Waiting trades

It's time to take action V. I am sick of working to submit trades and they are not reviewed. It's getting to a point where i no longer use linkspun for links because it's useless.

PEOPLE DO NOT REVIEW THEIR TRADES.

And if they do they cancel them ... just because.

Something needs to be done, i don't want linkspun dead but it sure as hell going in that direction, at least for me. The past 6 months i have been struggling to keep my actual trade number, forget about having new trades done. It's pointless.

Yeah, that's because a lot of wm's put their shitty sites with 1 page or something like to trade and keep the goods sites hidden...

I agree. I deny most of the trades because of there are almost all shitty, worthless sites which I could choose to get a link back from them. But it's another problem...

Some people have tons of trades in the backlog to process - others sit and wait for the next request ... either way, I cant really see how waiting for a response to a request is somehow any kind of problem ... no links have been added, nothing agreed.

Also ... if you got a nice choice of quality links that people actively crave backlinks from - thats probably the most efficient way of speeding up things and landing some nice trades. If you offer little that people really want, you will always be more likely to go on the backburner and/or get bulk rejected.

It's not a problem per se, it is a problem for me though, i have hundreds of trades sent the past year, i am sick of working and sending a lot of trades and getting response for a just a few, its a HUGE waist of time and energy and there are already a thousand things to do to keep up with the search engines....

Agree here! It's quite a work to search some good sites, research the anchor and the not getting any response back... And in the end it's the webmasters who complain that they've lost rankings... well if you don't put any effort into it, that's what you're gonna get...

It is getting more difficult to get trades, but what "action" can be taken? You can't force people to accept trades.
This month I've been doing 150 requests nearly everyday and had about 100 accepted, about 10%

We've got 30+ trades but you can request a bunch more from me if you like.
