Hey there 👋

If you build links for real (and not just talk about it) I’m sure you are very familiar with this reply:

“Sure, I’ll add your link…. if you link back to me.”

Everyone debates reciprocal linking in theory. But no one talks about the messy reality we hit in our inbox every single day.

Is it a link scheme?
Is it natural?

Will I get penalized?
Is it even possible?

Who’s getting the better end of the deal?

I just released a short, practical take on how to handle reciprocal link requests like a pro. No scare tactics, no fluff, just what actually matters when you’re in the trenches.

Read the article here (https://theupperranks.com/blog/reciprocal-links/) and let me know what you think, especially if you’re wrestling with these requests yourself.
