Funny Link Request
I have just started to put in place a directory of UK web designers and yesterday I got my 1st request for a listing:
“Hi there,
Please can you put my design company into your Directory for Yorkshire. We are a newly established business but have a successful record so far! Our website is being built at the moment (funny how you can design everyone else’s website and never find time for your own!).
Our address:
Unit 4 Amber Business Centre, Rawmarsh road, Rotherham, S60 1RU.
Kind Regards,
Candice Link
Managing Director
JEWEL Cre@tive Ltd”
Her last name is link, how awesome is that for link requests? I was so impressed with her last name, I told her she could have a listing immediately, even though I have not properly launched the dir yet.
Candice’s website, Jewel Creative will be online soon.

My first instinct would have been “that’s a made-up name!”
Maybe a mixed blessing for link requests if people make that assumption and don’t bother to check.
Nice redesign btw David, looks slicker now

I would have questioned it, but I don’t think she was too interested in the actual link. I got the feeling that it was more the exposure she was looking for.

Attention Seeker Perhaps?

Ha ha, you guys crack me up, it’s not THAT funny. I guess I am a bit of an Attention Seeker – need exposure in the big WWW!
Anyway, glad my surname has amused you! Check out my new website http://www.FindYourEngineer.co.uk – what do you think? Working on the seo stuff now. BYE! Mrs Link.
