Prozone Pool Products
Link Exchange Policy
Link exchanges should be mutually beneficial to both
parties. We have far too often encountered situations in which webmasters
requesting a link exchange have a site not meeting our link exchange
requirements or have not followed proper link exchange etiquette, thereby
costing us considerable wasted time and effort. We have therefore established
this link exchange policy to specify what kinds of Web site we can accept and
our link quality requirement when you put our link on your site.
If your business does not meet the following criteria, but you feel a link
exchange would be beneficial for both of us, send us an e-mail or give us a
call.
We don't create links just for links or search engine spiders. Instead, we
regard links as important content to recommend to our visitors. Prozone Pool
Products is proud of its Web site and constantly strives to improve its
quality. Therefore, we are quite selective with respect to Web sites we accept
for our link exchange partnership. We constantly seek quality sites as
reciprocal link exchange partners to benefit our visitors.

and comply with the following partnership qualification and link quality
requirements.
