What do people think is the best way to exchange links with other sites? Many (including Elated) go for the "two-tier" approach of having button exchanges with high-traffic sites on the front page, coupled with a more general links page for other sites that want to swap links.
How do you strike a balance between linking to sites that are good and relevant to your visitors, but that don't offer much traffic back in return, and linking to sites that are high-traffic but maybe not so relevant or useful to visitors?
I like having links pages containing other sites that we think are relevant to the Toolbox, but it's very time-consuming to maintain, and doesn't bring in much traffic. Sometimes it's tempting to leave this sort of business to the search engines and directories, and just have the high-traffic exchanges on the site!
