Hey Dan. I own some pretty 'cool' content sites and I get emails like the ones you prescribe in your video all the time.
Know what I do? Hit trash every time.
Why? Because frankly I find it a bit offensive.
Reason being, I spend days creating my big articles. I spend hours on research, tweaking my copy. Finding the most relevant resources to link to.
So when someone emails me out of the blue saying:
…."Hi, I read your article and I think my resource is better than the ones you chose to put in your article. Please add my link…."
…I'm like: …. "No it's not. F*ck off. I spent days researching and writing this piece"
So, as a writer and publisher, as well as an SEO, I have no motivation to send out 200 emails telling people that I think they should re-edit their work to include a link to mine.
I think it's disrespectful, which is why I instantly trash any emails like this.
