What is the typical response rate and success rate for email link requests?

What is considered the normal response rate and success rate of acquiring a link through email link requests?

It would depend on two things.

1. did they received your email?

2. Did they even bother opening and reading your email at all?

If you're able to satisfy the ones above then chances are you are almost 50% in having a good link.

...... it depends!

It depends on the industry you are targeting, the quality of your link requests (personalised, relevant etc.), how many sites you are targeting and their status in the industry, what the other players are doing and probably lots of other things...

I would be really hesitant to put a number on it, because it is depending on all these things. However, if you are writing personalised requests to relevant sites, and are offering some value to those you are requesting links from, then I'd say 1 in every 2 or 3 is a good hit rate to aim for initially if you want a target.
