Example of outreach emails?
-
Can anyone give me an example of an outreach email to a blogger? I have a blog post on my site called "How To Clean An Entire House In 60 Minutes" and I'm outreaching this content to home decor bloggers.
What would be an example of a good outreach email?

This is the best advice I have found. http://moz.com/blog/what-separates-a-good-outreach-email-from-a-great-one-whiteboard-friday
Funny note, I used that advice to outreach to Rand one time and it worked.

Outreach, Relationships and Link Development
We are a small inbound marketing team working in a very competitive industry with sites across the globe. We work very hard on our content marketing and social media and find that we are lacking manpower when it comes to outreach to third party sites and industry leaders... We were thinking of hiring a number of freelance marketers (individuals not agencies) to help us with this task. Does anyone have any experience with similar issues? Have you worked with freelancer marketers or agencies globally? Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Non-profit link outreach with limited resources
Our competitive metrics are good but we need to increase our linking root domains to beat our competitors and climb a few critical positions in the SERPs. We have drawn up a link-building strategy based on Moz's very helpful guide, and begun trying outreach. We're a non-profit and the content we are pushing is blog content like this, in-depth articles like this (which, incidentally, do well in search), and we're also going to start creating more infographics and other types of content to try to generate some traction that way. However, based on the success of the campaign so far, it seems unlikely we'll acquire links at the rate we need to in order to keep up with our competitors, particularly given that we only have three people who can spend time on this (at a total of around 1.5 days per week). Clearly this is something we need to persevere with and integrate into our normal content cycle, but I can't see us picking up more than a dozen or so links a year unless something unexpectedly goes viral! It seems like link outreach is so common that it's very hard even to get link targets to engage with you on social media. People just see it as spam. It would be interesting to hear what other people have done successfully to help us figure our what a realistic approach to link building looks like.

Phone Call or Email Better
Hello, I had a Moz associate look at our niche, and he suggested using phone calls and emails for outreach. We are marketing an article that appeals to the humanitarian side of the organizations and companies we're contacting. We're contacting sites that are already listing useful articles. When you have the choice between a phone call or an email for outreach, which do you choose? The emails would be personalized, to a specific person when possible, and letting them know that we are a reciprocator by sharing across social channels and/or blog post commenting for them. The phone calls would be to the companies' general contact numbers. Which do you do first?

Do you have PA and DA minimums for link building outreach?
Hi all! I'm putting together a list of sites I want to attack for link building. I'm looking at my competitors while also seeking specific sites I know would work well to link to us. My question is, since this is very time-consuming, do you have a minimum PA and/or DA that you require in order to perform manual link-building outreach. For example, if a site has a DA below X and PA below X, what would X have to be for you to not consider it worth your time. I'm just trying to gauge where my efforts will be best spent and trying to get some benchmarks. Thanks!

Hello Forum, We're about to embark on a link building campaign and were curious about how long, on average, it takes to get a response to an email requesting links to our page. We're trying to come up with a timeline estimate for our campaign. Thanks

Share your favourite link exchange template email with us!
Hey Mozzers, I've been working on a bunch of different templates lately to approach various companies in our industry for link exchanges. But I'm somewhat stumped on what the best approach would be. I want to convey the message that a link exchange would be beneficial to their ranking in search engines, but I don't want to come off sounding overly spammy. Do you have a template that you have found worked well for you? Share it with us!
