There is a lot of opinions on whether you should ask other bloggers to exchange links or not. I have not personally asked any other blogger to link to me, but a couple of others have and I have obliged. For the most part my blogroll consists of bloggers that I read and I like what they are doing. One notable blog, Golbguru’s The Tao Of Making Money, I linked to for two reasons. One, he has great material. Second, he commented on several posts, which for a new blogger means a lot. Comments help drive traffic.

More established bloggers get these kinds of requests all the time because most people know that high traffic sites will not only drive traffic to your blog, but also help with Google rankings so these bloggers tend to only link to other prominent bloggers and those that they actually read.

AdesBlog has a nice article on how to write link exchange emails, but the question is, do you or have you asked for link exchanges? Do you get them and what do you do when you do get them?
