Is someone trying to find websites selling links?

Posted by Wildfire Marketing Group

Below is an email I received regarding a website that we have been working on…could it be the staff at the search engines trying to learn which websites are selling links or is it more likely just automated link-trade spam? My vote is for the latter, but either choice is highly likely.  

Dear Hi,

This is mark. I am webmaster of a few business-based sites. While looking for more business related sites, I came across www.somewebsite.com (not the real URL). I found your site very pleasing and would love to purchase text-links to my sites on it.

Please do come back on this with your views.

Awaiting your response,

Mark
