Asking For Links On Social Media?

[Smithee]

Whilst promoting your site and networking with other bloggers on social media should you ask them to link to your site?

You don't promise to reciprocate in kind as this would be bad for your site. Sure it's possible that most won't bother to respond but it doesn't cost a thing to ask after all and the worst they can do is refuse [to link to your site].

Have any of you ever tried asking other bloggers to link to your sites?

I have many writer friends on facebook and twitter, however, I have never asked anyone to link back to my site. However, I have offered to write guest posts which got me backlinks for my site. However, I don't think there is any harm in askin for links
