What is it about third party linking that so great about it?

I HAVE HAD IT!!!
Sorry but I am so sick and tired of third party link swapping requests!
Don't you realize that
the only site that helps is NOT yours or mine? I get requests for link swapping all the time
because Overallbeauty.com has a great Google Ranking. (Thanks Google 4/10 is great for a
three year old site) I have worked really hard at creating and maintaining a site that is worth
your time to visit it and buy beauty products off. I have articles and even poetry, quotes
and really awesome gift ideas.
I don't want to waste my time on sites that think using a third party linking is the way to go!
Example http://www.topsiteseeker.com I just got a link request from someone who uses this
site for swapping links. Where on there does it say who owns it? Plus the only thing it offers is links.
OPPS sorry looks like a link farm to me. Now I am sure its a nice site and it belongs to some great
people but its only links and I don't think it a site that I want my site involved with. And to top
that it has NO GOOGLE RANKING!! Which means if I link with it that could bring my own google ranking down. NOPE no can do!
Lesson for the day.
The whole idea about linking with other sites is to improve your standing with the major search engines and so that your customers if they can't find what they are looking for on your site and go off to one of your linking partners to hopefully find there what they are looking for. It makes everyone happy. Now linking farms want those visitors because they usually have something on there that makes them money. Ads etc. Fine great for them but it doesn't do a damn bit of good for sites like mine.
I won't do third party linking and do me a favor QUIT asking!! OK I done you have a wonderful day everyone and do stop by Overallbeauty.com and see if I got what you are looking for. If not ask me I may have it I just haven't added it to the site yet. ;)
I am going to go get more coffee before I bite someone....
