The spam email arrives offering to place paid text link ads on one of our websites:
I am interested in purchasing textlink advertising on your website: blog.belizetotal.comI am interested in placing paragraphs on specific pages. An example of this can been seen at bottom of this page, after the content area: http://www.globenotes.com/About.aspx
another example: http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2007/05/10/70 -expert-ideas-for-better-css-coding/ (below the blog post and above the comments)
The paragraph will be custom written to match the content of the site and you will have the right to edit anything. The textlinks will go to non spammy and related websites.
However, since these links are on specific pages. I would be paying only one time fees and the paragraphs will stay permanent i-e as long as the page stays however, I would be purchasing many of these and it would be a good amount.
Let me know if interested and we can discuss further details. I can make a good offer to make it worth your time.
Let me know!
Thanks

[My emphasis]At the first glance this looks almost ok, as they want to put ads on specific pages and the links will be "non spammy". Interesting coming some spam (ie: unsolicated email that is not relating to any business transaction and doesn't seem to comply with the can spam act.
The examples shown are on some "inside pages", but are completely unrelated to the topic of Belize. Additionally, the website listed at the bottom, Analogwire is also completely unrelated to belize.
I decided to present a counter offer, a much better off one that is free! ie: I would offer her a free text link, an offer I think would be difficult to refuse.
