There have been a couple threads recently regarding what swedguy has dubbed NexGen(TM) reciprocal links.

These threads:
http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/...threadid=14050
http://www.greenguysboard.com/board/...threadid=14333

Now, since I'll be rolling out a new link list in the next couple months and I'm considering what to do with my recips, I've got a question for all the freesite submitters here. I know full well I may end up tossed under a bus for this, but here goes.

Most LLs have gone to niche recips to enhance link relevance and improve SE rankings. This is of course somewhat of a pain in the ass for submitters, but in the end helps everyone with increased SE traffic. The NexGen(TM) recips swedguy originally brought up are a single general recip with 10-15 outbound category specific links in them in size 1 type.

This of course makes the recip code-heavy, but it gives the LL multiple category links with good anchor text and gives submitters a single recip instead of a different one for every category. This makes everything more convenient, and of course eliminates declining links due to the wrong recip (which was stated as a top reason for declines in another recent thread).

So what do you think? Given the choice, would you rather have one code-heavy recip table to worry about with 10-15 links coming out of it, or niche recips with a couple links that are more relevant to the content of your freesite?

Most LL owners are also freesite submitters (including myself), so what do you guys think about all this. I know this thread has the potential to degenerate pretty quickly, but I'm hoping for a real discussion on the topic.

Inquiring minds want to know.
