Do you want the job done right, or do you want it done fast?

Only thing I can suggest is to make your grouping organized (should be anyways) in a reasonable way. I would also suggest balancing out big LL's with smaller ones but I know many LL's prefer to exist with at least one or two active bigger ones...it helps with evenily building traffic with everyone, where later in time, this becomes a benefit.

I know there is a HUGE list of LL's to look at when you see the list here at GG & Jim, or even places like thelinkmachine.com and it can be confusing to really know which ones are really the better. Not necessarily traffic-wise, but also for knowing which ones actually put effort into their LL and have a good sense of business or even customer service (do they help webmasters with problems or potential problems, or do they ignore everyone).

Using alexa to check traffic only shows a portion of the real traffic and should not really be used as an accurate tool for this purpose. This only shows those who are listed with Alexa and also for those who use the Alexa toolbar as well.

Grouping and creating a select list of link sites is something that develops overtime. Networking is key as well...get to know your LL owners, as Surfn said, "Friends prefer to be listed with friends".

You probably already know this as well, but when you do your recip tables, make sure they are either all text links, or all banners, or all text banners....eg: some will not like it if you give others banners but the one only a text link.
