WWM Plants Safe for Koi Ponds Broken Links, and a new link to
add 7/12/19
Hello!
I wanted to reach out on behalf of your pond links page
http://www.wetwebmedia.com/PondSubWebIndex/pondlinks.htm Over the
winter and spring I studied and worked extremely hard to build and
maintain a koi pond. My backyard is now my favorite place to be, and I
love my fish. They have gotten so big and the flowers around it are
blooming just right.
<Ah, nice>
A few weeks ago, when I stumbled onto your page and bookmarked it
because I wanted to find plants that could actually go in my pond.
(Something other than lily pads.) So thank you for having all that
information! It was the perfect start for me, and I appreciate it a ton!
Although, I did want to let you know that I found a broken page,
it's labeled "Koi Net." It's right at the top of the page.
While I was searching, I ended up coming across another page that goes
in-depth on the benefits of pond plants, I never really put two and two
together, but the shade from the plants reduces the grow rate of algae,
which is awesome!
<Will look... links pages are a bane of websites; requiring a good deal
of maintenance>
I ended up digging out a small plant shelf and once I got the plants
into the pond, I could tell my koi were interested. They started
swimming all around and on top of the different plants, they look
gorgeous! The page also gave a great list of plants, but more focuses on
getting them into your pond. (Which I didn't have one plant die.) I
thought because both pages were beyond beneficial to me, that your users
might like the one I found, It's
http://www.avasflowers.net/plants-for-koi-ponds and I
think it'll make a great addition to your page, if you wanted to add it.
My pond and garden is now my backyard oasis and I couldn't be happier.
<Ahh, thank you for this; will add>
Thank you again for all the help!

looking for link placement 3/8/17
I'm looking to contact the person responsible for maintaining the Wet
Web Media website. I'm contacting you regarding your Pond Related Links
to Aquatic Internet Sites webpage. I'd like to propose including
Blue Haven Pools & Spas <https://www.bluehaven.com/ > in your
list.

exceptional value, and the best warranties in the industry.

They also enjoy our high-tech Smart Features that automate care,

Your feedback would certainly be appreciated.
<Do these franchisees build biological ponds? Bob Fenner>
Thanks,

Pond Supply Resource Suggestion
12/23/16
Hi there,
<Hey Beth>
I saw you have some awesome pond supply resources on your website here,
(http://www.wetwebmedia.com/pondsubwebindex/pondlinks.htm ), and I
wanted to make another suggestion for that list if you are open to it.
It is Aquatic Ponds which you can check out here,
(http://www.aquaticponds.com/ ). I think
this would be a useful and relevant addition to your existing list.
Please let me know your thoughts. I hope to hear from you soon!
All the best,
Beth Greene

Hello Robert,
<Kristy>
Just wanted to start off by commending you on all of the great work on
http://www.wetwebmedia.com/pondsubwebindex/pdfshbreefaqs.htm.
We've created a website, http://nextdaykoi.com
, that we think could offer your audience an additional resource for information
about Koi.
<Will look>
It offers broad range of high-quality, live koi and goldfish for sale and is
full of useful, well-researched tips and articles—like this one about judging
standards for koi: <https://nextdaykoi.com/koi-fish-facts/judging-koi-fish/ >
<Ahh!>
With all of our great resources and products available to complement yours, we
thought that by sharing our site with your audience (or by adding it to the
resources/links section of your website,
http://www.wetwebmedia.com/pondsubwebindex/pdfshbreefaqs.htm . you can boost
your site's already
robust content.
Let us know if we can help you!

Hello,
<Hey Brittany>
I just wanted to shoot you a quick message and let you know that I
encountered a broken link while on the wetwebmedia.com site today. I'm
not sure if there's a specific person to contact or a form for
submitting broken links, but if you could let me know I'll gladly send
that information along.
<Please do... running the diagnostic tool for these (there are a few
hundred thousand such links on the site) reveals more than I can keep up
with. But "important" ones need to be fixed. Cheers, Bob Fenner>
Thanks! J
Re: Where do I report a broken link on your website?
5/23/13
Hello Bob,
<Brit>
The broken links I came across were on your page at:
http://www.wetwebmedia.com/PondSubWebIndex/pondlinks.htm.
<Ahh, the site to site link pages...>
Here are the ones
that weren't working for me:
Internet Pond Society
Central Illinois Water Gardeners
Koi Society of Australia
Lee's Koi Corner
I hope that was helpful, I know what a pain it is to keep up with broken
links!
<Ah yes>
I don't know if you're looking to add new links, but if you are, please
have a look at www.thepondshop.com - some friends of mine recently
launched a site selling a lot of pond and water garden supplies so I
thought it might be something your readers would be interested in.

Hi there,
<Suzy>
I've been trying to find some information on koi ponds (we're
building one in our yard this spring!), and I happened to stumble
across your page
http://www.wetwebmedia.com/PondSubWebIndex/pondlinks.htm during my
research. Wanted to let you know that your page was great! I noticed
that you are linking to http://w3.one.net/~rzutt/ - but that link
doesn't seem to be working anymore.
<Ahh, happens>
Since your page was so useful to me, in return I'm happy to suggest
a replacement link, or at the very least another good resource to
add:
http://www.homeservicesengine.com/articles/tips_home_koi_ponds.html
It contains some great information on building a pond, adding koi, and
lots of other great resources. Hopefully you and your visitors will
find the page as helpful as I did :)

Re: link for $ inquiry 4/4/08 Hi Bob, yes I would
ask you to link a specific word to www.gardensupermart.com, that word
would directly relate to the theme and nature of the page it's link
to. For example, on your page:
http://www.wetwebmedia.com/ca/volume_2/cav2i3/Garden_Pond_files/The_Outdoor_Garden_Pond.htm,
in the first paragraph I would ask for the word 'garden ponds'
to link to gardensupermart.com's home page (mostly related to
garden ponds). That's basically the idea. If you would link that
word that would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if you have
any more questions. Shawn <Gladly done. Good luck to you in your
business endeavours. BobF>

traffic. We are devoted to providing valuable information to
those interested in learning more about landscaping through water
gardening. We already have published over 100 related

linking partnerships with other quality related websites. I wonder if
