You really should not be doing this at all. It is specifically against SE's TOS. If you do enough recip linking to be of benefit for SERPs you will likely end up penalized.

Hi James...Sorry, not true. If you do reciprocal linking at a modest level it will help you. I am not interested in doing say 100 in a day or to new sites. I am interested in good backlinking. for that you will not be penalized. I have 2 other websites not related to RE and they are first page of google on my targeted keywords. I have been there for 3 years so I would have to oppose the statement that it penalizes you.

Well, "convince a man against his will and he will have the same opinion still," guess you have your mind made up. But, if you think that you could be mistaken and want to do more due diligence go ahead and head over to realestatewebmasters.com/forum.php and ask about reciprical linking. They will tell you that any linking that is done to manipulate rankings can and most likely will get panalized.

Yeah, I think, if reciprocal linking is done in moderation, it will help.
Otherwise, it would lead to getting a penalty.
