At the end of the day, what I'm talking about is segmenting your marketing database, into users, and potential link builders with 1 extra field that 99.9% of people don't need to pay any attention to (your words). As I've already stated, enterprise software, and loads of others already ask for a number of qualifying fields for leads, and this would be a simple extension for many. I have in the past, received emails along the lines of 'As someone who has written about us before - we'd like to introduce our new product'. Which have been gratefully received. It's common sense to build relationships with the people who can help launch other products, or help you announce features. If encouraging businesses to market more efficiently to bloggers is selfish. Well. I'm guilty.
