Don't say "can you link to me" but, rather, "I love what you're doing" or "dig your latest entry, but did you think about..." or similar. Show you're paying attention to them and use that as the basis of the relationship you build with bloggers. :-) Remember, the more visible the blogger (just like anyone in the public eye) the more you can appeal to them by stroking their ego.

And try to position yourself in the 'scene', that means (at least in my case) also mailing a lot with other bloggers, not to directly promote your post, but just to get the feeling of mutual respect. So my tip would be start out giving other blogs (and bloggers) time and attention and it will pay back in the long run (and hey that's where you are there for, the long run) Two more would be, know that even famous bloggers are people too, so instead of just sending them a mail, hi, could you link my cool blog (although it might work), try to let them know you are out there, and just make a habit of giving a regular comment on their articles (do make sense though) After a few weeks, they get to know you, and are way more likely to listen to you and give you some attention.
