I am aware that you claim not to get get paid by the hit for clicks on your blog.
If that is true, and if you are proud of your work and believe the story worth discussing, then why not post it, in its entirety, here?
(And if it’s not too much, could I suggest a link back to FR on your blog? Reciprocity is a good thing!)
I have a link to Free Republic under Essential Sources and it has been there for about three years.
I have the option to give an excerpt.
I know of no blogs that get paid for hits. Some do get paid when keywords and/or affiliate links within an article are clicked. I do not do that. I have never done that. My blog is a news and opinion blog.
