If you fill out the posting info correctly, then the "Source" at the top will link to your site.

If you're forthcoming in posting your content, then nobody's going to give you grief about a link back to your blog.

If you really want synergy, then put a FreeRepublic backlink on your blog as well.

If you engage in meaningful interaction with the people who comment on your post, then they'll get the idea you want to become one of us. All warm fuzzies and smiles - until you say something someone disagrees with, at which point you can expect hellfire, brimstone, bloody evisceration, cats and dogs living together and the return of Gozer the Gozerian.

(...and you don't even want to know about the Viking Kitties!)

Sounds good.

The link back to Free Republic sounds fair.

I have a fully charged proton pack.

And I have a way with kitties - they’ll be purring so loud you’ll need earplugs...

Thanks for your responses.

I have a few of more questions, if you don't mind. I appreciate your spending the time on my education about FR etiquette.

My blog posts are generally related to my Nuclear Counterargument Book Series, and so links to specific book descriptions are included in the text. Is this a problem? Here are a couple of examples: Roundup of Liberal Apocalypses «  Deprogramming Liberalism and Intellectual Psychogump Plays Stupid Right Before Your Eyes «  Deprogramming Liberalism

Also, what about my Nuclear Counterarguments Book Series images inserted into my blog posts? Can I include them in the post on FR?

One more thing. I am not trying to be contentious. I surveyed a bunch of other FR posts in the Bloggers and Personal forum to get a feel for it, and stumbled across a number of recent posts that were blog post excerpts:

Let’s Get Real, General Powell….It IS about Race

Latest drawing The Vigilant

BENGHAZIGATE OBAMA WATCHED BENGHAZI ATTACK LIVE SAYS LT. COL. TONY SHAFFER

Hurricane Sandy Brings Out Last Minute Prepping

Did Obama Fire General Ham Of Africom For Attempting To Buck His Order And Rescue Stevens

General Petraeus It Wasn’t Me Or Anyone Else At The CIA

Gallup believes turnout may favor Romney in a BIG way

Obama's Declaration of Indpendence

I looked at the comments and no one complained about them being excerpts. Do they have special privileges because of being long-time members, or because they contribute monthly, or something. Again, I am not trying to be contentious - just trying to understand.

Thank you for your being patient with me.
