BLOGGERS: Add Yourself to the Free Republic Blog Directory

Posted on 07/13/2003 1:14 PM PDT by Political Numbers Guy
On Friday, I wrote a piece asking why Freepers don't get more involved in reading and writing blogs to expand Free Republic's influence in a growing medium that needs more conservative, pro-Bush voices. The response was phenomenal.
Click here to read the original thread, "Are Freepers Still Winning the Online War?"
One of the ideas that grew out of that thread was to start a Free Republic Blog Directory, or blogroll, as bloggers call it. From time to time, we will list all Freepers with blogs on threads like this to draw attention to their fine conservative writings. All Free Republic bloggers would then be encouraged to link to each of these sites -- and FreeRepublic.com, building a network and boosting traffic to all of these sites. More Links = More Readers visiting your site.
Here is the list so far of Freeper Bloggers. Click to visit their outstanding sites:
Cathryn Crawford
William McKinley
Regnum Crucis
Michael King
Federal Review
Hank's Blog
Imal
If you run a blog that's not on this list REPLY TO THIS THREAD to be added to the Free Republic Blogroll.
The purpose of this isn't just to promote existing conservative blogs that might get short shrift from many of the dominant libertarian blogs. It's to encourage prolific writers, commentators and other Freepers to start their own blogs so we can expand the conservative, pro-Bush blogosphere...

this PING list is for YOU! |
(If you want OFF - or ON - my "Hugh Hewitt PING list" - please let me know)
I'd be a lot more comfortable if Hewitt simply admitted up front why he wrote this article: Because Lileks's wife just got laid off from her job and they could desperately use the money that would come in if he got a better syndication deal.
Thanks for the pings, John.
But logrolling (or should I say blogrolling) articles like this just creep me out.Personally, I prefer the term "shameless self-promotion," but I am from the old "win, win" school that believes:
They're somewhere between pure advertisements and embarrassing butt-kissing...
"I plug you, you plug me - so let's SHARE OUR BOOKMARKS" in a cross-promotional synergy to insure our mutual karma enhancement. :o)Perhaps Hugh can help Lileks get into the "Top 100" blogs posted at www.blogrolling.com:
