Darren said: "I'm doing it right now. What a pain in the arse :)"

chris3471 said: "I not seeing blogroll, where is that? I see links."

Darren said: "Same thing. It's often referred to as a "BlogRoll"."

chris3471 said: "oh ok, thanks."

quinny said: "all done :D :D"

chris3471 said: "Done here too but I will have to do it again soon, moving the blog to a new server and starting with a fresh install, hopefully this will solve some of the problems I've been having like the freezing up when I publish or save."

SiteExpress said: "Hi guys. been a while since I posted, but Chris showed me your thread here, so I figured I should. You can put your blogs in my blog directory at [url]www.bloggeries.com[/url]. Also, I have a personal blog. Some days it is PR5, others it is back to 0. Just waiting on G to make up its mind. Its at [url]www.emtstories.com[/url]. If you want to include it, I will add you guys to the roll. Cheers!:D"

Darren said: "Okay, did you follow the concept of the network we're implementing? We'll link to you, you link back to all of us. We're also looking to make sure that everyone puts in a minimum of posts (like at least one a day) etc."

SiteExpress said: "I understand the concept, but no way I can do a post a day. I am lucky to write a couple new stories a month. Time just is not something I have much of. Bloggeries take most of it, as well as directory design for phpLD"

Heather said: "I have placed links at the PixieSpot. :)"

Bloggeries take most of it, as well as directory design for phpLD[/quote] An inactive blog won't work in this concept, because the main thing we're attempting to do is increase revenue. The main way to do that is add content. Fresh content = fresh spiders and fresh surfers to click on ads etc. However, I have a couple of other blogs that I don't update very frequently. If you want to Blogroll (crosslink) those, we can."

SiteExpress said: "Lol that's fine. by the way. My "Inactive Blog" [IMG]http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b171/olmedic1/emt.jpg[/IMG]"

Darren said: "I'm sure you knew what I meant about "inactive". I've maintained blogs for about a year now, but most of them I post in once a month. So there isn't a ton of traffic coming into them. The concept for me with the Blog network is to show up on the radar quickly because of activity. 8 Blogs being update daily creates a quick 240 pages of content per month. If people update the output to 2 it would be 480. And so on and so on. With a ton of link popularity, the new content pages should get ranked very quickly and bring in even more readers. But like I said, I also have a few that aren't updated often, so we can do the same thing with those on a less active scale."

SiteExpress said: "hehe, yes I know what you meant by inactive. my post above was just being exuberant. I dont try to do much with emtstories. It really is mostly a place for me to vent my frustrations about my former career. i would be happy to link to whatever you got. Like I said before. Submit them to my blog directory as well. It gets about 4k uniques a month, and is doing quite well."

Darren said: "I'm glad to hear it's going well for you. Thanks for the kind offer and we'll submit and exchange today."

SiteExpress said: "I formed a seudo network with a couple of other people for bloggers. One of the guys in our network owns Blogmosh. I get quite a few visits from it, if you guys are interested in something like that, I do recommend it. It's a traffic exchange for blogs. [URL="http://blogmosh.com/Surf/ReferInline.php?ID=105"]here is my referral code. :D[/URL]"

Darren said: "I believe I've added all of the links so far. I'll go through and double check. I'm also adding RSS feed subscriptions at Bloglines.com"

Heather said: "Talking Techs has been updated as well.."

edwin said: "this really makes me wish i had a non-porn website! :)"

chris3471 said: "You could always get one. I have an adult site I'm working on as well, well it's not a typical adult site it's a project I'm working on for selling adult dvds but it's on hold at the moment.:eek:"

Darksat said: "Ok im in, Links added. Ready to rock."

Darren said: "Alright, we'll start updating on this end. Welcome aboard to our newest Blogger."

chris3471 said: "So do we have a central location where all the links will be other than this thread? I can just see us spending hours sifting through posts here to try and find them all as time passes."

Darksat said: "We should really have an automated system to update the links."

Darren said: "Absolutely, especially as we get bigger which is inevitable. Any suggestions. BTW, when everyone gets a chance, register an account at Blog-Republic.com. Everyone will be able to post there also, and I'd like to have "Author Profiles" for each blogger. We are now 5 bloggers strong, and this didn't even exist as idea 48 hours ago, so I'm loving how fast we're putting this together."

chris3471 said: "This is good, 5 bloggers and how may blogs? By my count I think 10 am I right? Will be one more in a day or two since I'm brainstorming to try and figure out what I want to do with my other blog. Hmmm, actually it's more like a thunder storm than a brain storm. Also I just wrote a quick post just so everyone will still get the link, it's not much but I just felt like writing something and something is allways better than nothing right."

Darren said: "I think we're near 10? LOL, we need to automate is right :)"

SiteExpress said: "If you guys make a little banner or something, I would be happy to put it on the new Bloggeries for you. How about something no wider than 150? Something like, "Join a network of Bloggers", u get the idea."

Darren said: "[img]http://www.web-mastery.net/images/blog125.gif[/img] That one is 125 x 125."

SiteExpress said: "That will work fine. As soon as my dang domain propogates! I think it has already propogated for most people, as my stats are way down today. Just not for me!"

Darren said: "Thanks for the help. I get 72.29.90.31 for your IP."

SiteExpress said: "That is the correct IP for the server I am moving to. The thing is, I dont have anything uploaded on it yet. It should be an empty server."

Darren said: "Yep, sure is. And this IP came up on 2 seperate networks."

chris3471 said: "It hasn't propagated for me either."

chris3471 said: "Great idea, I don't have access to phpmyadmin yet, or ftp either but I will."

SiteExpress said: "Arg! I cannot believe how long it is taking this dumb thing to resolve for me."

Darren said: "I thought long propogation times were a thing of the past. Apparently someone is cacheing the DNS for too long."

SiteExpress said: "I dunno what they are doing, but I am about to drive there and flip the switch myself. LOL"

Darksat said: "Its probably not a switch, but go for it anyway."

Darren said: "Driving in only helps if you look threatening."

SiteExpress said: "I will bring my wife then.:D:D:D"

chris3471 said: "Oh, that's terrible Jamey."

SiteExpress said: "Haha, i know. But I would bring her anyway. I take her every place I go. keeps me from having to kiss her gbye"

SiteExpress said: "I just called my neighbor. He sees Bloggeries just fine!!!"

chris3471 said: "And you don't yet????"

SiteExpress said: "I cant even get the mail on the new server yet. Still resolves to old server for me."

Heather said: "That is sweet, Sitepoint :)"

chris3471 said: "Well sometimes it does take up to 48 hours to resolve."
