The D List

April12

I installed the do follow plugin here last week, and the fabulous Colleen of the remarkable Geeky Speaky had the most wonderful idea that it would be a good thing to let the blog-world know who gives link love back to their commenters. Accordingly, she started the “D-list”. To be part of the D-list, you must use some sort of do follow in your comments. There are several wordpress plugins to do that, and several other blogging platforms allow it as well.

***Begin Copying Here***
1.Write a short paragraph at the beginning of your post and link back to the blog that put you on the list in the paragraph. This isn’t a suggestion. You need to break up the duplicate content. Someone took the time to add you so the least you can do is give them an extra link back.
2. Copy the list of originals below COMPLETELY and add it to your blog. If you would like a different keyword for your blog then change it when you do your post and it should pass to most blogs with that keyword.
3. Take the adds from the blog that added you and place them in the “Originals” list.
4. Add at least 1 new blog that you KNOW is using the DO FOLLOW plugin to the list in the “My Adds” section. (Add no more than 5!) Let the people you’ve added know, so that they can keep the list going!
5. Leave relevant comments on the blogs listed and get a link back to your site thanks to Do Follow!
My Adds:

Ang’s Chicken Coop

The Originals:

    The D-List is great! It really reinforces comments, and rewards the commentor with some link love. I love it!

    Great for newer bloggers to the scene like me to build a little extra traffic and pagerank.

    The I Follow Phenomenon…

    A while back, in response to a post on Beta Blogger 4 Dummies, we removed the “nofollow” attribute from our html code to allow search spiders to find comments posted here.

    The “do follow” movement has picked up steam in a major way. Randa Clay c…

I'm Cass. I am a full-time mom to eight great children, a Christian and a blogger. I'm also a knitter, a reader and a movie watcher. And a collector of eclectic oddities.

For the first time in 18 and a half years, I have my own little corner again. Somewhere along the way, I seem to have lost myself, and now that I realize I'm missing, I'm on the look out for me. You maybe don't know what that means, but then again, maybe you do. Regardless, this is where I'll be when I'm not being a mother or a knitter. This is where I'll be just me. And if no one ever reads it, that's ok. I'll know it's here.
