As some of you may know, I have surfed the web and
collected links since 1995
Some facts:
- New members come to WPW asking for link exchange with no information in their profiles. I would not even think of exchanging links and link to some of them. May be the TOS / Guidelines should be changed or there should be a sticky post in addition to this that may be less relevant today than when it was launched 04-08-2005, 06:39 PM.
- Some of them disappear after a few posts.
- Before asking for link exchange, they should test their site with this Google Safe Browsing diagnostic page for digitalstart.net/ tool where you replace digitalstart.net with your site.
- I persoanlly collect links in the following categories:
1 - 2 -3 - 4 - 5 Where links that I regard as most reliable are put in category 1.
Under construction
Suspect
More specific categories
Uncategorized but seems interesting
- Personally I find few or no sites of value in the Link Exchange subforum. May be I visit it one time a year or less.
