  • AndyBeard · 2 years ago
    A community of 4 blogs, 3 being mine isn't Digg worthy

    Once it has grown, then it s time it might be worth a Digg, and I also plan to issue a press release.

    Great stuff Andy.

    This is a very interesting community as it is built around a mindset rather than a topic niche. I look forward to seeing how it shapes up.

    Being a long-time dofollow user, I'll submit my own blog.
  • AndyBeard · 2 years ago
    I think it has the potential to grow larger than the affiliate marketing community within a month, especially because so many of the affiliate marketing community have already been encouraged to go the dofollow route, and have seen benefits from it.

    Horizontal niches are often harder to target in conventional search engines, but in this case it is web 2.0 viral marketing.

    That looks like an excellent concept. I've signed up, and put my blog in for membership. Thanks for the pointer!
  • AndyBeard · 2 years ago
    I hope people will find it useful.

    I just dropped you a message with the Bumpzee message system. Your blog has nofollow on the links, thus it can't be accepted to the Dofollow community.

    Once you have taken care of the link, just drop me a note either here or on Bumpzee, and I can switch your site on.

    This doesn't prevent you joining other suitable communities.

    Me again.
    I'm not always successful at trackbacking, so I put my permalink to my post re: this Bumpzee community :-)
  • AndyBeard · 2 years ago
    Trackbacks work flawlessly on Wordpress, unless someone has hacked the code to make it harder.
    I know a few blogs that remove the automatic trackback discovery code, so that you have to add /trackback/ and actually enter a trackback URL into the box.

    The hardest blogs to trackback are running on Typepad and Moveable Type, as you have to copy a special trackback URL

    Andy, when I follow your link to the Bumpzee DoFollow community, I get this message: "We're sorry, the product or page you have reached is not available."

    I have set up a Bumpzee account, but I can't find the community that way either. When I checked on your profile, it claimed that the DoFollow community was "not active". Suggestions?
  • AndyBeard · 2 years ago
    I have been so busy trying to fix some extremely buggy code I didn't notice it go offline, and it didn't send a notification.

    I have sent a message to admin, hopefully it will be sorted out quickly.
  • AndyBeard · 2 years ago
    Either management kicked it back to life, or my tinkering in the backend and manually adding your blog kicked it to life. You will still need to join the actual community.
    I managed to fix my CSS too so we are winning already today and I have some other good news to announce.

    The Follow Me community is getting bigger and bigger. Since comment spam had to be filtered out by robots anyways, it only makes sense to let the comment links be followed.

    I think that it is funny how concern people get about spam with this concept of do-follow. I think that there are always going to be issues with spam. It is more important to help the honest people than to hold them back by trying to stop the spammers. That is why you have askimet and other anti-spam plugins. I think that we should look at good opportunities to build on content and network. What have you noticed as far as your own benefits?

    I'm going to go check out the Bumpzee Community too.
    I changed my blog to a do follow, but when I switched templates, the nofollow got put back in for a few weeks until I realized it! So it's fixed now.
    Thanks for bringing Bumpzee to my attention.

    Hi,

    Everybody loves links. Even the google bot, but it dies not like non- genuine links.

    For instance, some time ago, google had a controversy over following paid links.

    Now for a spider or a crawler to identify the paid links from non-paid is almost impossible.

    But in most CMS , including wordpress and blogspot, it is very easy to identify comments from content.

    do - follow may go void, if google thinks so.

    But still, it does good in the short term..
