What’s a blogroll?
Essentially, a list of blogs. Blogrolls allow a blog’s owner to feature a list of favorite blogs, usually in the sidebar. One might consider blogrolls to be a sort of the new “link exchange” programs. The biggest difference is that all sites who participate benefit from the added exposure of being displayed on another member’s site. It’s a good way to gain new readers and repeat visitors for your blog.
Blogrolls can also be used to express connections between blogs. By having a blogroll on your site, you are tell your visitors:
- “Here are other blogs that I like — check ‘em out, you may like them too.”
- “Here is my community — I belong to this group.”
- (When linking to other blogs) “I like your site and I think my visitors will too.”
How did this site come about?
I enjoy adding blogrolls to many of my sites. However, I found it increasingly hard to find blogrolls pertaining to certain topics and have yet to see a directory or index of blogrolls that are out there, available to everyone. So I decided to make my own.
