The Latest Blogging Scheme

Posted on August 7, 2006 in Blogging Strange

There seems to be a new trick that some bloggers are using to get traffic: they post the URL of your site on their blog for long enough for a search engine to turn it up and for WordPress to catch it to put up in your Dashboard. By the time you get around to checking their blog, the link is gone.

I suppose the idea is to trick you into thinking that they’ve linked you for good. Unfortunately, bubbies, it doesn’t work. I don’t care about your right wrong wing politics and I don’t care about fox terriers either. No respectful, topical link: no link back from here.
