As with all blogs and other sites, getting your name out there is important so people come and read it. I am listed on several blog sites.
Yesterday I tried to submit the site to the BritBlog site. My submission was turned down because of a reason. They would not give me one, they send out a stupid generic mail.
I gave the reciprocal link to their site (now removed from mine) which they require. My site is a blog. The say the site has to be a blog. You can leave comments and get an RSS feed, which they require. It does not forward to another site. It has to be run by a Brit. I think I have that one down. Infact, the list is fairly huge. Not too many ads, I have none. No pornography. Nope. Not a commercial site. Nope. In the About me section, it says I am an Englishman. The email address I submitted on was a personal .co.uk domain and not a freebie hotmail.co.uk type address.
I wrote an email to the site saying I would get a tattoo of the George Cross on my arse and post it, but that seems a touch excessive to getting a linking on a little site which is obviously going to amount to nothing. I got a bounceback saying the mailbox was full.
So. If you are a Brit, or indeed NOT a Brit. Don’t waste your time trying to submit your site. It seems that the site admin is a bit “out there”. Although I am thinking that the admin is probably not even British. More then likely an immigrant who thinks that because I can speak English, that I am not a true Brit.
On the boat you get Mr Sweeting. Your lift to a new life awaits.
