I noticed that another reason why my blog is taking forever to load is the number of blogs on my blog list. It is more than 50 I think. So for better loading I decided to delete the blog roll, OK not yet done with it, and made a separate post about it. Hey you, don’t panic yet, it is not as if I am erasing your link on my blog.
OK first thing, first.. a blog roll is a list of your favorite blogs with a feed on it. It means that when ever your favorite blog updates, it will be on top of your list, or whatever the settings of your list. So I thought that this a good way to catch my blogger friend’s post, opps, not. Now that I have like more than 50 blogs on the list, I can’t keep up to it (not to mention it is eating up a part of my loading time). I realized too that it is not actually a back link, it is just a way to tell your friends that, hey you..I have a new post! and hope that she would click on your site..
So what I am trying to tell you?
Since there is a thing about following a blog, I made it a point that I FOLLOW all the blogs on my list (yeah including blogs not hosted on blogger). How to do that? Easy, just go to your dashboard and on the lower left is the list of the blogs you are following, just add a new site to it and voila! And since there is a reading list of all the blogs I am following, there is no way that I would miss your post (except if I feel like sleeping instead of blogging).
What will happen to the list on my blog roll?
For a stronger kind of back link, I will make a separate page for that.. I decided to stress myself a bit (it is as if having three rowdy, er, four, boys are not stressful enough) and categorize all the blogs on my list. If time and my patience will allow, I might come up with this on Monday.
I am thinking of making a small introduction on each site on my list and mention at least two back links.. when I am done, I will get back to you and please give me a feedback on how cool my idea was. ehek. I mean if I put you on the right category and if you are happy with my introduction.. and so on..
Enough blabbing.. I still have 20 or more to categorize..
