As a blogger, one of the goals you aim for is to write such good content that other people will link to you and your posts of their own free will. It’s a wonderful warm feeling to find genuine, well thought out comments on blog posts that you put a lot of effort into, but it’s even better to see an ‘incoming link’ that someone has posted about your blog because they liked what they saw.
Wordpress blogs (like this one) have a nifty little feature on their dashboard which will show recent links that take people to your blog, and you can click them to see where your blog is linked to from other blogs, forum posts etc.
Some of the links coming to my blogs I could live without. They’re things like ‘A list of Entrecard blogs’ or they’re links that I have posted myself. These sort of incoming links aren’t all that rewarding.
It’s links with names like ‘what a beautiful little blog’ that really make a blogger’s heart sing. Links like this one also lift my spirits, because it’s just such a wonderful thing to get feedback and know that what you’ve written has affected someone, somehow.
It makes this blogger very happy ![]()
