This post has multiple points; lets get to it…

As you know, I do a DSWM link round-up each month in case you’re new and missed or old and forgot (now there’s a play on words). There wasn’t a lot this month, but a few good points still relevant…

Google-Feedburner/CommentLuv Snafu - The Solution (27) - If you’re wondering why the plugin is not showing your latest link.

New Comment Policy - You Want To Read This (76) - Always a good idea.

Twitter Gone! (54) - Account deleted but not forever.

Guest Bloggers Wanted/Needed Right Here (33) - Hellooooo, anyone home?

Your Thoughts Are Wanted On My Other Two Blogs (15) - One post on each blog that could use your input.

Top Commenter Contests - Officially Speaking… (29) - Revealing my new Rules & Tips page.

———————————–

Some may feel a bit slighted, but I believe the majority will be OK…or even better. I’ll get straight to the point with explanation to follow. Unfortunately sole Twitter followers (those not subscribed to the blog) will NOT have their Twitter link permanently in place, as originally planned.

This is something I have been thinking about since before I even put up the original post. Among other things, my one worst fear has come to life even quicker then I thought it would…..those attempting to cheat the system by un-following as if I wouldn’t know. Such silly people.

My reasons in full are as follows…

1. Email Subscribers show A LOT more trust and faith in a particular blogger then anyone else, and should be rewarded for it accordingly.

Update - Please see this post for final changes to the page.

As I’m sure most of you remember, I announced back in mid-December that I was installing a permanent backlink page for anyone that subscribed via email, and/or follows me on Twitter. (The possibility of two links.)

I also said it would be ready to display by the following Monday…well, it WAS but I ran into the really annoying issue of too much on my Nav. bar.

FIXED! Thanks to the awesomeness that is Jarret Cade, and his amazingly simple tutorial on how to hide navigation pages, I have done it!

Notice the Comment Policy is gone from the top…now hidden and solely linked to from within the comments (where it belongs, duh).

Don’t forget about our mega CASH contest, plus a new one on Easy Cash Contests.

Hello everyone! I promised this post would be out “this week”  before the new year, however I just realized it’s already the 28th! (For craps sake, where does it go?)

For those that have no idea what I’m talking about, the title really isn’t meant to be “bait” of any kind; there really are a BUNCH of people on the look out for this post. These are the readers that have (understandably) asked me questions like, “Why do you have your Twitter link above the fold?”, “Why are you giving incentives to follow you?”, etc and so forth…..

…..WHEN YOU HAVEN’T STARTED TWEETING YET!! Plus the fact that I’m only following one person so far. (Mitch “busted” me on that one, thanks for the comment buddy. )

Latest Update - Please see this post for final changes to the page.

Our $100 Best Blog Review contest is in full effect! Will you be going for the gold?

Update to post below: The page itself is completed (excluding links) but I need help with the Title before publishing. Right now it’s “Meet Our Subscribers”. Ideally it should imply both subscribers and Twitter followers, however “Meet Our Subscribers & Twitter Followers” is far too long.

Any thoughts? Please use the contact form only.

For all those new to this post, read on and comment with your links!

I was going to wait until the New Year to announce this coolness, but why wait to make my people happy!

As you all should know by now, I am all about sharing the luv link style with those that luv me (and those that don’t yet, but will). Y’all know who I mean; those that read, subscribe, comment, and generally share their generous knowledge with us all.

A big thank you for all that participated in the first Knowledge Link Love round! (Those new here, click the link.)

I think this first one, “What Are Your favorite Social Networks and Why?” went quite well, lots of good knowledge on the subject was shared!

For those that didn’t get in on it yet, feel free! LOTS of juicy link love there for ya (minus this list )

Now onto business, lets take a gander at all the cool people that DID take the time to spread some knowledge…..
