Default AboutUs.org

I just wanted to mention a site I came across, AboutUs.org. It is a wiki site with a search engine that will create a new wiki page when people search for a particular domain name on their site.

If your site has a top level domain (ie, not somesite.blogspot.com, which is a subdomain) then AboutUs.org can provide a nice link back to your site. Just create an account, do a search for your domain and a page will be created in short order for you to create an "about us" article.

Who knows, your site may already have a page there, just waiting for you to develop. I noticed Website Babble already has a page.

Wait, wait! It's true that the AboutUsBot won't create subdomain pages, yet you can do it very easily yourself. Please see http://www.aboutus.org/Create_Subdomain

Also, might as well point people to the Website Babble page, yes? http://www.aboutus.org/WebSiteBabble.com

Hey, thanks for that, Ted. I guess I didn't look hard enough.

Default Love your garden site; question?

Theresa,

Your water garden site is terrific. What a lot of great information. You have really put in a lot of work to develop all of that content.

But I am puzzled. Do you have any monetization plan? If you do it isn't evident.

Great Success!

James

Thank you, James. That is very kind. The site is still very new and I am following the SBI action guide and not adding monetization until my traffic justifies it. I do plan to keep it pretty clean, though.

No worries. It's far from obvious on the site.
