Webring Definition
A webring is a group of web sites related to the same topic. Similar sites are grouped together in rings, with each site linked to another by a navigation bar.
Rings form a concentration of sites, allowing visitors to navigate through them easily. Visitors can go on a circular "tour" within the web sites.
When the webring is displayed on a web page, "Forward", "Backward" and "Random" links are usually displayed for navigation between each of the sites in the webring. Each WebRing is maintained by an Owner - named the RingMaster.
A webring is normally hosted by a ring server. The most popular ring server is WebRing. The webring host or server keeps track of the web sites in the ring, so that a user can click on one of the links in the webring box, and be taken to the next web site in the web ring.
The reasoning behind a webring is that people who are interested in the topic of one web site might also be interested in another web site on the same topic.
A webring is also a VERY effective way to accumulate links to your site. This is important for moving up in the search engines. Even if a webring sent you no traffic from people "surfing" the webring- you'd still want to be a member! The more sites that link to your site the higher the search engines will rank you.
WEB Hubs
A WEB Hub is a web page where ALL the links and descriptions of the links in a specific webring are stored in one place.
The hub pages of webrings serve as a giant link exchange! Try it and you'll see how it works! You can use a webring to link all your own sites and have a hub page with nothing but your sites on it!
You can join other web rings and have your web site listed on their hub pages. Here is an example of a webring hub page.
Start your own Web Ring and become a Ring Master
Web Ring is the largest server for webrings on the Internet. Web Ring requires that you join 3 webrings before you can become a Ring Master
I've listed 3 webrings below that you can join if your site has similar content. Remember, you only need to join 3, IF you want to be a RingMaster.
Once you join one of these web rings, your site will be automatically included on the webring hub page and be put in rotation for traffic!
I have made the actual space that the box takes on your site as small as possible.
Webrings are fun! Try to use the key words in your title and description. Don't forget to set up your profile page. Put lots of links on your profile page! Every single one counts!
To join one (or all) of the webrings below:
- Go down to one of the Web Rings below, and click where it says Join WebRing.
- Fill out the information at the Web Ring server.
-
Web Ring will give you the code to place on your web site, so copy it then go to your website and paste it onto the page.
-
When the Web Hub Owner approves your site in the ring, you'll see a box like the ones below. Each box is different. The Web Hub Owner has selected options to make the web ring look as he or she wants.
