WebRing is great for fast search engine access.
Instead of having to wait weeks, if not months, for your new website to be picked up by the major search engines join WebRing. In a very short time your site can be available online. The first thing I do when I start a new site is to add it to WebRing. I recomend it to everyone.

Over 10 Years a WebRing member - Genealogy is the Key
I started my 1st genealogy site for the purpose of recording my late fathers original research of our family. I soon realized I needed to find ways of getting my site and its data known to the World. Having discovered bulletin boards and other sites all of which seemed poorly put together, I then found WebRing with a small nucleus of genealogy sites. I signed up and have not looked back. I have received contact from many unknown cousins over the years, some who found my site via webrings. I now run many rings on a range of topics that I either have sites for or have an interest in.&

Something New to try!
I had originally joined WebRing.org back in '96 when I had a site called "Info Atlanta." I was trying to find a way to make the site more interesting and a good way to link to other related sites. You know, back then everyone had the same ol' links page! A webring seemed like a good fit.
It was only after I joined that I discovered the index and ranking system for rings. I was impressed by how much control I had over the design of the navigation code (they weren't called navbars back then).
The server that hosted "Info Atlanta" shut down and I decided not to pu

I could tell you, but then I would have to kill you
I first joined WebRing in 1996 when there was only one WebRing - because I selfishly saw that this thing was a simple yet fantastic tool to get people to see my website. But then I realised that I can follow Rings and be taken to a whole world of interesting, stunning, clever, weird and often very cool websites, which otherwise would have been lost in the crowd. Billions of websites to see, and I have found the best ones right here Neil - noooool

What drew me to WebRing was.
The huge amount of member rings and that I wanted to draw readers to my site and I didn't know much about promoting my website to anyone, so when I heard about WebRing, I was intrigued and got an account in 1998 and started to submit my site to all the ring promotion sites out there along with my other websites that I owned were also promoted here on WebRings and I created other Rings here to promote websites at and various others. I'm still here even though the site has changed hands once and then returned to the original owners, as people fled not wanting to remain I still remaine

as I stumbled into the ring
..like a visitor who (where's the whisky bar) mixed up the doors... Anyway, this was at the very beginning of my challenging journey in the w.w.w. In 2004 I still scorned the computer world, in 2005 others buildt my first music- and business pages and I started to taste blood. This was when I applied - still half blind and afraid of code - at WebRing. I've learnt a lot, and the community still helps me to crank the rankings for our websites and blogs. Now that we all are developed, coworking is a LoT of FUN

WebRing promotes sharing.
When I joined WebRing, I had recently lost my younger brother to a tragic accident. I wanted to share my grief with others who lost their brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers. I knew WebRing possibly had rings for grief support and I searched for it here and found several Rings to join. Through WebRing's help, my support system grew with each Ring I joined. I was no longer alone in my grief. There were others who felt the same way I did. Every day, when I checked my guestbook, there is usually an entry from someone who came from WebRing to show their support or give their sorrows over

The imagination is the key to navigating life
I am not new to webring, but it is a wonderful place to gather my creative outlets before my peers. I am a mentally challenged individual that relies on my creativity to express myself to the world. Since the age of twelve I have been dreaming of doing something with my imagination. I find that my voice as an artist is best expressed in a multimedia presention. The internet allows me to gather the good and the bad in a way that increases the importance of my sense of self.
There are very few places on the internet that allow me to liberate my inner life bef
