Webring

This webring is an attempt to inspire artists & developers to create and maintain their own personal websites, and share traffic among each other. The webring's aim is to share rich hand-crafted websites such as diaries, wikis & portfolios.

  1. Add the webring icon to your website HTML.
  2. Add your website information to the index.html file. Keep your link name short, and don't leave a trailing / in the href attribute. Use a sensible alphanumeric value for the id attribute.
  3. Submit a Pull Request with the location of the webring icon on your site. Pull requests with blank descriptions will be rejected.

Alternatively, if you your website has a dark background, use icon.white.svg. If your website is complaining about https, go ahead and host the icon yourself.

Webring criteria

Your website must count at least 10 content pages and include an about page, blog posts are not counted as content pages. You must have your own domain name, we do not accept github.io subdomains.

Single page websites, websites acting only as portals to other social platforms, or websites with violent, racist, sexist or speciesist content will be rejected. If your website requires Javascript/CSS3 to display the majority of its content or to navigate, it will be rejected. Your business homepage is not a good candidate for the webring, and will be rejected.

If it's found that a website is in violation of any of these rules it will be removed from the webring. Websites without activity for over 2 years might also be periodically removed.

Adding your RSS/TWTXT

To add an extra feed to your entry, add them within your <li> tag as follow:

<li data-lang="en" id="xxiivv">
  <a href="https://wiki.xxiivv.com">xxiivv</a>
  <a href="https://wiki.xxiivv.com/links/tw.txt" class="twtxt">twtxt</a>
  <a href="https://wiki.xxiivv.com/links/rss.xml" class="rss">rss</a>
  <img src="https://wiki.xxiivv.com/media/services/button.gif"/>
</li>

twtxt is a decentralized, minimalist microblogging service for hackers. You're welcome to add your twtxt feed alongside your RSS feed. If you're looking a minimal C99 client for twtxt, try this. The button.gif is a 88x31 icon hosted on your server.

Circular Linking

Instead of linking to the directory, you can also link to the next link in the ring by adding parts of your site or domain in the hash of the request url:

<a href="https://webring.xxiivv.com/#xxiivv" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">
  <img src="https://webring.xxiivv.com/icon.black.svg" alt="XXIIVV webring"/>
</a>
