“Possible Related Links”

WordPress has added a new feature….  “Possible Related Links”.

It’s a neat idea, but I am finding in my blog stats that I’ve been linked at sites that I really don’t think are compatible with my blog.  So I opted to turn off this option.  Maybe one day it will be more discerning and more like-minded bloggers can get more traffic from each others’ blogs.  For now, it’s not worth it.

If anyone has linked to a blog from here that surprised you ~ and it was not in an entry or in my sidebar, please know I had nothing to do with the “connection.”

For any other wordpress bloggers, if you’d like to turn this off,

  • go to your dashboard
  • then to designs
  • then to extras
  • check the box next to “Hide related links on this blog, which means this blog won’t show up on other’s blogs or get traffic that way” and save.
