You’ve inspired me to do a thankful post on my blog too.

I can see the thankful frenzy getting into blogging like meme thing once used to be. Thanks for starting this.

Darren,

A bit tricky as DWB is in a different niche than ProBlogger, but as I was reviewing my other fav blog, Successful Blog, it worked rather well.

Here’s the link – http://www.designers-who-blog.com/index.php/archive/successful-blog/

“The second blog-of-my-life is ProBlogger, by Darren Rowse. Darren sends us off with homework (thanks!) which resulted in my Team Blogging Goals.”

Hi Darren!

Hi Original Idea – I’m sure it’s been done before, there’s nothing particularly new about either saying thanks or linking I guess. I wouldn’t claim it as original but I also can’t think of anyone who inspired me to do it.

Darren did you come up with the idea of thankful linking yourself? I follow a blog that’s been doing this for months. I knew she would start something, it’s nice.

Well, I haven’t sent any traffic your way (yet) and you haven’t sent me any (not expected, really) but I do want to thank you for the useful content. I’ve learned quite a lot from this blog for the last few weeks. I have what could be called a pretty niche-y blog and so it’s been interesting, to say the least, at trying to get it optimized. Your advice has been golden.

I tried this last month and thought it would be a good idea to do a bit of a fuller stats post. Here it is:

I am going to repeat it every month because everybody loves reading about themselves and the others they participate with and it helps me to keep track of what’s going on a bit.

Thanks a lot Problogger for helping to driving traffic to my blog. A few hits, but I get more hits from you than most blog directories!
