I've always had a soft spot for links pages thanks to my early webcomic days, where every comic site had a section dedicated to what the artist was reading, but the art of the ~*~Links Page~*~ is dying bc of social media. Thinking a lot about this article: thoughts.melonking.net/thoughts/eve... 🔗
Every site needs a Links Page / Why linking matters Published: December 6, 2022 Modified: June 27, 2023 There’s a simple test you can do to tell if a website is a positive citizen of the web, or a negative one. Go to the website and look for their links; do they have any? Does the website link to other websites made by other people? Or do they just link to their own social media? How many outbound links do they have? In short; is the website a dead end? If it is; its dead weight for the web! Is your website a dead end? Don’t worry, Im not here to point fingers; the modern web often encourages us to isolate ourselves. We are made to feel that in order to be professional we must create well defined boxes that separate and quantify our work. A typical modern website is an island that contains you and only you, and it can only be found via your social media accounts or a Google search (assuming you’re famous enough and/or pay enough to Google's AdWords); this is by design! You may not know it, but you’ve been forced into this dead end against your will, and its not in your favour. When a website isolates itself from others it diminishes its own power to participate in the web. Just look at that word “web”, its about connections; its about crossed wires and unexpected transitions. Links are the open highways of the modern world, they are the moment when borders fall and ideas flow. Links are the lifeblood of the web, and linking to other sites is a declaration of independence. Its a declaration that says, “I am the infrastructure of the web, I am not content, nor am I a product, I am a human and a participant in this great work of humanity we call the Internet”.
