Link to Us
If you have a website in Frome or its surrounding area, send us at this address its internet address and a short description so that we can add it here. We’ll link to you but don’t forget to return the favour. No charge, but we expect a link. So, if there is no link on this site to you at present, tell us. If you have a link to your site from here, make sure you have linked back to us. The internet is a network, so link to us from your website then it works both ways.

As the internet is a network, it depends on links. If you have a link from this site but do not link to us, you are not being fair, are reducing the network volume, and that affects everyone. By not linking traffic is reduced and everyone has less chance of being visited. Linking increases the strands in the web and the greater the chance there is people will click through to your site. Then we all benefit.
You can use this animated GIF (only 5KB) by saving it and then getting its HTML code from the source code of this page, or by following the instructions below.

The Internet has to have reciprocation. Most websites do not get enough traffic because they do not seem to realise that the internet depends upon casual callers. So you have to give them lots of ways of getting to your pages.
If you don’t reciprocate links, how can you expect others to?
Dead and Discourteous Links
Report any dead links or send new ones to this address. It seems nobody reports dead links and few seem to return the courtesy of a link even when they have asked for one here. Dead links have been cleared, and, getting grumpy about discourtesy too, many discourteous ones have gone too. If your link is not dead or discourtesous and we are mistaken please re-send it, and remember that a courtesy link back is… er… courteous. Link to:
