The Wake Effect...

My personal blog -- Garden Pleasures... is a WordPress blog. This allows me to list my blog with the WordPress Topsites List. What's notable about this list is not my membership.. but who else belongs. Sites like:

• *Molly.com
  
• Geek Ramblings
  
• **Electric Venom

These sites have established readership. Even though the "List" is relatively small, just over ***75 members, we all benefit from the large audiences that some of the more popular sites command. When their readers click on their "WordPress Topsites" icon -- it provides the rest of us with some of their reach or audience share. This is the "Wake Effect".

This works... my referrals from this site are notable.

*Molly.com -- is featured on the Blogger.com homepage for her video based blogging workshops for the Blogger platform.

**Electric Venom -- is currently listed on Wonkette with a quote... This site is also listed on my forum under Blogging Articles.

***75 members -- the site administrator recently wiped the database by mistake. At the time of this erasure, there were about 300 members.
