Chances are you have a blogroll. What does it take for you to add someone to your blogroll? What is your criteria?

Try giving a one sentence answer.

I will be selecting answers for a post in my blog...and including a link to your blog.

(that would be "qualify")

Hi, interesting question.

I look for original content that my own readers would be interested in.

I'd be interesting in reading your post when it's up.

Cheers, Jane

Looks good and clean and not cluttered. Short-ish posts that are funny/informative/look good. A relaxed and inspirational outlook.

  LOL...
  
  This sound like a blog in your blogroll has either great content and integrity or it`s one of your blogs...
  
  funny :-)
  
  By the way: Besides the quality of content and desing, I also consider the topic of a website. I would not link from a techblog to a mommy-blog unless I`m friends with the author. Linking to blogs with a related topic has a greater affect to Google`s Page Rank.
  
  related topic does not necessarily mean the same topic, since many avoid to link to competitors (which can bring benefit for you too)

I usually put links to websites I have already linked to in articles that have relavent content to what my readers would be interested in. Most of those sites already link to me anyway so it's mostly recipricol.

I tend to link with blogs that are the same as mine, in as much as they are personal tales. Sometimes, however, if one really catches me, i'll add it anyway just to give credit where it's due.
