Hi all, there aren't very many incoming links to the forum. If you have a blog or site, please make a blog post about the forum or include it on your site in a link section or wherever and link to it. Even if your blog is small, that will help us rise in search ranks a bit so we can gain users organically. (This is actually a slow period for internet postings in general, but a forum acquires new users or it dies).

My hope is to make it to the top of the search results page some day so people looking for vegan advice online can find sound philosophy free of pseudoscience and alienation/echo-chambers.

No need to spam links (like in comment sections of sites you don't control) that doesn't help. ;)

Thanks!

Some of us might even want to consider blogging, if anybody is so inclined.

What's a good free/easy blog service?

Google's Blogger appears to be the best free service out there. I've used it for school projects, and it's quite simple to use. You can customize the templates a lot. Wordpress is also free, but you'll have to run it on your own server and have a bit more know-how.

That was a spammer. When something doesn't really make sense, you can search for it in Google in quotes.
These spam bots are sophisticated, they build up posts over time to get link posting permissions, but they're all random posts copied from other forums.
