The (Gigantic) Link Fest

Posted by Shane Hudson On October - 7 - 2009

This was meant to be a short post highlighting some recent start ups and make overs… not any more. The original sites that I was going to speak about will still be on the post but there is also going to be many many more. Why? To celebrate ProBlogger.Com, a new forum run by the blogosphere’s biggest blogger, Darren Rowse. On the forums I asked for people’s websites, more than a few people replied!

If you like to do domaining or graphic design then there is a high change you have heard of The Hive Designs. But, did you know they have had a makeover? Completely new website! It looks absolutely amazing. Check their new site out, and if you need any design work then I completely recommend The Hive Designs. I have had designs from them before and they were very professional but more importantly… the price was nothing compared to what the designs were actually worth. So scoot off and go order some designs!

The Entrepreneur Club is a brand new community that is being created by Roland Millward. It is not officially launched yet so join now! Now, the best thing about his website and community is… IT IS FREE!!

Now I need to quickly mention Old Steamers,  a brand new website about steam trains. The owner is Jamie House, Roland Millward’s nephew, so expect great things! By the way, this is his first website, so I am sure he will appreciate any help.

Income Diary is another of the sites I would like to mention. I think I have mentioned Michael Dunlop’s new website before… if not then check it out because it is VERY interesting and inspiring! A newer part of the site is his forum, which I recommend joining. I am an administrator there so expect to see me often.

Now for the reason why this list is so massive! PRO BLOGGER NOW HAS A FORUM! When I first saw the forum (a few days before release) I think it was about $20 a month. It is currently $1.95 and if you join now at that price then that is the only price you will ever have to pay! The best thing about this forum is the community and the amount of motivation everyone provides. UPDATE: I got the $20 a month wrong, it has now been put up to $5.95 which is still a complete bargain price for what is on offer!
