Write a Review for a Linkback

As I sit here waiting for my wireless router to sort itself out – again – I am mulling over a PPP post by Matt that touched on reviews; I am pondering an idea given to me on a visit to Jon Lee’s excellent web development blog; and I am also smarting at the realisation that I have written close on 200 mini reviews and full reviews, and been reviewed only a handful of times myself.

So now you know I am bitter and twisted and don’t have an original thought in my head, this is what I came up with to encourage other bloggers to write reviews about The Pisstakers.

Want a PR5 backlink and a spot on an upcoming widget? Write a good, bad or indifferent review of the Pisstakers in as few or as many words as you like, and send Ed the URL to the post. He, (as in me), will add a summary of the review to the widget, link the summary back to your site, encourage other sites to install the widget in their sidebar, AND give you a mention on the grooviest PR5 homepage on the internet!

Will it work? Technically the widget is proven, as it is a clone of a Funny Quotes of the Day widget which has helped propel The Pisstakers onto the first page of a hot search topic. Will it work with reviews as the main feature? Who knows. It depends if reviews are as popular and useful as people say they are! If I get bombarded with links, I will let you know.
