WebRings, Good or Bad?

[alpha2006]

Hi,

I wanted to have your opinions of joining webrings. Did anyone get good traffic from joining a webring?
I would like to join one but don't like having to put their nasty code on my page. Is it worth it?

No, it's not. Webrings were a "fad" back in the late 1990s. They died a rather quick death in 2000 when Yahoo! bought the official WebRing out.

Yeah I almost forgot of those.

I was getting good traffic from them back in the 90's, but for now I don't think that they can work.

Try other free traffic based promotions such us toplists.

I have less and less respect for these. They were the hype once, but just seeing that ugly button or table in my projects makes me think again about it.
