Webrings, Clubs and Blogrolls I'm part of
I decided to list as many corners of the internet as I could find, where my website is listed for one reason or another.
One of the always ongoing quests of mine consists of keeping all my urls up to date. After almost 5 years of blogging, I’ve changed my domain name a few times, from just my .netlify.app
subdomain, tojoelchrono12.ml
, to joelchrono12.xyz
to the cleaner and shorter joelchrono.xyz
of today.
Nowadays I still keep the last two, with a simple redirect, but I have been exploring around looking for websites linking to me and sending emails for them to update my web address and so.
Because of this process, I’ve encountered websites that have added me to their blogrolls, so I thought I’d share some of those. While we are at it, I have linked to some other sites that I’m a part of, from clubs, webrings, viral challenges, independent search engines and some other mentions I thought were worth bringing up.
I think I want to create a /slashpage for this, but I am not too sure about what to call it, maybe something along the lines of /memberships or /mentions? something like that.
Alas, here are some of the ones I am a part of already.
Blogrolls
Sorry that I won’t add a description for this section, there are just, quite a bit of them so, I got lazy. Thinking about it, is this basically a reverse blogroll? 🤯

Webrings
These are fun, I a series of websites that link to each other, until they form a ring! Say hi to my neighbors.
- Polyring Club: A ring for polymaths, and almost everyone.
- Fediring: Are you in the fediverse? You can be here too.
- Geekring: I think you know the gist of this one already.
- Static Quest: If your website is static html, hand-made or generated, welcome!
IndieWeb Webring: I think I messed up the setup required for this one, will fix later.
Directories
I think there are plenty of these out there, but I haven’t really looked for more!
- Blogroll.org: A human curated blogroll directory.
- Bukmark Club: If you link to other sites in your own, you show up here!
- Blogroll.club: Another human curated blogroll directory!
- Indieseek.xyz: A human edited Indieweb directory.
Clubs
These are kind of like webrings but there’s no ring, just a site listing sites that fit a certain critera, just for fun.
- 512Kb Club: For very light websites.
- 1MB Club: For kinda light websites.
- Dark Theme Club: For websites with dark themes.
Challenges
I’ve participated in a couple of different challenges or online events where I got listed, so that’s fun.

Search engines
I mean, I obviously show up in search engines, but a couple of the independent ones have added me to their index too, and I’m happy to shout them out regardless.
- Clew: The search engine being developed by Amin.
- Kagi’s Small Web: A random website is opened with that link, sometimes mine shows up!
- Marginalia Search: A pretty cool search engine.
- Wiby.me: A search engine like the early internet days.
Some mentions
I am actually mentioned in quite a few posts sometimes. But looking for something that specific would be a bit chaotic, but here are some easy ones to find :D
- I was the first guest to appear in Lazybear’s Over/Under series
- And the second guest to show up in Jakov’s People and Websites
- Marisabel recommended me in the 100th People & Blogs
