Beta Challenger Search

Beta Challengers,

About 2 weeks ago, I made a custom Google search specific to the Yakezie Beta Class.  You can see the announcement post here.  The search page itself is here.

I've been scraping the Challenger thread for everyone's links, but not everyone posted their link and not everyone has introduced themselves.  I've only got 18 sites in the search, so far.

If you are a member of the Beta Challenge and I don't have you listed on the search page, please post your link here, so I can get you added. Help me promote you!

When I write a post, I hit the Beta Search to find related links to include in the post, to share the link love.  I try to include 2-3 links in every post.  The more sites included in the search, the more relevent in becomes and the more link love gets shared.

If anyone else wants to include the search on their page, here is the code:

<div id="cse" style="width: 100%;">Loading</div>
<script src="http://www.google.com/jsapi" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  google.load('search', '1', {language : 'en'});
  google.setOnLoadCallback(function() {
    var customSearchControl = new google.search.CustomSearchControl('016153038086288918085:t6ibbobikau');
    customSearchControl.setResultSetSize(google.search.Search.FILTERED_CSE_RESULTSET);
    customSearchControl.draw('cse');
  }, true);
</script>

That is wonderful! I was looking for a simpler way to find ways to promote and that will help immensely. We just joined two days ago. Could you add us? Modern Tightwad, http://www.moderntightwad.com. And is there a tool like this that searches all yakezie posts?

 

Thank you.

Andi B.

Make the life you want.

Enjoy good food.

Enjoy good friends.

Oh man! This is excellent! Way to go! 

You should include a backlink to your site for this in the code you are offering. Don't think most would mind. Just a thought.

I though about it, but that would make it about me, not about the Beta Challengers.

I don't think that is making it all about you. You providing a great resource for us. I know I will use it when I am searching for a related article or something to read in a particular niche. And providing a link in their gives us a way to give back to you.

 

But I understand the very understated approach, that is cool. It will come back 25 fold anyway.

All right, I've posted this twice and it's been swallowed by the intertubes twice.

The challenge is closed.  The Beta Class is as full as it's going to get.
I have 20 sites listed on the Beta Search here: http://liverealnow.net/yakezie…..er-search/

 

Who am I missing?

Jason, thanks again for putting this together for us! One thing I noticed is that you still have the old URL for "The Kitchen Sink". She moved to a self-hosted site over the weekend, here is the new link: http://aloysaskitchensink.com/

 Yeah, I joined right after the original challenge ended, well before the Alpha/Beta/Delta chapters were announced.   I think I missed the cutoff by 12 days.   That's what I get for procrastinating.  Smile
