I had never tried this before, so I went to Altavista and followed the
instructions.
There are 120 other web sites that link to our SignWritingSite listed there!
This is a wonderful feature in Altavista, because it gives a chance to
learn about other web sites that have chosen to place a link. This means
that those web sites are most likely related to deafness or sign language
or literature...so I visited some of the sites listed there. I had never
heard of many of them. And they are wonderful sites, filled with
information. I appreciate their links. Some of them are in a Scandinavian
language, some in German, and one in Dutch. Very exciting.
So if any of you want to find who has linked to your own web sites - try
this - it is fun!
