We are on a webring for Porsche automobiles, and honestly, when I recently
checked my log file, I maybe get 30 clicks per month from it. Even though
it is on 13 websites and some of them have 3000 hits per day. I think the
results are so bad because on a webring the links are non-graphical, and
there are no criteria for where that webring HTML code has to be placed.
Lots of times I come across webring information on pages that you pass by
accidentally. By the way, what is cross-over method?
