A ring of blogs, journals, and strange corners of the internet.
No algorithms. No followers. Just friends and their weird little pages.

For tender wits only.

How to Join
  1. Choose a slug for your site, like octoberhouse or tenderghost.
  2. Paste the badge snippet anywhere on your site that people will see it, preferably with your other links and webrings
  3. Replace YOUR-SLUG with your actual slug, then publish the page to your live site.
  4. Once it's live, click the badge's prev or next link once from your own site.
  5. That click puts you in the waiting room. Give me a day or two to approve you.

No email or custom snippet needed. Just publish, click through, and wait a beat.
The ring is for indie blogs, journals, creative sites, and strange corners of the web. No racist/N@zi, misogynist, or otherwise hateful shit allowed. That's it!

Your Embed Snippet
This is it. The badge builds its own prev and next links automatically from your slug.

Your slug is your identity in the ring. If you change it later, update the snippet too.

What Happens Next
  1. Your click tells the ring where your page lives.
  2. The ring checks that the badge is really on your site.
  3. Your site goes into a pending queue.
  4. If approved, you join the live rotation and your badge starts sending people around the ring.
