Can I have a link back in return?
If you contact us, we are happy to add a temporary link to your site below. When the directory is up and running, things will be slightly
different, but will work more or less like this:
- Crafters will be able to sign our list (which will link to their site)
- Crafters will also be able to complete an interview, which will also link to their site
- Craft Fans will be able to pledge their support, linking their name to their site
- We will happily link to (primarily non-commercial) crafts related sites (e.g. other directories, resources, etc) - but will fit these
into static content as and when we can
- Other commercial (crafts related) sites will be welcome to purchase advertising space
- Craft Groups and Societies can request a link on our new page dedicated to them!
