choose a slug for your site (a unique identifier)
-
add the webring links to your site:
<a href="https://404salad.github.io/webring/YOUR_SLUG/previous"> <- </a>
<a href="https://404salad.github.io/webring">webring</a>
<a href="https://404salad.github.io/webring/YOUR_SLUG/next"> -> </a>
-
submit a pull request adding yourself to websites.json

entries should have the name of your site, your slug, a short description, your site link, your rss feed (if applicable), and a contact link (such as an email or social media)
here's an example entry:
{
"name": "Example Website",
"slug": "example",
"about": "example site",
"url": "https://example.com/",
"rss": "https://example.com/index.xml",
"owner": "person@example.com"

A webring is a collection of websites linked together in a loop. Each website contains links to the previous and next websites in the ring. If you navigate far enough, eventually you end up back where you started!
Webrings were popular in the early days of the internet as a way for website owners to promote each other's content and encourage community engagement.
This is a tool for anyone who has some kind of personal website or blog and wishes to connect with others. You can use it to grow your own online community from scratch!
That's it!
Happy linking 🌐
