Occasionally, after I've entered a post, after "comments" where it says at the bottom "Links to this post" there will be a link to a post on someone else's blog. When I click on it and am taken to the linked post, there doesn't appear to be any particular relevance to my post. (However, it is a post I've looked at because it's someone I'm following.)
I didn't put it there, at least I don't think I did. Maybe I somehow did it inadvertently (maybe by just by looking at the post?). This wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility. But rather than guess, I'd love to know. Any concrete ideas on how it got there?
I'm just curious about this. Thanks!
I think it may be that someone is saving that link for future reference and the listing just lets you know that someone did it. I think. I don't know. If you find out, let me know too, will ya? :)

Sorry, don't have any techie answers but that is a good question. I hope someone answers it here or you share it later!
ReplyDeleteYou asked me about what brand soy milk I put in my coffee and you were correct! I use the Soy Slender Sugar Free Cappucino. I really like the added flavor.
BTW, Buster is so cute!

ReplyDeleteThese are called pingbacks. Its supposed to be when someone links TO you in their post, but sometimes you get a false hit when your blog is linked in their sidebar (like when they have you in their blogroll).
If you check all of the sites that are listed as "links to this post" - I bet you will find they have a link to your blog somewhere on their website.
Thsnks, everyone, especially Dale. Look like we have an expert's answer. :-)
