Talleyrand, it doesn't get much clearer than this: Make it obvious to the surfer that the link will take them away from your site and somewhere else and you will never get rejected for blind links.

There's no one set standard for blind links. There's been plenty of reviewers/LL owners asking "What do you guys think, is this blind?" There's a degree of blindness in any link; some are REALLY blind and others are blind just to a select few.

Asking LL owner to clearly define what's blind is like asking someone to describe the color red, or DoJ to define obscenity. "I'll know when I see it."

All you need to do is understand the purpose behind good links - which is signify the destination URL and say what your surfer will find once he gets there.

You don't need a handbook to drive a car, and you don't need one to build free sites.

This appears to be another long ass thread about nothing

Unfortunately. Could a Mod please delete everything after page 1?

What I meant by that is there is no getting through to some people. 15 pages from now they will be repeating what they said already
