If you’re like me then you love free blog sites. BayWords is a new site by the makers of The Pirate Bay, notorious for their Torrent site and debacle with the RIAA and other oppressive regimes.
Blog sites are great because they make link building a breeze. Now I’d never advocate setting up a load of sites just for the purpose of link building, however creating and maintaining a few blogs that are on-topic and used as a hub for aggregated news can make quite a powerful platform.
Anyway, the big thing about BayWords is their focus on freedom of speech… which may not mean a big thing to you right now, but with the web becoming ever more policed its nice to have a service provider that fights to retain the originality of your content. They say…
We’re proud to present a new service – baywords.com. Because of the need of freedom of speech and secure hosting facility of the words being said we could not agree to how people behave towards bloggers.
Many blogs are being shut down for uncomfortable thoughts and ideas. We will not do that. Our goal is to protect freedom of speech and your thoughts. As long as you don’t break any Swedish laws in your blog, we will defend it.
We will update the blogging system all the time to add new features and themes. If you need to contact us, you can do so here.
We decided that although the system is quite minimalistic right now, the most important thing was to get it up and running. So stay tuned for updates and please blog your heart out. Your ideas and your thoughts are the most important ones.
(Upcoming stuff: We will add support for your own domain hopefully. Captcha system will be installed. Stats will be better. Ads will be added, sorry about that but we’ll keep them as usual to a minimum.)
All in all… its worth having another platform to use. It just needs testing to see how effective it will be in an SEO application.
