Hashtags for the Open Internet

Octothorpes are hashtags and backlinks that can be used anywhere on the web, linking urls and resources across a network of domains.

Octothorpe servers expand on web rings and blog rolls, acting as feeds and search engines that small communities can easily own and manage.

Every Octothorpes Ring is a collection of verified domains, each opting in to being indexed and contributing it’s links to the overall network.

To verify a domain in this Ring, you will be provided with a unique code to add to your DNS records after registration. This lets us ensure that whoever requested registration is able to control their domain.

Once your domain has been registered and you’ve taken steps to verify that you control the domain, your website will be approved.

You will receive an email if you provided an email address. Otherwise, check to see if your domain is present on the Rings list of sites.
