DesiPundit has been doing great but we need to get the word out more. Many bloggers have linked us on their blogroll and have been mentioning us in their posts. Thanks a ton! I just wanted to list a few that have been sending us droves of visitors:
Patrix – 577
India Uncut – 430
Gawker – 256
Ash – 224
Uma MD – 189
Megha – 181
Sunil – 144
Sepia Mutiny – 122
Saket – 111
KM – 98
These are just approximate referral numbers (via ShortStat) that we have had from the above blogs. Of course, I understand that more popular the blog, the more referrals we might get from a single mention. There are also others who I would like to mention have sent significant traffic our way: Sonia Faleiro, Blogman, Minal, Michael, Global Voices, Vikram, etc. Thanks, folks.
This is all about link-love, right? Well, to some extent. Spread the DesiPundit word wherever you can via blogs, email, or real conversations. If you are chuckling about the presence of contributors in the top referrals list, we would love to be overtaken. Spread the love; we are doing it all the time. Regular programming continues below.

What surprised me about this pundit is the quality of the content it pointed me to. The title says it all, I guess. (The Best of the Indian Blogosphere).
Whoever you guys are, (I know a couple of them, Patrix and the mickey mouse), you are doing a great job.
I check desi pundit on a daily basis. You are my TOI, when it comes to blogs.

P.S. Clueless about how to make words into links in this comment box. Hence the long url.:(

Came here via JK’s varnam blog.
I blog here. Added a link to desipundit on my links page. Although, with the paltry traffic to my site, you guys might be doing me the favor than the other way round.

Done, on the condition that you will fix that weird design quirk that’s closing your rounded corners halfway through the text on the right side.

For the button, you could use this Kalsey’s button maker.
