My wife's blog is now linked from a national organization's web site: National School Reform Faculty.
This was pretty exciting for her, since it might get her blog some attention beyond the people she works with or has explicitly told them about. At least it's a recognition from the people who run the NSRF website that her blog has value and is relevant to the activities NSRF is involved in. I don't really think it will noticeably affect her page hits or "Google rank", but we'll see.
