I have just been informed through a reliable source that one of the premier Conservative sites on the web jewishworldreview.com is in significant danger of folding due to low traffic and clickthroughs.
I manage a website http://www.malzbergtalk.com where we linked a movie they have on their site and through my contacts with them I became aware of the situation.
It features such major columnists such as
Ann Coulter, Thomas Sowell, David Horowitz, Linda Chavez, Larry Elder, Tony Snow, David Limbaugh, Mort Kondracke, Ch. Krauthammer, Michael Medved, Nat Hentoff, Roger Simon, Cal Thomas, Walter Williams, Ben Wattenberg, George Will
and many, many others. I feel that websites that feature some of the major Conservative thinkers ought to survive so they can remain a resource of thought for Conservatives.
Many articles gleamed from the site have been posted here on freerepublic quite often. It's time to return the favor via one of our traffic freeps. I urge you to visit the site and click through to some of their sponsors to keep the site alive so we can still have access to some of our major columnists. Please inform others who are not Freepers as well via your e-mail lists. I can think of few other sites where one can find such a collection of conservative thinkers in just one place.
While you are at it, check out this important PBS film Jihad in America it was a PBS Frontline piece done 10 years ago and even more valid a piece of reporting today.
Let's see if we can up the traffic and keep the site alive.

It is imperative that we do not lose a valuable Conservative resource. We need more places where Ann Coulter can be read, NOT less.

JWR is a great site to find conservative (and even token liberal) opinion. Please visit them.
To: Cacique
They are great conservative writers but I'm not jewish so why should I go to the site? I am not in their targeted audience. If they want to be a jewish site they will have to be liberal, If they want to be conservative then stop targeting a jewish only audience. Simple Marketing 101.

P.S. I'm not Jewish either, so what? And I may add neither are most of the syndicated columnists that they feature and write some columns for them you won't find elsewhere. I don't go there to read stuff about Judaism, I leave that to their Jewish audience. I do go there however, to read Sowell, Williams and Coulter which are featured in few enough sites as it is.

They have also asked that we only link articles, not publish them, in order to increase the amount of hits they're receiving.

I'm not Jewish either, but I visit the site everyday. It's great to find all the columnists I regularly read in one place.

I'm not Jewish, either. But I do read some of the Torah sections. Some very good life lessons appear on JWR. It will be a shame if it goes down.

Think of it as cross-training.

Direct links to the JWR should be posted instead of copying their articles if the JWR is to survive.

I suspect they mean some of the banner ads they feature on their site. There are usually some cgi subroutines that count the clickthroughs.

I do go on the JWR site sometimes, especially when an article is posted on FR. Today, I went on it and clicked through one of the banners, something I seldom do. Anything to support a good resource.

Thanks for the reminder. I tend to forget the great resource they are, and I will go click on some ads if it will help.

I just clicked through every one I could find. I rarely click those banners (anywhere), but do so occasionally on JWR. I will make it a point to click them often there now.
Another way to help is to use the posted link in JWR book reviews and mentions. That way Amazon will credit them with the sale.
