  lovemoren,
  dashboard > appearance > extras > check ” Hide related links on this blog, which means this blog won’t show up on other blogs or get traffic that way”

  The “related links” have lots of discussion in the forums. Personally, I’ve gotten a lot of hits from being in the global tags, and a few from them, but others disagree.

  Thanks, 1tess. I’ll keep the “related links” and see how they will work for me. And after`that, decide whether to remove them or not.

  lovemoren
  Happy blogging!

  I’m writing about a fairly esoteric subject, so my attitude may not be the majority. Lots of times, the related links go back to my own blog. As for the links that are irrelevant, I don’t see in stats that anyone clicks on them. The global hits are gold, though.
