Hot Air explains how readers can support conservative blogs:
People occasionally e-mail us asking for a PayPal button so that they can donate. That’s kind of them, but there are other ways to help the site that don’t require quite so much largesse. For one thing, you can buy stuff at the HA store and get something for your money in return.
Alternatively, what you can do is sign up at Digg and start putting the “Digg It� button on your favorite conservative blogs to use. There’s one at the end of every post on this site — and at MM’s site, and at LGF and Ace of Spades, to take just three other prominent examples. (There’s none at Instapundit. He’s sort of a one-man Digg anyway, so it’d be redundant.) You’re not limited to sites with the Digg button, either; you can manually enter the URL of any blog post or news article that catches your fancy and add that to the Digg roster.
Obviously this is not limited to conservative blogs: it is also a good way of supporting liberal blogs and center blogs like The Moderate Voice.
Besides that – of course – one can also try to find, for instance, amazon wishlists of bloggers, one can simply send e-mails to bloggers, etc: personally I always find a quick ‘thank you for blogging’ note to be extremely encouraging and inspiring. So, to all three individuals who sent me such a note the last 10 months I say, ‘thank you very much’.
One can – of course – also vote for one’s blog in ‘best blog’ elections, etc.
