What is this Webring for
A webring is a way to connect websites that share a common theme or interest together in one large internet ring so that people can easily find websites on a particular topic without having to search for hours on end through a search engine. Just by clicking on a next link or a previous link, a web surfer is taken to another site that is similar in topic. All the sites in this ring have something to do with Irish Martial Arts. By boosting traffic it's great publicity for your website and dojo(s). It's also free to join, of course.
So how can you apply to join

Membership of the 'Irish Fighter' Webring is limited to applicants who are bona fide and reputable Martial Arts groups based in Ireland/Northern Ireland. The 'Irish Fighter' ring is being set up in the spirit of martial co-operation and friendliness and is without any commercial and/or political basis, all accepted members have equal status and shall agree to respect all other members as equals - this is a prerequisite for acceptance to membership.

The name and theme of this webring was inspired by Ireland's biggest selling Martial Arts publication: Approval was obtained from the publisher- Mr.Rob Corwell, PO Box 3827, Dublin 7, Ireland. Although this webring has no commercial connection with this periodical, certain member-sites contain material that has been originally published in the magazine, copyright belongs to the respective MA group unless otherwise stated.
