I'm starting to add on to the blogroll over on the right-hand side, but I can't decide how long I want to make it. Do I want to include every site with a personal finance angle? No, that would be too long. You can go to PFblogs for that.

Should I do exchanges with other blogs on personal finance? If I publicly say I'll exchange links, then someone whose blog I dont really want to recommend will contact me to be included. I want to get links, but I don't want to give links that downgrade the worth of the blogroll. (I don't mean YOUR blog, of course, YOUR blog is wonderful!)

I've decided to take it slow, see whose writing I like and who I think has something interesting to say, and add them without any promise of a link back to me. I may inform these blogs in time that I linked to them and, hey, what's your problem, I linked to you and my blog's good so why don't you link back to me? But for now I'm just going to build it for myself, to remind me which blogs I like personally and want to re-visit from time to time. Hopefully that will make it worthwhile for you as a visitor instead of it just being a list of links of varying quality.

Also wondering if I should cap the blogroll at a certain number of links. Twenty? Thirty? Forty? I can't see wanting to go past forty, but even thirty might be too many. I don't know. How do you other PF bloggers make this confounding decision?
