WELCOME TO OUR 1ST EDITION OF THE JUNKYARD BLOGS & BUSINESS DIRECTORY COURTESY MENTIONS This publication's content was first published in a blog post on our website on Saturday, July 21st, 2018.

The content is provided to you in this pdf for your keeping and convenience to carry and read on your smartphone, tablet, or computer.

The original blog post on our site will be deleted within a few months since we receive no accomodation to link to these urls in our Courtesy Mentions or anywhere on our website.

Our new Courtesy Mentions program highlights websites we think our viewers may find useful to discover.

In our Courtesy Mentions Program, we feature websites and blogs related to various topics such as Art, Blogging, Camping, DIY, Hiking, Home Decorating, Nature, Outdoors, Photography, Technology, Traveling, Science, and anything else that may strike our interest.

Some websites may be well known brands, however, whether big or small, we love to feature any reputable blog or business site in America we can, as we know that there's COURTESY MENTIONS – EDITION 1 – WWW.JYBDIR.COM

always the chance someone doesn't know about it.

The sites we're listing in our Courtesy Mentions are not listed in our directory (although we would welcome them to join our directory and enjoy the full benefits of our service), but rather websites we discover in social media. We were noticing that through our social media journey we were seeing tons of website advertisements on Facebook and other social media (like everyone on the internet does), and then we started looking at the profiles and collecting website addresses. We've been collecting website addresses since Tuesday, July 3rd, 2018 in a composition book that we refer to as our "Random Websites List" and as of this edition we've collected 380+ awesome websites and blogs that we're going to be sharing in our Courtesy Mention's blog posts and publications. We really had no specific purpose for collecting them when we started, but we're glad we started doing it. It turns out that doing so has helped us to discover some really amazing services and we'd like to share them with you.

So each week (or as often as we can) we'll randomly select 20 or more websites from our collection to feature.

Because we choose these links randomly each week, you may see some links that have previously been featured. Here is the list of courtesy mentions for this edition. As of this edition, we do not yet have a specified schedule of publication for this program since this is a new feature on our website, and a new publication series we're starting. Over the next few months we'll be working on getting a regular schedule for this publication. We hope you find something in COURTESY MENTIONS – EDITION 1 – WWW.JYBDIR.COM
