Join Now. This site is powered by Small World Labs, a bootstrap member company.

This was initially launched only for the Bootstrap Student Community. We are now expanding it to all bootstrappers around the world and will become a platform to connect us. The site will undergo a number of changes to reflect the expansion. In the mean time, sign up and get connected to your fellow bootstrappers!


Join-Now Link on your bootstrap website

Here's how you can add a "Join Now" link to your bootsrap website.

Just cut and paste the code below. It will cause a "Join Now" button to appeaer that links to the login page.

<a href="http://community.bootstrapstudent.com/unlog.php?page_act=newuser&nu_code=0"><img src="http://community.bootstrapnetwork.com/images/join-now-button.gif" alt="Join Bootstrap Professional Network Now" style="border:none"></a>

If for some reason people don't like the image, or they want it to pull from their own server, they can modify the image and just modify the img src to point to the new location of that image. The a href and alt text should remain the same.
