After having run across that post on Karen's site I dropped in on Marcus and started checking out his posts on 101 ways to become a better blogger.
Hell, I want to be a better blogger. I would also like to learn how to
write a coherent entertaining sentence but that is probably beyond the
means of this project. Anyway, I am going to participate in this
project along with him and I will attempt to do it on all three of my
blogs at the same time. There are several things I need to get in order
on them anyway, so this will probably take care of them...
The first step is to Go to Popuri
and check your page rank, alexa rank, and technorati rank. make a note
of these so you'll have something compare them to next summer.
So here are the results for my three sites:
Shadowscope
Google PageRank: 5
Alexa Rank: 62,365
Compete Rank: 363,408
Quantcast Rank: 71,180
Google BackLinks: 560
Yahoo BackLinks: 16,495
Live Search BackLinks: 1
Technorati Links: 3,216
del.icio.us Bookmarks: 1
Bloglines subscribers: 9
TheAppDotNet
Google PageRank: 4
Alexa Rank: 214,827
Compete Rank: 0
Quantcast Rank: 0
Google BackLinks: 71
Yahoo BackLinks: 1,875
Live Search BackLinks: 1
Technorati Links: 237
del.icio.us Bookmarks: 1
Bloglines subscribers: 0
Miles Business Blog
Google PageRank: 3
Alexa Rank: 309,724
Compete Rank: 0
Quantcast Rank: 0
Google BackLinks: 36
Yahoo BackLinks: 288
Live Search BackLinks: 0
Technorati Links: 249
del.icio.us Bookmarks: 0
Bloglines subscribers: 0
The
first step actually assumes that you run Wordpress and that you know
how to set it up to ping some sites when you update your blog. I don't
run Wordpress but I do know how to have it ping and have it set to do
so.
