A little Blog(ged) validation
Reading the feeds this morning I came across Steve Hodsons post about Blogged, which is a blog directory where the editors actually review and score the blogs before allowing them into the directory.
Editor reviews are based on the following criteria: Frequency of Updates, Relevance of Content, Site Design, and Writing Style. Blogs are compared to other blogs within the same category. Blogs that have not been reviewed by an editor will receive a "first impression score" by our system, which evaluates similar criteria. Ratings are not meant to endorse, promote or advertise a blog.
Curious to see if this blog was in their directory I did a quick search and there it was.
Needless to say, it was a great boost to my (already enormous) ego to see that they have awarded O’Flaherty a massive 9.1 out of 10. (Contrary to popular rumors, I swear I did not pay the editors off!)
Not a bad way to start the morning!
Is your blog on Blogged?
9.1? Apparently I am on there with a measely 7.1. I can only guess you are blowing the right people!
Sorry Sara, but I’m not into that sort of thing.
Congratulations! I’m on there with n/a. Yeah, I’m not even applicable. Nice.
Requested a review (goal: just be higher than Suburban Oblivion
) and then noticed that part of it is based on “frequency of posts.” Well, um, damn. Hiatus, much? Damn.
Great find. Much fun to explore.
@Megan . Your hiatus may have hurt your rank but I’m sure you’ll build it back up again
Congratulations. I am surprised that you did not influence them!
Hum…I like this site review thing. I felt my rating was low…but hey, I was reviewed by a non-business golfer but the concept is interesting…as long as reviewers are honest..
I sent my blog in tonight. If Paul can pull down a 9.1, I’ve got a good feeling about what I’ll score.
6.1??? 6.1??? I call shenanigans! I have a ninja, a samurai, a half-cyborg cat, and Black Jesus on my blog. That’s worth an 8 alone.
6.8… ugh, I can’t read today…
@renalfailure Do you have any leprechauns? That may be the defining factor
