The feed rankings on YGG
January 29, 2007
You’ve probably seen the Feeds page on YGG. The goal of that section was to create a ranking system for entrepreneurial blogs and help some lesser known blogs get a bit of publicity and linkage. We integrated an aggregator so you could see a few posts from the top 10 of 20 blogs. To be honest, the aggregator was quite slow and buggy at times.
So I just made the call to scrap the app and make it a simple list ranking YGG’s Top 20 Entrepreneur Blogs based upon Technorati and Alexa’s rankings.
Now, we need more feeds to track. There are tons of entrepreneurs that visit or contribute to YGG. Many of them have their own entrepreneurial blogs, as you most likely do. So send us a link to your blog or post it in the comments. If you don’t have one, send us a link to a blog you enjoy reading.
We update the list each week and would like to track a few more dozen blogs so the competition heats up a bit more. Bring ‘em on!

Trizoko should be higher up the list, it is brilliantly fresh + regular.

Yay Im number 10 - but I don’t know why I’m beating Trizoko? Whilst I too don’t read it anymore, the amount of knowledge that the guys over there have is unbelievable. It does deserve a better ranking… but woohoo for Blogtrepreneur lol

These rankings are based upon Alexa + Technorati / 2. The difference between the two ranking systems is enormous. If your site gets read by a lot of IE users it’s Alexa ranking will be pretty good. But if no one links to any of your articles your Technorati ranking would suck.
So we had to just average the two to get a reasonable metric.
Your average score is 59,728.5. Trizoko’s is 60,473.5. You just edged them out this week.

Lol - well at the moment I’m really going through a blogging dry phase which is having a real impact on my traffic - maybe they’ll beat me to the #10 spot next week!
