Half March Half Done Stats

Here’s your “filler” blog rankings for March. Yes, I’m a little late – I’ve let those pesky human relationships and adult responsibilities get in the way of what’s really important.

Alexa = Alexa ranking

NZ ranking = Alexa NZ ranking

Technorati.com authority score (1 if none)

HD Score calculated Alexa*AlexaNZ/Authority/10000. Greens blog multiplied by 80.

All data was downloaded this evening.

Notes:

1. The criteria here are looser than Tumeke! Generally we are more relaxed, and include all blogs that post items interesting to the general public. This is pretty much most things outside of strictly “this is what I did today” style blogs. We also include blogs that are defunct, as many still are read for months after closing.

2. If you have asked and have not been included, or know of a blog that’s not here please feel free to let me know – politely! I keep thinking I have lost things but not finding them… so if I’ve missed you let me know. Ditto for classifications.

3. There are no prizes for asking why frog blog is “out of place”.  See previous rankings if you want to know.

Note: Original Blog list, and original concept from Tumeke, who have a more considered ranking of the NZ blogosphere here. No Hamsters were harmed in the compiling of these statistics, just egos!
