May Halfdone NZ Blog Stats

Included a lot of new blogs this month, and it looks like there’s a lot more out there. We’ve now got 696 blogs in the list here, with over 876 in the list (i.e. including ones that are now defunct and/or gone since they were added).

The “Art” category is in desperate need of splitting, another thing to add to the “to do” list… see the notes below.

To be included, blogs must contain posts on topics of interest to the general public. For a more detailed criteria list, see July.

Alexa = Alexa ranking (30000000 if none)
NZ ranking = Alexa NZ ranking (45000 if none)
Technorati.com authority score (40 if none)

HD Score calculated Alexa*AlexaNZ/Authority/10000. Greens multiplied by 7, Labour by 3 as their blogs are only part of the site traffic, and they fall in the top 20.

All data was downloaded this afternoon/evening.

Any blogs that activate all 3 “if none” criteria are placed in the “can’t calculate” list, as well as most blogs that resolve to a larger website in Alexa. If blogs are defunct and fail to meet any criteria, they are not listed.

Notes:

1. If you have asked and have not been included, or know of a blog that’s not here, or feel colours or icons are incorrect, please feel free to let me know – politely! (“Hey fartface” is considered impolite BTW)

2. Feel free to suggest a new category by sending us a list of blogs that you think qualify and suggestions for icons.

3. Graphs will be updated later, I just realised I forgot…

4. Tumeke seems to have given up. Having some appreciation of what Tim’s trying to do over there,  I can understand perfectly why that might be.
