Blog Rating - Increase Your Blogging Confidence

Five days ago, I posted about signing up with a website called BlogTopSites. This site is a directory of Blog Websites which are ranked in category by the amount of unique visitors that they get - they say - “Ranking of pages is done according to the number of unique visits each blog receives every week”.

I have to admit that the reason I originally signed up for this site was because I had seen them on ProBlogger and Trader Mikes Blogs - and I had been signing up with other Blog Networks such as NewsGator, FeedBurner and Pluck as I had read that they are a good way of increasing your Blog traffic.

The best thing about BlogTopSites is that my ranking has been climbing steadily - which is a huge boost to my confidence that I might be Blogging Right. I have also found some other cool blogs that are above and beneath my ranking - such as Work Online from Home - How I did it - written by a fellow Kiwi.

Another great thing is that if you zoom up to the top of the list - you can check out how the experienced Bloggers do it - These are the guys who are getting the big hits - Learn from them and hopefuly move up the list.
