But IMO Technorati is even worse, all you have to do is throw out some link-bait, and a small blog can shoot past others that might have 'better' content.<BR/><BR/>As for comments, that might be a good idea, but if you think I am going to go to all these blogs and count comments, on DIAL-UP...you're crazy ;)<BR/><BR/>Course maybe you are wanting to see Seth get booted out? ;)Mack Collierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02723628321171539590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24784219.post-1150996654358414482006-06-22T12:17:00.000-05:002006-06-22T12:17:00.000-05:00Hey Mack,IMHO you should refine your methodology a...Hey Mack,<BR/><BR/>IMHO you should refine your methodology and find another source to rate these blogs apart from Alexa traffic. It may be a good data point, but it's not the be all and end all. <BR/><BR/>How about comments and interaction? How about incoming links, how about technorati?<BR/><BR/>Just a thought,<BR/><BR/>karlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24784219.post-1150940083846656902006-06-21T20:34:00.000-05:002006-06-21T20:34:00.000-05:00Thanks Mack.

I'd left that same type of comment a couple of times, but only when it would have been possible for me to be ranked.<BR/><BR/>I appreciate the opportunity to compete.<BR/><BR/>Of course, as soon as you get me in your sights, I'm about to go on vacation !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24784219.post-1150840608002914512006-06-20T16:56:00.000-05:002006-06-20T16:56:00.000-05:00You aren't creeping David, you're up about 60,000 ...You aren't creeping David, you're up about 60,000 spots this week, and likely will be again next week.

I'll be slugging it out with content on L+E for some time just to creep up in the rankings—but if I had a brilliant idea like this, it would be so much easier! :)<BR/><BR/>Keep it up.

Technically anything associated with a business transaction could be either put down as an example of product, or price, or place, or promotion, and by extension called marketing. <BR/><BR/>And second, I honestly wasn't aware of your blog. If you had already brought it to my attention, then I apologize. I will consider it for next week, and from now on.Mack Collierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02723628321171539590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24784219.post-1150766206849321772006-06-19T20:16:00.000-05:002006-06-19T20:16:00.000-05:00I'm going to assume that you still don't consider ...I'm going to assume that you still don't consider my blog about marketing, since I outrank the 325 blog again this week.<BR/><BR/>If sales, customer service, advertising and all the other things I blog about aren't 'marketing', then what are they ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24784219.post-1150764885837255312006-06-19T19:54:00.000-05:002006-06-19T19:54:00.000-05:00"If you have no idea what I am talking about, good..."If you have no idea what I am talking about, good for you.
