The Pinoy Top Blogs Project

Taking a hint from BlogTopSites, I reckon it would be wise to have a localized version of a blog ranking system for Pinoy blogs.

I spared no time to implement a beta site for this, and called the project Pinoy Top Blogs. Basically, what it does is monitor the traffic of an individual blog thru its unique visitors and hits. That way, one can identify how many unique readers and unique visits a blog gets on an average month which is used as a basis for ranking. The stats are then re-freshed at the end of the month to give way to potentially popular new blog members.

To add your blog to the tracking system, you will need to register as a member, enter as many as 10 blogs sites, generate the button codes to copy and paste into all pages of your blog. Only blog pages which the button appears will be tracked. Current rankings are also displayed on the tracking button.

Using the same system, I am hoping to add as many features and functionalities to the project in order to generate a statistically verifiable profile of the Filipino Blogging Community. It is still on beta though.

Check it out and add your blogs now.

    @ kaye

    Thanks! ;)

    @ mr nice ash

    I think you need to paste the generated code for your blog so it can do the tracking. The code can be generated inside your UserCP in BlogTopSites. ;)

    @ retz & mr nice ash

    malay natin, baka me mag donate ng prizes. :p

    @ kates

    Di po talaga ako kasali. :D Bawal eh. hehehe

    @ andre

    I’m sure if you read my entry above carefully, you would have understood that the idea was lifted from BlogTopSites.com. I believe, I gramatically stated (in PinoyBlog) that the “project” is in beta, not the script. You can also check the credits at the footer of the PinoyTopBlogs pages which points to the script source. I’m not sure how you end up with that idea. Thanks for taking the time to post though.

    Pinoy Top Blogs and 302 Redirects

    Some search engine related conerns regarding Pinoy Top Blog’s redirect method

    Pinoy Top Blog is a very nice project in that it adds an acceptable measure of objectivity as far as blog rankings go. Nothing could be sweeter than landing in the top …

  24. Marc says:

    hi, posted something about 302 redirects and Pinoy Top Blogs here.

  25. yuga says:

    Hi Marc,

    Many thanks for pointing this out. Rest assured that this project is no way intended to exploit in any manner or form this Google bug.

    Google is currently tackling this redirect issue as stated here.

    clsc.net dissects the issue further and points out that:

    This can not and should not be fixed by webmasters. It is an error that is generated by the search engines, it is only found within the search engines, and hence it must be fixed by the search engines.
