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.

Could have been better if it had it’s own domain not just on a different folder and sub link.

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.

@ 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.

kzap · 21 years ago

chong sabihin mo naman kung saan mo nakuha yung script na yan, parang snsbi mo na ikaw gmwa eh, pati yung post sa pinoyblog.com parang ganun eh

Kates · 21 years ago

Abe Olandres Editor-in-chief · 21 years ago

@ 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. ;)
