I so envy the m|ph blog

The m|ph blog is one of the only two blogs that are featured in the front page of Inq7.net (the other one is PCIJ). That alone could have made the m|ph blog one of the most widely read blog in the country right now.

I checked their post pageviews and it averages about 3,000 per post and I assume it’s much much higher for the pageviews on the homepage. There’s a page view counter there (counted 212,113 views) but I’m not sure if it’s for the day or for the month. I’d do pretty much anything to get some of that action and what it could do to my AdSense account. I just don’t get why the blog isn’t updated regularly with all that corporate backing and manpower. Last entry was 5 days ago. Comments are scarce as well.

It’s such a waste of prime real estate, IMO.

Spam!

I am planning to make a list of those websites advertised through spam, and make use of a Firefox plugin to block those sites! Karma revenge! >:)

@ Rickey

I do get somewhere around 3k pageviews from 1.2k uniques. What I envy the most is that they have a link in the front page of Inq7 with millions of visitors and a PR 7. That’s direct referral, not from organic SE. This blog thrives on SERPs. :D

You don’t need to envy anyone. I checked out the m|ph blog and it didn’t really do much for me: all salestalk and brochureware. Inq’s front page? Location is just location.

Passion is what’ll bring in the comments, the numbers, and the bacon. You got a good enough thing going with your own blogs, your own audience, your own voice.

Just keep plugging away. You’re doing great.
