Search Marketing Blog Awards Announced

Posted by Lee Odden on Jan 7th, 2008 in Blogging, Online Marketing, Search Industry News |

Updated! See Below:

Search Engine Journal began announcing the winners of it’s 3rd Annual Search Engine Marketing Blog Awards today. Voting covered 19 different categories ranging from best conference coverage to best SEO blog. With that many categories, I’d be surprised if Loren posted them all in one day. It’s great link bait with this post as a testament. TopRank Blog was nominated in 4 categories which have yet to be announced.

There’s a first time for everything dear readers and today is the first time we do not have new BIGLIST SEO/SEM blog reviews and feeds to be added to the already bloated RSS reader of your choice. That’s not to say we don’t have several in queue, but they’re too new or there are other reasons it’s not time yet. It might also have to do with the fact I’ve been on the road the past week+ and haven’t had as much time to explore new SEM blogs.

With our U.S. readers recovering from heavy doses of tryptophan from yesterday’s turkey-fest, we wanted to offer up another sparky update on the BIGLIST of search marketing blogs.

In the past we’ve written about ways to get on the BIGLIST either as a result of us finding new blogs in the wild or noticing blogs linking to us.

To change things up a bit, another way blogs that cover SEO, PPC or social media marketing might consider hitting our radar is to either mark Online Marketing Blog as a Technorati favorite and/or following the weekly BIGLIST updates on Twitter.

With Danny Sullivan’s categorization of the Search Engine Land blogroll, it really drove home the need to do the same with our BIGLIST of SEO blogs. The current alphabetization has worked for the first few hundred blogs, but now were near 500 overall. Unfortunately, it’s a very, busy time at TopRank right now so while a categorization of the BIGLIST is in the queue, it will likely be first quarter 2008 before we can get it rearranged.

If there are any brave souls who would like to attempt such a feat (categorizing BIGLIST), I would be happy to give you credit at the top of the list. Just email blog at toprankresults dot com.

Top SEO Blogs on Google Reader

Posted by Lee Odden on Oct 14th, 2007 in Blogging |

As reported on Techcrunch, Scobelizer, Problogger and others, you can now see (albeit maybe not 100% accurately) how many Google Reader RSS subscribers there are for a particular blog. There appears to be some discrepancy between Google Reader subscribers reported by Google Reader and those numbers reported by Feedburner.

We’ve previously published a list of search marketing blogs by Feedburner RSS subscribers, so for fun I thought we’d post that same list of SEO blogs by Google Reader subscribers:

  • John Battelle’s Search Blog - 35,976
  • Search Engine Watch - 5,862
  • SEOmoz - 4,589
  • Search Engine Land - 3,910
