The Top100Bloggers.com staff has seen the largest turn out yet. We have had over 200 new signs ups and now have the community pushing over 400 members. With our new structure and system setup, we have seen over unique visitors shoot up to over 150,000 unique visitors last month alone. We already have over 75,000 unique hits this month and it’s only in the first week of the month. Our traffic has simply sky rocketed, resulting in the traffic to everyone’s blogs raising and the reader count increasing as well.

This community was founded on the basic principal that we wanted to create a place for bloggers to come and be ranked by their visitors. We wanted to create a unity between all bloggers.

Some trials and tribulations to remember: http://www.pubsub.com/linkranks.php – Failed in the first few weeks (or was it months) with large multi user blogs corrupting the results. Almost useless to determine an “A List” of 500 bloggers because sites like blogger.com dominate the linking war. http://technorati.com/pop/blogs/ – A list of “most linked in people” that is most widely used to determine popularity.
