Phooey on Popuri
March 30th 2007 10:20
I tried out the site that was mentioned under the Writer’s Forum: Check the popularity of your blog, tonight. It’s called Popuri.usWeird results. I’ve already made this comment on the Writer’s Forum page itself, but I want to elaborate a bit.
I’ve got two blogs on Orble, Webitz.net, and Mike Crowl’s Roving Report. The latter is the lesser of the two, partly because it doesn’t have a domain name (according to the whiz-kids at Orble, that makes a difference). Yet RR got an Alexa Report, while Webitz got none. (This little piggy had roast beef, this little piggy had none.)
RR got 62 Yahoo backlinks, Webitz got none. Is this crazy or not?
Technorati lists Webitz with having plenty of links while RR has none – yet this doesn’t show up in the Popuri report.
But leaving aside these random results – and they are very random to me – I have to make mention of the results that came off the Google Backlinks for Webitz, where it suddenly came into its own. But did it want to be there?
Here are some of the first few: Britney Spears see-through shirt,
Write Santa a Letter, Man Kept 114 dead cats and 1 dead dog in freezers. Then there’s On Mandatory HPV vaccinations, How the MSM could have saved itself (I don’t even know what the MSM is), and Coffin Conversations.
It seems most of these link to Orble sites. I guess this is a good thing, that I’m appearing so randomly with Britney, Santa, and a man who isn’t good at getting rid of pets. Such company I should keep already!
