The British Blogs Top Ten started as a bit of fun, listing the most popular UK blogs by traffic. The person that started said all along it was unscientific and just a bit of fun and he was prepared to accept any publicly available stat counter. Since then there's been a bit of bickering in the UK blogosphere regarding Britishness of certain blogs, disparities between various counting methods, comments about certain blogs having a high percentage of search traffic looking for boobies (a Bad Thing™ apparently) and even the
Guardian had a pop.
Well all that's resolved now as the British Blogs Top Ten is no more - the
latest post says it probably won't be updated again as it did what it set out to do and raised the profiles of some British Blogs.
However
jumping on the bandwagon rising from the ashes like a publicity seeking Phoenix is the
All Inclusive Europundit European Blog Chart. Oops did I say "All Inclusive"? Silly me - slip of the keyboard there. You can
ONLY be included if you use Sitemeter for your stats. Well that's us out before it even starts then.
So in the pursuit of ever more exclusive charts I'm proud to announce the
Newcastle Upon Tyne (With Foreign Correspondents In Chester-le-Street, Cardiff,
Birmingham Royal Leamington Spa, Missouri And Colorado) Based Blogs With
StatCounter Stats Running On Blogger Top Ten Chart. 2 secs while I tot the numbers up....
We are at Number 1. Yay!
