Million blog list
by SaveTimeThis is an interesting idea – and it will be interesting to see how long this ends up taking, too. This site is trying to get 1 million blogs added to their blog by the other blog owners.
In their words, ” It is said that there are over 70,000,000 blogs in existence. This is an experiment to see how long it will take to get 1,000,000 blogs to list themselves on our site. Will it work? We think so. The experiment is to see how long will it take. What do you think? take our poll. We started April 10th, 2008. “
The Save Time Online blog is listed at number 895 so they still have a few more blogs to go, lol!
Why would you add your blog?
- it’s fun!
- it is an extra link to your blog which helps search engine rankings and gives you more exposure
- it is free and easy to do
Mentioning the list on your blog is optional – however, if you do mention them, you can bold your site in the list and may get selected as their random ‘blog of the week’ for additional exposure.
Yes, mentioning them gives them more traffic, but it may make for an interesting post on your blog. And if their site gets popular, linking to them can’t hurt your page rankings! And then. blogging is about community and joiing in, so being part of this fits tthe blog world anyway.
What do you think about the list? Will you add your blog to it? And will you link to them from your blog?
Well their list is now at 1684 so it has grown since we added Save Time Online.
Rounding it down to 1500 blogs in about 5 weeks, we calculate it oculd take a total of 3,333.33 weeks (or 769 months) to reach their target!
Their poll shows 15% thinking it will take more than one year – and 10% saying it won’t work at all! An enthusiastic 16% sais they’d get there in less than a month but obviously that didn’t happen!
Have you joined the list? Have you noticed any traffic via the list?
We’ve had 2 people visit us by clicking on the list page – which is something but not exactly earth shattering!
