Blogging Statistics That Make Me Think

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I have to admit, a couple of the statistics used in this article about blogging caught me by surprise. Specifically about what a difference there appears to be in traffic and followers between blogs that have daily posts versus those that don’t and that longer posts attract more links. I had sort of assumed that in our attention deficit world, that length and frequency didn’t matter at all any more, but maybe I’m wrong about that.

Is there anything in that post that stands out for you fellow bloggers?

    Could Tracking and Customized Search Results Influence an Election?

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    I’m beginning to wonder. First, consider this TED talk bout how customization in search results has led to “filter bubbles” where we are only being directed to information we already tend to agree with. Then consider how much influence Google has over search results, and how often they make algorithm changes that no one really…
