Well, my site may not be as popular as our reigning #1 Biblioblogger, but I think I have figured out why I fare so poorly in the Alexa rankings. It isn’t that I am blogging far less frequently or that people aren’t interested in what I have to say (well, that could be it, but I resolutely refused to accept it; I reject your reality and substitute my own). Rather it is that Alexa ranks my home domain http://targuman.org rather than the blog URL. See, if they would measure my blog’s actual hits rather than the home page (which is very nice looking, by the way, you really should stop by) then I am sure my ranking would be right up there. Easily up to #48. I am sure of it. Absolutely.

Is Jim West popularity really the kind of popularity you want? 😉
what are you trying to say chuck?
“You’re obnoxious and disliked, that cannot be denied….”
I love 1776.
Seriously, the way to build readership is to visit other blogs. I suggest going to Jim West’s blog and checking out his readers. Visit their blogs and leave a comment. Try doing a couple a day for a week and you will be surprised at the results!
Oh, I read lots and lots of blogs. Sadly, I do not have much time nowadays to comment or write on my own blog. But I have been around for a long time and at one time was in the top ranks. Today I am just whining. 😉
(Although I do think that it is a problem with Alexa. Google analytics has far more hits for me than their ranking would suggest.)
You might not be as popular, but you’re not as obnoxious and mean-spirited either. Sounds like a win.
