Stuart from EarnersBlog done a brief experiment “How many of the Top Make Money Online Blogs actually show you how to Make Money” using the list Top 100 Make Money Online Blogs at 45n5. Based on his resulting experiment report, most of the top money making blogs provide lesser percentage of money making posts using last 20 posts as sample data. He emailed me asking for some comments.
Personally i find his re-ranking experiment based on last 20 posts of the top 30 money making blogs is interesting. However, i feel that the experiment criteria is not enough to justify the result. Criteria such as timeframe and frequency of posts should be in the criteria. One important unmeasurable criteria is quality of post made by those top money making blogs. Some of them although with lesser post frequency but provide very good informative insights or exclusively interesting experiment experience. Even opinions of the top bloggers regarding recent industry issues sometimes are very enlightening. Quality of post is real hard to measure. Maybe quality of a post can be measure by inbound links to the post?
Well.. this is just a brief experiment done for fun Nice job Stuart!
