Hey Pat,
I was wondering if this was a quarterly ranking?
Or are there plans to do a followup?

Alexa seems to be fairly wonky lately.

Many of you have suggested including actual revenue in the rankings. I agree that’d be great, however the revenue information is not publicly found, and that would require all the blogs on the list to disclose their revenue. Even if they all did agree to do that, it’d be impossible to verify they were being accurate.

are you assuming the lists are all focus on the same topic, which is making money online? does the amount money made online being considered as one of the factors?

Thanks for the mention!

I’m actually the only blog ranked on Google for the term “affiliate marketing”. I still haven’t done SEO either! I think it’s time to start now seeing as lists like these are on the rise. Woot!

Nice list nonetheless. Maybe the higher ranked blogs will start getting the tons of emails and IM’s I get on a daily basis asking them for help instead. I sure wouldn’t mind losing that part of the whole “web celeb” status.

This is an interesting way of ranking blogs. I hope to make it one day into the list. Hope to get the breakthrough soon to start earning a decent income with my blog. Btw, I also think that it would be nice to include more metrics into the ranking system like earnings per blog and adsense revenues earned since this is about blog revenue earned.

Excellent list. Please continue to update and grow it. I subscribed to the top 3, but the rest I never went to. My blog has finally broken through a few limits and become profitable that last few months (more than $50 a month now) so I find myself looking for advice on tweaking and squeaking more money out of the clicks I have now.

OK thanks for clearing that up (I am a bit slow). It would be nice to know how much the big guys make, so to get the ball rolling I can reveal that I have made $12 in 2 months with my blogs !

Correct, it is just about blogs that blog about making money on the web. Adding revenue into the mix would be great, but since nobody publicly reports their revenue it isn’t too easy to put that in the mix.

Am I missing somthing here ? I don’t see any revenue metnioned, just rankings. I guess it’s about blogs that blog about revenue, but it would have been nice to see some actually figures about revenue.
