Very cool list, I found your site through Digg. Thank you for sharing this compilation. I request that the category of “Personal Development” / self-improvement be added. I like how you showed the PR, Alexa, and # of backlinks. IMO, Technorati is becoming less relevant. What I think would be interesting would be to compile estimated earnings from each of these sites… Thanks again.

Thanks for the useful source, it will be interesting to see if the positions change over the next month or year. I agree with what 4 mind 4 life said about Technorati becoming less important to the blogosphere.

Some of these rankings make no sense to me at all. VSInvestor.com has terrible rankings all around and only 321 backlinks. Blog4humor.com is almost just as bad. If you don’t have a top five, just skip that category… but I don’t like seeing worthless blogs getting undeserved attention

Jim, those are the top 5. If I can’t find any others then well… that kind of makes it the top 5. I agree with you that their rankings suck, but they have no other competition, how about starting a niche blog with that category in mind?

I always find it interesting to see what the pagerankings are–there are a lot of 5s in my niche and jumping to a 6 is a bit of a tipping point.

That’s a very interesting list – it’s really good to have something to compare myself to and somewhere to aim for. Maybe next year you’ll see codegobbler.com in there
