Is there a reason they use bloglines counts instead of Google Readers considering a lot more people use Google Reader?

Is there a partnership with bloglines? Or are Google's counts not really public despite feedburner having access to them?

There are not many parameters, so ReviewMe rankings totally sucks. If I want to buy a sponsored review, I watch Google PageRank, number of outgoing links, and a few other things like proportion between indexed pages and pages in supplemental index. And what do I have in ReviewMe? Sucky Technorati stats? Why they are using damned Technorati as a good case? They have to fix it, I think.

I gained a RSS star not too long ago on reviewme

On SR we also got 4 checks. Its a lot easier to bid on reviews with such a nice score

WTF? New breed of damned spam bots that copy user comments? Ambitious a lot =D

AndyBeard · 2 years ago

Yeah, there is another one going around currently that asks people of their experiences with Dofollow but is obviously a manual cut and paste job.

Maybe someone paid a monkey to comment on a list of dofollow blogs and to cut and paste a specific comment.

Having taken part in the conversation on so many blogs, and being subscribed to comments, it is easy for me to spot, and ban them.

Andy, I am afraid banning doesn't work for trolls/spammers that write from dynamic IP addresses. Maybe replaceing "Do follow for comments" to Top Commentators plugin might be a better option for you?

AndyBeard · 2 years ago

99% of comment spam doesn't get through unless it is manually created, and even then I am very good at detecting it.

Top Commenters just encourages junk comments, and doesn't allow for people to leave deep links and related links.

Ok Andy, let's say you can add nicks of "spammers" to a blacklist, and they won't ever get a link with rel="follow" attribute. I'm gonna write another post about that issue on my personal blog, hope you will be interested in my opinion as well as finding out all SEO aspects of removing nofollow from comments on a blog. Right now I'm counting only SEO disadvantages, but let me chew over this topic ;-)

the most important things to check before paying is google cache to see what has gone with the site. inbound links to see if pr is real (don't count on seomoz and such). outbound links i never buy if there are more than 35. many times you should check to see from where the traffic gets to the site, you can do that at whois.org or alexa.com.
i think thats it...

I like the idea of having other people review blogs. But what if we encounter a troll or someone who abuses the system. I just signed for pay per post and this my first post so I'm kinda nervous. Your blog will help out people as they find out about this new trend with blogs. it was a very informative post.
