Where does your blog fit in?
Subscribe RSS feed
My blog is a hidden gem, no doubts about it. But I do not understand why going with Technorati authority when a classification based on subscribers would have more sense… to me at least!
I know lots of blogs with no quality content but with high authority just because they play memes the whole week. That “meme” player deserves more consdieration than other creating great content even when it does not have lots of links to it?
Yes, I’m angry. Sorry.
Well if anything my blog will have to fall in the category of best hidden gem.
Great dude…..I will apply for it now…as My authority is increasing day by day..!!!!
Best of Luck to all of the Fellow Bloggers..!!!

All blogs start as Hidden gems. It just takes time to get there.
