   This reminded me of something I noticed yesterday – Domaining is as popular as Pizza (.com):

   Every blog I see on this list is one that I expected to be there. No surprises here.
   Thats for all the great info you give. Your blog should be on this list soon!

   I didn’t know about the blog, DotSauce.com Thanks for adding one more blog for my daily reading.

   Not exactly a blog, but DnJournal.com is 22,337 which is clearly a leader in our industry. It would also be interesting to note that 3 of the current top 4 sites in your list are included in Google News as well. DotSauce is not from my understanding.

   Think you left out the original and #1 highest Alexa ranked news/blog site, my good friend Ron Jackson at http://dnjournal.com/ ranked 22,607

   I don’t understand this alexa stuff

   If its a 3 month av – does the following mean that thedomains com is the 37252 most visited site on the net over the last 3 mths??

   TheDomains.com – 37,252

    This is definitely interesting stuff – more interesting the more I think about it:

    - about half of the list do not use “domain” in the name
    - ElliotsBlog.com & ChefPatrick.com are both in the same ballpark as Domaining.com, according to Compete, and do not have “domain” in the domain name (I would have guessed that Domaining.com would be well ahead (only based on my visits, not any judgement of the content)). Maybe duplicate content is hurting SE traffic on Domaining.com?
    - I am wondering about the “active” ages of the blogs

    Plenty to research when I get back from the beach

    “I would have guessed that Domaining.com would be well ahead”

    Since Domaining.com is not really a blog perhaps Arbel did not include it in his research.

    Did you include Domaining.com Arbel?

    Guys Thank You For all the great comments…

    Hi Michael (TheDomains.com) and Patrick !

    For me Domaining.com and DNjournal.com is not a BLOG…its a WEBSITE.

    Again there are a lot of websites that also not participate in my list like “Estibot.com”, he has a blog inside his site.

    I put a list with what i consider a blog.

    Don’t get me wrong (I LOVE DNjournal.com but i think it is more website than a blog).

    Cheers everyone, and again thank you for all the comments.

    A few points, and this coming from the guy who’s #1 on this list:

    1. I think Compete.com is more accurate that Alexa
    2. Not sure, but I think Alexa is based on uniques, or “reach” as they call it. It’s important to consider more than uniques, such as visits, page views, etc. when considering the traffic of a web site.
    3. Source and quality of traffic is very important, too. Technically, you can “buy” your way up a traffic list. Some of the months that I get record traffic includes a lot of digg traffic or other social traffic, which really doesn’t have much value.

    Anyhow, good info but I caution against reading too much into the data.

    Hi Andrew !

    I totaly agree with you that there are more info to consider when we are trying to determine who is the best blog in the industry…

    The idea behind this post is to give only the Alexa ranking…

    In the future i will do more research in the other tools out there, but it is important to understand that i didn’t try to determinate who is the best blog in the industry , i just wanted to give interesting information form Alexa.

    Again, Thank You Very Much for your Comment.

    Cheers,

    Arbel

    Arbel, The thing with blogs and even ‘news’ sites is that every author has a unique perspective, different voice and something to add to the conversation. It’s good to have so many voices, but the beauty is that there really is no “best”

    @Andrew are you saying you bought your way to #1 ?

    Wow! My efforts are working! I found that if I post a blog only once a week or so, my Alexa ranking will NOT go below 100,000. My tests are a success!

    Successclick.com is working hard to be ABOVE 1,000,000. I only want readers that believe nobody is anybody until they uproot GoDaddy as the #1 registrar, and that an “auction” site isn’t an auction unless you have more than one bidder, then it’s just a listing site, and the COMMISSION taken by the site should reflect that fact. More on that later.

    Nice article. Stay tuned as I push my blog Alexa status further into the nether regions.
