   I wounder about the “Entertainment News” niche…its so small.

   And http://technotip.org is proud to be a technology blog….

   Anyway, thanks for the research and thank you Daniel for sharing with us..

   That’s pretty impressive “Green” warranted its own category. And also surprising that overall, there really aren’t that many “make money online” blogs.

   Wonder what % of the “business” blogs consists of internet marketing and SEO blogs?

   Also interesting that “Green” wasn’t colored green.

   “Technology” seems like a very broad category and could easily overlap with another vague label “Business.” Is daily blog tips technology or business?

   PS: Hey DBT – I also used your RSS buttons on my blog. Hope you don’t mind. Let me know if you have issues.

   Wow great stuff… loved the visuals. I like that it was assumed that blogging is more about ability than budget – so true.

    Thanks, I was looking that piece of information for a couple a days.

11. ThoaiOnline on August 21, 2008 12:37 pm

    But… where are the blogs about making money online? I think many of them are among the top.

12. Kurt on August 21, 2008 1:18 pm

    Thats great. I would rather take it another way… Technologies blogs are very popular…I would rather try to blog on those which have less blog articles so that when someone search for the particular topic…the blog has a higher chance of being in the top 3.

    Now there is also the very important part of why we blog. We would surely want to blog on topics we like or are interested in. I particularly like to blog about politics and some tech stuffs and also about everyday events and situations that occurs.

    By the way am doing a small survey about bloggers. I would be glad if any of you buddies here would participate. I would give a backlink with the results on sunday. My blog is not that popular but am just doing it for fun and to see bloggers feelings and choice.

    I would not easily of guessed that Tech is the leading category.

14. Lex G on August 21, 2008 5:55 pm

    Time to start a science fiction blog

    I was surprised that travel did not make it up as a category.

16. Danny Dover on August 22, 2008 4:15 pm

    I am really happy to hear that all of you enjoyed my article. Daniel thanks for sharing it. A couple follow up answers for you all:

    technotip.org – “Wonder what % of the “business” blogs consists of internet marketing and SEO blogs?”

    None of them. I put all of those under technology/search engines

    Indie Music – “Also interesting that “Green” wasn’t colored green.”

    I know I know….!!

    tacogirl – “I was surprised that travel did not make it up as a category.”

    So was I. I talked to a group of travel bloggers and they suggested that it might be because travel is something people only think about for short period of time, thus they have no need to subscribe to rss. Also a lot of travel blogs are only intended for small audience (families and friends)

    Thanks again and let me know if I can do anything else,

    Danny

    tech is one of most overrated sector in blogging imho

18. jennine on August 24, 2008 7:26 am

    hmm… interesting… considering clothing sales trumped tech sales last year, it’s interesting there isn’t more fashion blogs up there.

19. Kedoa on August 24, 2008 12:58 pm

    Wow, i can see you have done that with mac. Looks like technology dominates.

20. CHARON on August 27, 2008 12:14 am

    Thanks for this nice and useful information.

21. Roschelle on August 27, 2008 2:23 am

    Most of the top blogs are fantastic. Then there are others that make you wonder ….WTF!!! But I know it’s based on several factors.
    I love blogging! Getting to the top (which some do want to admit) would be great. If for nothing other than the traffic that comes with it. The more your blog pops up in search engines and on other sites…the more likely you are to get readers to peruse that material you work so hard to provide.

22. Roschelle on August 27, 2008 2:24 am

    ***** don’t want to admit…sorry for typo…it must be contagious

23. Frank Gil on August 29, 2008 4:35 am

    Tech blogs take up the most spaces, then how about gossip ones?

24. Dan N on September 14, 2008 10:55 pm

    Wow I wouldn’t have thought tech blogs would be so disparaging from the rest. How about blogs about people who are famous for no reason? I wonder where those rank.
