August ’21 – NZ blogs sitemeter ranking

Sadly, this will be my last post of NZ blog rankings.

I have been doing this for quite a while and it will be sad to let it go. Many might say that blogs are no longer as important as they were some years back. Other forms of social media have taken over.

I think that argument has some validity but that is not the reason for my decision to pack it in. The real problem is my health. A had a minor stroke a year ago and have since found writing, and computer use, very difficult. This sort of activity is quite frustrating for me (I tend to end up swearing a lot) and it’s not helped by the way software nerds update things, forcing me to undergo the extra frustrations of learning new tricks simply to do the old things in the ways which were more comfortable.

Hopefully giving up a few jobs like this will remove some of the unhealthy frustrations. I hope to attempt other writing on my blog (it’s supposed to be good for me) but we will see. 

I anyone else is interested in carrying on this regular blog ranking please feel free to do so.


 

Here are the rankings of New Zealand blogs with publicly available statistics for July 2021. Ranking is by visit numbers. I have listed the blogs in the table below, together with monthly visits and page view numbers.

June ’21 – NZ blogs sitemeter ranking

I notice a few regulars no longer allow public access to the site counters. This may happen accidentally when the blog format is altered. If your blog is unexpectedly missing or the numbers seem very low please check this out. After correcting send me the URL for your site meter and I can correct the information in the database.

Similarly, if your blog data in this list seems out of whack, please check your site meter. Usually, the problem is that for some reason your site meter is no longer working.

Sitemeter is no longer working so the total number of NZ blogs in this list has been drastically reduced. I recommend anyone with Sitemeter consider transferring to one of the other meters. See  NZ Blog Rankings FAQ.

This list is compiled automatically from the data in the various site meters used. If you feel the data in this list is wrong could you check to make sure the problem is not with your own site meter? I am of course happy to correct any mistakes that occur in the automatic transfer of data to this list but cannot be responsible for the site meters themselves. They do play up.

Every month I get queries from people wanting their own blog included. I encourage and am happy to respond to queries but have prepared a list of frequently asked questions (FAQs) people can check out. Have a look at NZ Blog Rankings FAQ. This is particularly helpful to those wondering how to set up sitemeters. Please note, the system is automatic and relies on blogs having sitemeters which allow public access to the stats.

Here are the rankings of New Zealand blogs with publicly available statistics for June 2021. Ranking is by visit numbers. I have listed the blogs in the table below, together with monthly visits and page view numbers. Meanwhile, I am still keen to hear of any other blogs with publicly available sitemeter or visitor stats that I have missed. Contact me if you know of any or wish help adding publicly available stats to your bog.

June ’16 – NZ blogs sitemeter ranking

 

Blog June

There are about 300 blogs on the list, although I am weeding out those which are no longer active or have removed public access to sitemeters. (Let me know if I weed out yours by mistake or get your stats wrong).

Every month I get queries from people wanting their own blog included. I encourage and am happy to respond to queries but have prepared a list of frequently asked questions (FAQs) people can check out. Have a look at NZ Blog Rankings FAQ. This is particularly helpful to those wondering how to set up sitemeters. Please note, the system is automatic and relies on blogs having sitemeters which allow public access to the stats.

Here are the rankings of New Zealand blogs with publicly available statistics for June 2016. Ranking is by visit numbers. I have listed the blogs in the table below, together with monthly visits and page view numbers. Meanwhile, I am still keen to hear of any other blogs with publicly available sitemeter or visitor stats that I have missed. Contact me if you know of any or wish help adding publicly available stats to your bog.
