@Justin – I did try but no response. It’s very weird because the inbound links go to segala.com my profile amongst other profiles, the blog etc etc. They all appear to be seen as separate blogs for some strange reason – hence why our stats are weird. I’m not too concerned though as I don’t measure analytics for the blog. I measure the quality of relationship building. When the Head of Brand Innovation for McCann Worldwide says that mine is the only blog he reads that’s special.

@John, by SL you don’t mean Segala right? If you do, then yeah of course it’s Irish

Paul — there’s a few sites that should be combined! I wonder if it’d be possible to contact T’rati to get them to fix that…

John — alternatively, mail me with the extra blogs’ URLs and I can add them on my end.

I have no idea what those numbers mean.

incidentally, Mr Mulley, is there any way that I can import all my posts etc to the new wordpress from blogs.ie’s retro WP-MU(?)

I think it’s affecting my rating…

Our stats on Technorati have always been very strange, possibly ecause our entire site is based on wordpress. Trackbacks to Segala.com for example, are counted as a different site to segala.com/blog

So combining all the stats, we’d beat the lot of ya Well, either that or we’d end up at the bottom of the heap with Twenty Major

It's harder to get into that OPML file than it looks. I know I've submitted an address more than once. [Meanwhile, does Linden Lifestyles count? It'd hit this list at #4 and Justin's around #9 if it were in there.]
