Cathy brought this up this morning, so I thought I would look into it. A version of this went out as email to BloodhoundBlog contributors earlier today.<\/p>\n

Cathy’s question: What is the Google impact of being a BloodhoundBlog contributor?<\/p>\n

We have a Page Rank of 5 on the main landing page<\/a> — the “top” of the weblog. I expect us to be PR6 at the next recalculation.<\/p>\n

Either way, the link to each contributor’s web site in the landing page should be hugely beneficial, since that page has such a high Page Rank.<\/p>\n

A contributor’s spot in the list of Frequent Contributors also puts that person’s link on a huge number of other BloodhoundBlog pages: Each post, each category, each month, each author, each indexable page of posts, etc. The actual number of pages Google is “seeing” at BloodhoundBlog may be as good as infinite. Most of those pages will have a much lower Page Rank, of course, but every time Google spiders one of them, each web site it “sees” will be queued to be spidered.<\/p>\n

Plus: We get spidered dozens of times a day, by Google but also by Yahoo, MSN and other search engines.<\/p>\n

We have a Technorati Authority of 463 as I write, putting us within the top 7,000 blogs overall — third place among Technorati-tracked real estate weblogs. We have 3,868 total links from other weblogs — second place — which argues that many weblogs are linking to us multiple times.<\/p>\n

There’s more: After I started thinking about this, I realized I could go the whole thing one better. I’ve changed the way the meta-entry information is presented, post-by-post, to put the link to each contributor’s home web site there, as well.<\/p>\n

We’re already delivering a lot of clicks back to contributor’s sites, but this change should yield even more. Plus, every post is now that much more Googlejuice-enriched — with the link being very high within the content, from Google’s point of view. Even better, every theme change is retroactive: All of our past posts, going back forever, will have this link, also.<\/p>\n

I changed the date entry, too, so people can figure out Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
