What Can be The Measures Of A Booming Cash Creating Blog?

There are several factors that affect whether you can say that your site is going to be a successful website and earn you a decent income. Not all factors apply to every income method and not everyone will agree with them all, so here is my collection!

Page Rank
First and foremost, the easiest to measure is Google’s Page Rank. A load of systems measure you by this ranking, but in reality, it does not actually say anything about your site. A high Page Rank does not guarantee traffic and a low Page Rank web site might get loads of traffic.

So yes, on most systems where you are trying to earn cash, the higher your Page Rank the better you will do, but aside from that it is merely a badge to wear.

Number of Backlinks
Most systems that report this measure Yahoo backlinks, because Google displays a lower answer whereas Yahoo seems to report every link it finds.

Again, it might be a pointless measure of success. It is quite simple to get loads of low ranking sites pointing to your site and it does not guarantee success. But advertisers like to see high backlink counts in the hope that they will also gain benefit from a mention on your pages.

Technorati Ranking
If it worked fully, this may be a half decent measure. It includes only links from the content of other websites, taken from their RSS feeds. So comments and link sites are excluded. You then get allocated a Technorati Authority based on your relative position in terms of how a lot of new links they have found for your website in the past few months.

So again, it is only a way of counting links. But so numerous good sites are unable to get themselves listed that not having a Technorati Authority should not really mean anything.

Alexa Ranking
At last - not a measure of links! Using the various Toolbar Button and the Alexa widget, this system can count how lots of visitors your website has and then rates you against other web-sites, worldwide and locally. It is also able to capture information about search terms and several other bits.

An exceptional idea and a good measure, if merely it was not so distorted! Because it depends on the installation of the Toolbar Button or the website Alexa widget, not all visits are recorded. Only those technical people with an interest have installed the Toolbar Button, so the counts are limited.

Actual Visitor Stats
This is the merely true way of measuring whether a blog is actually successful, but not something that often happens. The problem is that it requires extra code to be inserted to the header of the code to track visitors. Extra code that slows down the loading of the page. And this extra code is needed for every monitoring system. Not really efficient!

In conclusion, for a weblog to be successful as a paid website, it needs lots of good links back from other web-sites. Work on this correctly to also drive visitors to your site and you have everything covered.
