Listing with Bloggapedia can Increase Blog Traffic

By , About.com Guide

What is Bloggapedia.com? Bloggapedia is a basic blog search engine that seems to have elements for a social network, but is dysfunctional and unused. Seems moderately popular as a search engine and a washout as a social network.

Class of tool: Blog Search Engine

Other blog search engines: View the definitive list.

From Bloggapedia: Bloggapedia is a blog directory, blog search engine and a social network for bloggers. Register now to find other bloggers and blog posts that you like!

Cost: Free for a basic listing. $49.99 will buy a featured link subscription for one blog. It’s a promoted search service.

What makes it different? The attempt at a social network makes it different, but because its underused, this feature is lame.

Popularity: Alexa site ranking: 27,903 (worldwide traffic rank) with 3,628 sites linking in.

Who is using? There are no statistics provided online.

Ease of use: Simple account setup.

Time to setup: A few minutes will setup both a profile and blog submission.

Time to maintain: If you avoid the social community, then it shouldn't take any extra time at all. And you should avoid the social network.

What you need to know: Without a promoted listing, your blog may get lost.

Bottom line: It seems to receive moderate traffic and your blog deserves the extra exposure that this engine will bring, but remember: this isn't Google.
