Time for IndiRank to be upgraded - need ideas!
Bloggers! Now that we've completed a revamp of IndiVine, it's time for IndiRank to have an upgrade as well. Here are a few ideas I have as of now:
- We create a dashboard for every blogger (in their account), where they can see detailed info on their IndiRank.
- This detailed info will include customized tips on how to improve IndiRank - based on the values picked up by our crawler.
- We'll include the previous IndiRank - with graphs to show how a blog's IndiRank has changed over time, and why.
- We'll show a countdown timer to the next update.
Any other ideas? 
Alert : BUG DETECTED
Rennie , this is the message am getting when i checked my view stats in my account
Sorry, stats are only available for blogs which are active in your account. If you just joined IndiBlogger, please wait for a moderator to approve your blog and for your first IndiRank.
Have a question? Feel free to ask around at the forum and we'll help you out.
Am not a newbie , being bugging you guys for quiet sometime here 
Same here.
P.S. My Indirank decreased. 
Fixed!
Stats look Cool
All right - IndiRank updated and upgraded!
It's all been done very quietly - no email has been sent out as yet. Apart from the usual feedback on your IndiRanks, could you all go to your account and click on the new "View Stats" button in the blogs section? This will show you the dashboard with all the info as planned.The coundown is not active as yet, but it will be soon.
Continue with your ideas and we'll incoporate in the next few days! And as always, if you find any bugs, let me know. Keep blogging!
Great idea.Will get some suggestions from this
yes renie...but it isnt there in our dashboard u see :P ...I am so lazy..i would want everythin gin my dashboard..;)
Everything needs improvement. The improved IndiRank is being improved. Happy that is happening. Suggest to have a the top ranked blog being analysed and how it won that slot. It will be of very useful to other bloggers to have the best practice shared.
If we can have the top 50 blogs (50 per page or so) being displayed in a page (just the link to the blog), it would be great to browse thorugh the top blogs.
Apart from this, I dont have any points to be added.
Great Job Renie & team.

Hey Gopala, the top ranked bloggers are at this link.
I would want to see a list of top rank holders in my dashboard...say category wise...other thank that everything is cool..just waiting waiting waiting......
You can contribute to the IndiChild funds without pulling out credit cards - just help us win this entrepreneur contest here by voting and commenting!
IndiRank crawler is running... if you haven't blogged in a while, now is the time!
I shud b ready for a drop in d rank of my prsnl blog :(
Funding for the IndiChild funds is great, but being a student I will not able to contribute and thus I will be restricted someway. This cannot be allowed.
This is my opnion, don't feel bad.
For the first time in my life I would second Hemal. Lol :) I agree with that! But isn't it going to be tough? For you Renie?
Btw, are we going off topic? or off the record?
Great. Waiting for the countdown . . .
An idea: Maybe (thinking aloud) the people who have higher ranks, say above 75 can be given a week each in the forum where they speak out about content, widgets, alignment, ideas, relevance of comments, etc. Presently we do it only when asking for reviews. But by giving them a week each or maybe three days, the toppers can sound off. It can be called 'Indi Top Guns Gyan' or something like that.
Don't know whether its plausible but nevertheless . . .
Keep the great work going Renie and Anwin!
Joy always,
Susan
nice idea but we need to see how many people figure in that list. There might be too many, plus many wouldnt be ready for such an interview. Instead we can have a weekly member be interviewed and his/her interview is put up on the site. Something like what blogadda does.
I think you should not divulge the entire algoritm of how it is calculated otherwise spam users will start rigging their parameters to get high rank.
You can just tell the parameters (alexa, PR, technorati rank, backlinks etc) on which it is calculated.. and charts on each of them for previous months.
What say?
oops. I dont know what happened. I only wrote the folowing. Probaly this could be because that I copied it from word.
I have a small suggestion regarding the name. Generally most of us think rank means, lower the better. probably I can suggest you to name it as indiscore.
I like rest of your suggestions and when is it coming up?

I completely agree wit this . Its a valid point raised over here !
exactly , i though my ranking had come down, it was my friend who explained how it works :)
seconding this ^
Absolutely agree that this needs a change. However, I'd vote for keeping the name and changing the score to 100-score. A rank has a nicer ring to it ;-)
Renie - awesome effort! Looks very exhaustive and hence am not able to think of anything more! Many thanks to you and team!
Great ideas :) And if ideas can change life (As per Mr.Abhishek Bachchan) then definitely it can improve one's Indirank.I'll be waiting for the new features :)
