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? Smile

What about being able to send private msg or email to other members here? There are few members I wanted to ask them question privately but can't due to not having those functions. I went to their blog, they dont have contact info published either.

Thanks everyone - glad you liked the dashboard! Smile

And yes, we will be renaming it to IndiScore soon!

Wait a minute! I'd vote for keeping the name and changing the score to a 100-score. After all, a 'rank' has a nicer ring to it ;-).

Very nice & good idea ! Ek idea jo badle aapki duniya !!

The new my stat is awesome..thanks a lot guys...BTW what is Alexa rank & Google Rank?

And i have gone through the indirank FAQ, but not clear how the ranks are calculated? Is it possible to give us some inside as how the ranks are calculated, what are the parameters being considered, then it becomes very easier for people to identify the areas of improvement as how to better their rank.

Thanks

Been waiting for this. Would it be too much of a hassle to rename IndiRank? Given what it signifies, I always thought 'Score' was a better choice than 'Rank', in the sense that higher is better in this case. 

Dont you think so?

Thanks,

Arun

Hey Archana, there's a seperate link for wordpress users, but you need to update the code every month. WordPress.com doesn't allow scripts! Frown

I did not expect my IndiRank to decrease.

My new blog(10 heads) to which I have not posted for 2 weeks and the no. visitors is also very low, got IndiRank 62, and my active Blog(Bamboo Lounge) has an indiRank 65. This is very confusing. The Alexa Rank (Which says lower is better) is also much better in 10 heads than in Bamboo Lounge and The Alexa Rank decreased very much. Is it the no. of tags that effects.

I have gone and checked Alexa and found that 430,891sites Innocent linked to  my new blog (10 heads) and only 2 sites have linked to Bamboo Lounge. I wonder how come my site became so popular.Laughing

Hello hello - long time. Nice ideas... agree with not revealing alogrithm in toto - too much temptation for rigging. How about an explanation of what certain Indirank ranges mean (eg: 0-10=You probably need to devote more time to writing, post more frequently; 90-100= You rock!)

Hey a great new feature Renie.. Congratulations :)

about improvements in IndiRank, I am really impressed by the suggestion of Amol that

Could we make Indirank procedure little more "relative"? Could the ranks be somwhow weighted with voting by Indibloggers, activeness on Indibloggers, commenting by Indibloggers? The whole point is making Indirank stick to Indiblogger and NOT make it pageviwes, Alexa rank specific!

Do look into it!

Its updated Laughing

Google PR stands at 4, while the Alexa PR is at 2.6. The stats section is awesome! And the widget already installed on my blog has reflected the change from 82 to 83, which made me wonder if Renie and team had updated Indirank incognito!

But the flip side is that I can only view the stats for my personal blog, while I cannot do the same for my geo-political space and my photo-blog.....any clues, why?

But when I goto my public profile page, I see the refreshed rankings for my geo-political and photo blogs, which in case of the former has nose-dived from 75 to 43! Cry (something that I did not expect)

However, my photoblog rank has increased from 25 to 49! But stats for either are not currently available!

But overall, good job folks - thanks

i recently posted my indirank widget on my blog and i noticed that the entire format and layout of the widget has gone haphazard. I guess that is due to the fact that my blog url exceeds the widgets width and that is causing all the problems.

 

Can we updgrade this somehow?
