Old Indirank Vs New Indirank - Which One Do you Like??

The IndiBlogger forum is now a read-only archive. Every public discussion is still here to read, but new topics and replies are closed.

This new Indirank seems to kind of irk me and does not motivate or excite me as much as the old one did.

When everyone (well almost) gets in the 80's, then the prestige or the joy associated is not that much. In the previous avataar even getting in the 70's was a big achievement.

Going through the Indirank thread, no one these days seems to drop, which is good but... well, not that good!!!

I would love the Indirank to go back to its previous image, that was so unpredictable and also much better than the current version!!

What do others feel? Which one is better, Old Indirank Vs New Indirank??

If most of us feel the same as me, then we can request Renie to change it to its old version!!

I like this one (for now). Can we wait for a few months before going back? ( I got no Google pagerank for my blog right now )

No one in the world can be claimed to be clever than you! Surprised

DS
from Mumbai |

Where are you Ranjith these days??

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Where else but in Roorkee. Tongue out

I log in regularly, atlaest once every two days but I haven't made any replies, thanks to the slowest connection that I have ever worked on... And also, I though that I had other important things to be done. But now I wonder what those things were and if I have done anything that important. Smile

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

By the way, have I made an appearance after too many days?

DS
from Mumbai |

Yeah!! You here after a long long break!!

Thats what I feel! Are the first sem results out?

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Yes. Managed to get a CGPA of 8.95. It would have been much better had I got similar marks in mid terms as I have in the final end term exam. Trying for a better CG this time....

DS
from Mumbai |

So you are a nine pointer!! Thats just great:)

DS

Leo, but this rank is boring. Everyone is in the 80's, no one dropping...

Leo
from Bengaluru |

I'm in 70s, DS. I wouldn't like a further drop right now Tongue out

Leo
from Bengaluru |

@Ranjith, oh well. if it works, well and good na? Innocent

DS
from Mumbai |

Think long term Leo.
Also I am in the 80's, but it just does not feel like that. Because every second Blogger is in the 80's too.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Erm. I got my PR. all willing to go to the old era of challenging Indiranks Cool

DS
from Mumbai |

This is great Leo! But lately GPR too is going bonkers!!!
It fluctuates too often.

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

... But not as often as the previous IndiRank. 

Arti
from Mumbai |

Indirank for me is more than just a number. I like it more because of other reasons. As long as the indiblogger team is not scrapping it entirely, i am really fine with any version. But i agree with u on the unpredictability part.

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Need to accept with you. After all, what we need is a number to look at and smile.... Smile

DS
from Mumbai |

Where is the happiness when all are in the 80's. Earlier, to be ranked in the high seventies or early eighties, it used to be a proud moment but now good ranks are given on a platter.

Arti
from Mumbai |

Yeah, a smile does more good than a number generated by an algorithm. And it also lasts till the next rank is out :p

Arti
from Mumbai |

Ds, the question you asked in the first line has the answer too. People do feel happy seeing such high numbers. But, still i do agree with your concerns.

Pooja Pradeep

I never knew the old versionSurprised.

So, I can't actually say anything about this topicSurprised.

But I can say this. I didn't join INDIBLOGGER to get my blog rated, my main intention was to find other writers and get inspired. It also helped me to improve my English and I got good readers.

So I don't mind how INDIRANK is given as long as there are people who would be willing to point out my mistakes and help me to improve.

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Glad to know that you weren't a victim of heart breaks arising out of unpredictable ranks.... Laughing

DS
from Mumbai |

Thats true Pooja. But these ranks do inspire and motivate us, dont they??
And completely agree with Ranjith!!!

Pooja Pradeep
from Bangalore |

@Ranjith

Hahahaha!!!Yeah! Thank god ;)

@DSYup :). They do! 

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

If your question is about the version which I would like to see, then my answer would be the version which would rate not just SEO and traffic but something that would be capable of rating our content and talent too, but there there doesn't seem to anythink as such on the offer by any of those ranking systems out there, either the new opne or the old one would mena the same to me. But as you and Arti have pointed out, the unpredictability of the previous ranks is what everyone generally enjoy, even if the rank dips a lot.

DS
from Mumbai |

To be able to judge content you need respected and highly talented people. Softwares and Programmes cant do that. So you too liked the older version??

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Yes, even I liked the older version.

P, something might be wrong... Whats the moz for your blogs?

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Hope that he doesn't turn into a baby soon... Tongue out

Ranjith

.... by obtaining an N/A rank.

so here goes ranjith with his double comments Wink

Animesh
from Mumbai |

LOL. remember the serial Potalee baba ki?

DS
from Mumbai |

Hehe! Yes, I do remember that serial Ani:)

I also liked the older rank. It was almost impossible for me to cross 80 but now I have crossed 80 but so have almost everyone else. I think Moz rank depends on how many comments you leave on other blogs etc. I don't feel like visitng lot of blogs and leaving junk comments to improve my Moz rank. I am thinking of forgetting ranks, SEO and just keep writing for some time and then think of a new self owned blog and from there build fresh. 

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

I think that moz rank is similar to PR but with a greater precision.

Hemal Shah
from Mumbai |

I think its just a number. I never cared or worked towards it. What matters me is when i am talking to others and if they are motivated by this, i am just happy :)

Mohini Puranik
from Dhule |

I feel happy if I get good rank, doesn't care much if I don't get!

But more importantly, improved the writing these days, diverse topics and very focussed, so getting more matured and rare readers, this makes me happiest than any other thing!

I feel like No. 1 rank when the right message is reached to right person, especially in case of poems!
