Trying to find a list of blog sites

1 points by bdouglas1 18y ago

Hi... I'm trying to find out how to obtain a list of bloggers/blog sites for a survey we'd like to create. We're interested in talking to the "long tail" of the blog sites to try to get a feel for exactly what kinds of revenue is being generated for the sites for the various ad approaches. We're willing to share the data we compile, if we can figure out how to obtain a list, of who/where these guys are. We figured we'd post here and maybe someone would have insight into this! Thanks -Bruce bedouglas@earthlink.net

I can't help you but I thought I'd offer some advice. Telling us you want a "list of bloggers/blog sites" is useless - Google can do that. Asking us a more useful, thought-out question would likely provide you w/ better results.

  ok.. i'll bite. how the heck can one find a list of sites via google?? but to your point, we're looking at creating a couple of blogs, but wanted to figure out what one can reasonably expect to earn from a blog. To that, we figured on creating a survey/questionaire that would (hopefully) be completed by various blog owners. Which would necessitate that we have a list of bolggers/blog sites to contact. So, we're looking for a list of 400-500 bolg sites from the "long tail" that we might approach to complete a short survey. We're more than willing to share results of the survey if we can obtain/access a list of the blog sites. And no, we're not trying to "sell" anything, just conduct some basic research.

Hopefully I have understood your request enough to give you a suggestion - How about something like Technorati? It provides a ranking system, You can look up blogs by category and maybe take the lower ranking ones to establish the "long tail"? I hope that answers your question to some degree.
