Awesome Entertainment Blog

Darren Rowse, the internet wide acclaimed “pro-blogger” may well be having some competition that can finally overtake his market share on blogging newbies who look to monetize their blog. And who else than Daniel Scocco, who seems to be the most ready currently to take over the “blog-tips” domination of the web from Darren.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is a comparison of the recent site stats between Darren Rowse’s Problogger.com and Daniel Scocco’s Dailyblogtips.com-

1. Problogger Alexa Rank- 4,088 and Dailyblogtips Alexa rank- 12,623

2. Problogger has 8734 sites linking in while Dailyblogtips has 4873 sites linking in.

Dailyblogtips is popular for the following keywords-

• ping list
• seo blogs

5. Both have Page Rank 6

6. Average Time on Site: Problogger- 2.8 min/day and Dailyblogtips- 2 min/day

From the above stats is clear that Problogger simply blows away Dailyblogtips as a competition but what I would like to assert is that this domination is temporary. I am guessing this due to a few key facts that exist between these blogs.

 Problogger is a blog which is 4.5 years old while Dailyblogtips is only 2.6 years old at the time of this post. Yet, Dailyblogtips is the same Google pagerank of 6 as is Problogger. With time, Dailyblogtips can only be expected to improve here.

Dailyblogtips is having the half the link ins as Problogger and even the Alexa ranking is twice as low.  However, time is a factor in these stats. Problogger acheived this in a span of 4 years when his niche wasn’t  popular. Considering this Dailyblogtips is growing at a faster rate than Problogger.

Dailyblogtips has got more search engine ranking in most searched keywords such as “blog tips”, “blog promotion” and “wordpress themes”.

Personally, I hate how Darren Rowse keeps his blog homepage. It is so congested and difficult to navigate. Moreover, it also tends to have a longer page load time. The homepage now gives me an impression that Problogger is trying to fool you into buying something off his page. In direct comparison, if you download Dailyblogtips homepage, it is almost 80% faster. It has a three column, clean white template with demarcated advertisement and allocated navigation links. Simple yet effective, his blog is certainly more attractive and readable that Darren’s Problogger.

Overall, the content of both the blogs are pretty interesting but Darren gets too commercial and Daniel manages to underplay the paid ads in posts. If there is anyone capable of matching up to the standards of Darren, for me it seems that Daniel is the person.

Myfray has done a Highest Earning Bloggers post a few months back. This post is an update to the previous version. Blogs are becoming mediums of great earning potential as the websites below will let you know! One can see a common trait in all these popular blogs. And yes, I would like to let all readers know that unlike other blogs where any site that earns money is listed in the highest earning blogs, Myfray has filtered the list to actual blogs, that can be called blogs in the true sense and that are the highest earning blogs on the internet. The listing below is random with no ranking, so take a look.

• Dailyblogtips.com     (founder- Daniel Scocco)                            Theme- Blogging Tips
• Problogger.net            (founder- Darren Rowse)                            Theme- Blogging Tips
• Perezhilton.com         (fouder- Mario Lavandeira)                      Theme- Celebrity Gossip
• Arstechnica.com        (founder- Ken “Cæsar” Fisher)                 Theme- Technology
• Huffingtonpost.com  (founder- Arianne Huffington)               Theme- Current Affairs  
• Stevepavlina.com      (founder- Steve Pavlina)                               Theme- Personal Dev.
• Joelcomm.com           (founder- Joel Comm)                                    Theme- Blogging Tips

Of the above, it is easy to see what sells for the readers. Most readers are scouting for information on how they can improve their blog and basically monetize their website, most of the people in the highest earning blogs are the one’s who talk about SEO’s, traffic building, blog tips etc.
