Ted Murphy and IZEA Still Love Google PageRank

Posted on August 11, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging, Paid To Write | 2 Comments

Ted Murphy, founder and CEO of IZEA (parent company of paid blogging companies PayPerPost and SocialSpark) despises Google PageRank so much that his company created a competing website metric system called RealRank.  But I’ll allow him to speak for himself…

From a PayPerPost Community Blog post dated November 17, 2007-

Once again Google has proved that PR has little to do with blog traffic, influence or relevance and everything to defending their monopolistic stranglehold on search and online advertising.

IZEA Needs To Improve Internal Communication

Posted on April 28, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging, Paid To Write | 2 Comments

Setting aside, for the moment, the fact that more than five months after its release, IzeaRanks.com is still missing a significant number of both site visitors and page views, the IZEA development team really needs to take a closer look at how their various platforms (IZEARanks, Social Spark, and PayPerPost) communicate with each other. I’ve seen other blog posts and threads on IZEA’s own forums about other people’s situations, but I’ll leave them to tell their own tales. Instead I’ll…

A Real World Case Study Of Website Ranking Systems

Posted on April 15, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging, Technology | 3 Comments

I was all but absent from Philaahzophy for a couple of months for a number of reasons (both personal and professional), but I realized this absence also gave me the perfect opportunity to run the various ranking systems through their paces and see just how effective each of them really is. The four ranking systems I’ll be examining are Google PageRank, Alexa Rank, Technorati Rank, and IZEA’s RealRank.

First, their definitions/descriptions in their own words-

One Short Term Goal Achieved

Posted on January 30, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging | Leave a Comment

When Izea first rolled out their new IzeaRanks.com I set myself a goal of moving Philaahzophy into the position of top ranked political blog. While climbing through any ranking system is seldom easy, the fact that they’re regularly underreporting my stats by as much as 50%, and not reporting the stats of the other political blogs at all (despite all the hype about transparency in RealRank), made this all the more difficult. But, I still managed to do it, as…

Getting Screwed By IzeaRanks - Big Time

Posted on January 17, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging, Paid To Write, Technology | 4 Comments

IzeaRanks, the new website the folx at PayPerPost have rolled out to present their RealRank system to the world, has been live for about a week now. Unfortunately, its been attacked by much of the blogosphere and is doing little to work against those claims. RealRank was rolled out ahead of schedule as a way to assist PPP bloggers who lost their PageRank as a result of working with PayPerPost. Unfortunately, again, it’s screwing many of us over as well.

Those…
