AideRSS Takes a Stab At Measuring Engagement

July 9, 2008 · Comments

Interesting post from AideRSS’s community manager Melanie Baker about how blogs measure engagement. I was ranked #1, and for that, I’m grateful, but I’m still working out the logic and thinking about what she had to say. Melanie’s right, though. Bloggers love metrics. Why? Because most of us don’t get paid to write. We do it for love and the desire to connect. Metrics tell us whether we’re connecting.

Anyhow, the findings are interesting, and I think worth checking out.

ChrisBrogan.com runs on the Thesis Theme for WordPress

Thesis WordPress theme

Thesis is the search engine optimized WordPress theme of choice for serious online publishers. If you’re a blogger who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.

With so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site. The theme is robust and flexible enough not only to accommodate a site like ChrisBrogan.com, but also to enable the site to run far more efficiently than it ever has before.

  • Hi Chris,

    Thanks for the mention, and congratulations on being the king! :)

    We have just launched a whole bunch of cool stuff, so I can finally offer more info on methodologies, logic, etc.

    Hope that sheds some light on things. Any questions or whatnot, feel free to give me a holler.

    @Shey - We've been doing a fair bit of hashing out re. how to best handle FriendFeed. It's definitely a major hub these days!
