Second!? Serious?!
I’d love to see Jules’ reasoning for that.
Not that I’m not delighted.

To quote channel 9 “Still the one”
Would be good to compare these based on Aussie traffic alone. As our audience is very US and UK centric. AUS is 3rd

Just IMHO but until Problogger is included in the list, it’s not fair game. C’mon Julian. sort it out 🙂

It’s going to be near-impossible for anyone to take that spot from you, Ash.

Iain, I’m with you, I’d love to see Darren in here. Although, I’m inclined to agree with a position that says he’s not about “marketing” and more about “personal branding” and “social media”.
Not that that should exclude him. There’s lots to be learned from him.

Nice one Gavin on 3rd place!

Great list with a transparent methodology – Julian’s opinion is the only debatable factor in the list. Considering that it’s still pretty good.
Ash, I totally agree, the definition of ‘top Australian blog’ could be interpreted two ways:
1. published by an Australia – read by anyone
2. published by anyone – read by Australians
3. published by an Australian – read by Australians
I’d like to see each of these lists, and one company that can do this is Hit Wise.
I put it to Hit Wise to step up and rank the list based on Australian traffic – c’mon!

Trib – I think we agree on this. Personally I believe there is no logic to say that that Problogger is not relevant to the digital marketing landscape. He offers more value here than most.

Congratulations everyone in the Top 50 and well done Tim!
Thanks to our great team of guru bloggers we have on the site (many with their own blogs on the list).
I’ve just added a comment on the B&T link, but just wanted to clarify – we aren’t on the AdAge Power 150 list because we haven’t claimed our blog yet on Technorati or something similar/trivial. (Custom CMSs allow for a lot of fun when inserting tracking codes!)
Anyway, an outside congratulations to ProBlogger too as he really is the King of the Aussie blogosphere.
Cheers,
Kate Kendall – Online Editor.

Your list is different to ours.
The top 15 blogs for example is:
1. The Inspiration Room, 2. BannerBlog 3. ServantOfChaos
(If we include Problogger, then it may be slightly different.)

You would think ProBlogger would have to get a mention for sure!
