The April 2011 standings have just been released for Wikio’s Beer Blogs. I’ve been knocked from my four month reign at the top, and Jeff from Beervana has once again assumed the #1 Spot. Congratulations Jeff. Here’s what happened to the Top 20 over last month:

Ranking made by Wikio
As usual, I added the relative movements of each blog from last month. This month, three new blogs cracked the Top 20 (though some had been there before) and three dropped off. Apart from #1 and #2 switching places, there was again very little movement near the top, with three through five staying put from last month and the rest of the top 20 seemed less volatile this month, too. As always, I continue to stress that this is just a bit of fun and that we shouldn’t take it too seriously.
I’m still amazed that the Session Beer Project is in the top 20, because believe me, the hit rate ain’t much!
Crap. Now I need a tattoo on my neck that says #6. Hope they can cover up the one that says #7
That’s what lasers are for ….
Thanks, Jay. I’ll keep the seat warm for you–I expect not to be here long!
I think Wikio’s blog rankings are flawed. If you happen to host a popular topic for one of the sessions, you’re going to pop into the top 10 for one month. But links from other blog stories into your blog is not a very good reflection of ranking.
I was at 9 in March and 19 for April. As much I as I like being ranked highly, it’s just not accurate. Given my traffic and readership I should be much lower.
