When The Sub-Standard isn’t fixated on John Key they are fixated on themselves.
They have a post where they claim to have not tens, not even hundreds but “thousands” of daily visitors.
To quote Darryl Kerrigan, “they’re dreamin’ ”
Not even two weeks ago Tane was trolling and spamming up DPF’s comments claiming that they were right up there in the top blogs of the country. That was until David poured Tane back into his bottle with some cold hard truth.
So, back to the present where we have “all_your_base” claiming “thousands” of daily visitors.
Time for a reality check. These are stats from Alexa, not perfect but the only reliable stats with which to gauge rankings;
The sub-Standard has Alexa rankings as follows;
Worldwide ranking – 533,395, not a bad ranking but still not in the top half a million blogs in the world.
NZ ranking – 1,171, again not bad but still quite a way of the play.
So let’s look at some other popular blogs shall we? Left and right so we can see if the claims of Tane and all_your_base stack up.
Kiwiblog, acknowledged by everyone except the people who hand out awards as the number one blog in New Zealand.
Worldwide ranking – 73,703, massive sta here, in the world David ranks under 100,000.
NZ ranking – 128, some 1,053 ahead of the so-called number two or three blog, The Sub-Standard.
Public Address – the darling of the left and the media. Russell’s bastard child, the leftists like to think that they have a better standard of discourse over at Public Address. They may have a better discourse but do they have the traffic?
Worldwide ranking – 184,037, wow, that’s a bit of a shock, quite a ways off the pace set by DPF but still way ahead of the self proclaimed number two or three blog The Sub-Standard.
NZ Ranking – 675, David flogs them here as well, and again the lies of tane and all_your_base are exposed. They are fast slipping down the rankings and I have only compared two blogs.
What about Not PC? Peter is the editor of Free Radical and a Libertarian activist, he should have way less rankings that the mouth-piece of the government, surely, shouldn’t he? Peter has also noticed this little phenomenon as well and has posted on it before when Phil U similarly made ridiculous claims about the popularity of his blog. [snigger]
Worldwide ranking – 345,207, whoopsy looks like the Lib has more of a following than the drivel mongers at the sub-Standard.
NZ Ranking – 802, yep PC beats them here too, oh dear they are down to 4th place now and quite some ways of the pace set by other blogs.
Ok what about me, Surely the “sewer” as the left are so fond of calling my blog will not rate as highly as honorable bloggers of the sub-Standard where they regularly have “hundreds of comments” on posts. Surely?, but wait!!!
Worldwide ranking – 184,185, well knock me down with a feather, that is better than even Public Address, eat that Russell.
NZ ranking – 304, again I beat out Public Address and of course the sub-Standard which increasingly, based on pure, cold, hard facts are lloking like self-promoting blowhards.
So, The sub-Standard is a long, long way from being the second or third most popular blog in New Zealand, a long, long, long way off. In fact it is almost embarrassing that they had a post about it and also went having a skite by spamming DPF’s comments with how cool they were.
It’s pathetic really. Next time fellas, when you have a rush of shit to the brains and feel like a bit of a skite, check the facts. On the other hand just play the stats the same way your preferred party does, just make shit up.
