It’s been quite a busy week around the Blogged offices. The launch went great and we’ve gotten some great feedback. We want to thank everyone for their support and good wishes.
We are working furiously to improve the site and creating tools to make finding blogs easier. We’ve already added a few new things based on what you had to say:
- You can now subscribe to a blog’s RSS feed (Thanks Michael!) when viewing a blog’s profile page.
- Added an optional email field in the “submit a blog” page.
- Added a link to request a review of a blog
- Improved the related blogs algorithm
Our editorial team is also hard at work reviewing and categorizing blogs. This is a big job since there are millions of blogs out there. OK, maybe not millions.
We welcome and read everything that comes our way and strive to improve our site based on your comments and suggestions. So please don’t hesitate to contact us at support@blogged.com.
This site is all about blog discovery. It’s a place for readers to discover interesting blogs and for authors to discover who their readers are. Blogged goes beyond being a traditional blog directory. We focus on providing tools for bloggers and readers alike. Through our database, readers can discover and explore new blogs. Through our social network, blog authors and their readers can communicate and interact directly with each other.
Our blogs are reviewed, rated, and categorized by our editors, so you won’t have to experience the frustration of filtering through blogs that are either spam or irrelevant. You’ll be able to find blogs that you would have never found through a traditional blog search.
Blogged doesn’t require anyone to own a blog to sign up. In fact, most of our tools are geared towards readers. We offer bookmarking, sharing, and feedback functions. Anyone can review and rate a blog and help it rise in the rankings. With some handy tools at both the site and post level, Blogged is a great place for readers looking to start out their day with a fresh list of unread posts from their favorite blogs.
Blog authors can benefit from knowing how their site is perceived. With easy access to reader comments and ratings, authors can see opinions, suggestions and even criticisms. By being listed on Blogged, owners will make their blog easily available to their specific audience. Aside from a title, description and rating, screen shots are made available to attract readers.
Of course we had to create a blog for Blogged. We’ll keep you updated on what’s going on with the site, in the blog world, and lots of other fun stuff. We’ve gotten some great support so far and hope to continue to grow. Again, welcome and we hope you find the site not only useful, but fun as well.
