Many bloggers want to get on the first page of the rating of Yandex blogs. But is there any practical benefit from this? Is blog traffic increasing?
After reviewing the available statistics of several bloggers (the counters are installed only on liveinternet.ru diaries), the following picture came out:
1 place. Alexjdanov: 115 transitions from the + 600 rating from the
blogs.yandex.ru page, where the list of the first 10 bloggers is listed.
6th place. SkaSkin: 51 transitions + 308 from the page of
blogs.yandex.ru .
18th place. Stand alone blog Gossip: 79 transitions.
20th place. SOKOLOV_2007: 36 transitions.
23. Procurator: 19 people.
The average daily transitions for the last week are indicated.
Most visitors came from the main page of Yandex blogs, from the list of ten most popular authors (it should also be borne in mind that the top five most popular posts are on this page). 20-30 positions give already considerably less transitions. The second page (after 50 positions) gives traffic close to 0.
While a place in the ranking of Yandex blogs is more a matter of prestige than a tool for attracting visitors. Only top blogs from dozens get real benefit, some interest is shown in top 50, all other places do not matter.
