IZEARanks for Bloggers Only
Anyone who blogs knows about the smack-down given to bloggers by one of the major search engines in December, right before Christmas. Three of my blogs that were page rank 4 reduced to page rank 0. Nothing else changed. The amount of traffic to my blogs remained the same, including the traffic sent by the search engine responsible for the problem.
The folks at IZEARanks developed their own ranking system, based on unique visitors and pages views. You now have an alternative for blog ranking based on data. Your blog rank is compared nightly to the ranks of other bloggers all over the world. So, you now may have IZEARank versus Page Rank, Alexa Rank or comSCORE Rank.
This means real data is used instead of esoteric ranking algorithms, tool bar extrapolations or proprietary database magic. No one will be able to strip IZEARank from your blog.
How Do I Sign Up for Real Rank?
Go to IZEARanks.com
- Register for IZEARanks;
- verify your email address;
- add your blog to the IZEARanks system;

If all is well, you will see a screenshot like the one above with green check marks. That all it takes to get started! In 24 hours, you will have IZEARank. You may add the ITK and claim code to all your blogs as I have done.
Above is a screenshot showing IZEARank. You may also see unique visitors and page views by using the drop-down menu. You will notice the green trend line, showing that blog rank is increasing over a week. You may adjust the time-line by using the light-bulb at the top of the page.
Simple, easy and accurate. That is IZEARank. Now, we can all get back to blogging.
