Bjorn, Blogspot is owned by google, so they are likely to index you first; we picked you up at 04:28:21 pacific time, so 7 minutes after posting.
To get indexed more quickly you can ping us manually at:

A day late and a dollar short, here is where things stand for me: I've got results on Feedburner, Technorati, Google and Blogdigger. Still nothing on Icerocket.

This was a great experiment, Robert. Thanks for doing it. I'm sure our collective gratitude, reinforcing your own A-List blogger status, is a great bonus. Or, was it the plan all along? Either way, we all learned something.

What I really learned is that your experiment suggests something that I've suspected for a while: Tags are the latest in a long line of traffic aggregation tools which will be abused to the point of damaging their effectiveness.

Looking forward to the next one ...

You seem to have forgotten Blogdigger.com and Blogpulse.com

I wonder what the effect would be as this gets localized. In Romanian, for example, the word would be brrraaaporte or brrreeepatare.

Both Google and Technorati are about 7 days old for my stuff, so it's not just the "brrreeeport" post that's not up to date. It makes me wonder if the speed with which you're linked traffic-related. Mine has a very small (though oddly consistent) number of daily page views.

Do people really not know there is Yahoo! blog search?

The Y! blog search for this exercise is http://blog.news.search.yah... and it yields a respectable result - even if it's considered to be in beta.

Not showing up on any of them. Then again, I probably just don't know what I'm doing in order to make it work. http://delialynn.blogspot.c...

Showing up on Technorati, but not on Google or Feedster

I sent a link to DrudgeReport.com. I said it was a news worthy item.

Hahahaha Hahahahaha. Oh dear me, you people live in your little own worlds. (Trust me, as one who has had many REAL Drudge hits, this doesn't rate a single microscopic iota). And hasn't ANYONE noticed that the rats are leaving Technorati, like mad? Jason DeFillippo and Niall Kennedy, poof. Maybe that could account for the "results"? Everyone getting sick and tired of not being bought out?

Sorry to double post, but I just noticed something else that's interesting. The other bits of the web are starting to join in as well. Google Adsense has entries defined for 'brrreeeport'. Still nothing on Google Images or MSN Images yet (someones missing out there). And hardly anything at all on del.icio.us.

Someone has taken the time to register www.brrreeeport.com! That kinda scares me a little...

Robert,

I sent a link to DrudgeReport.com. I said it was a news worthy item. Let's see if they post anything about it on their site!

Great idea!

Scoble, Google frowns on techniques like this to improve page rank of your *new* blog.

Sorry, but thats a rule.

Jackie, make sure you have your blog set up to ping Technorati. Typepad is not always set up for this by default. Instructions are here:

It didn't show up on my site either (http://www.the-rodeo.com/?p....

I posted it yesterday, no google or technorati love yet (although they have indexed every post up to the last one).

Zoli Erdos — Tue, 14 Feb 2006 16:25:18 -0000

I don't show on the Technorati tags list, but I am there on regular search. This is actually quite typical: I often find my posts indexed minutes after the ping, which means they show up on regular Technorati search, but the tags are nowhere. A few hours later one or two tags show up, and it may take days before all tags are found. Go figure ....

Scoble-

As we blogged about yesterday, Feedster is currently enduring a series of upgrades. The current upgrade has limited the ability to have search results that reflect the most recent posts that are occurring in real time. I should have pinged you earlier when I saw that you started your "Brrreeeport" to let you know that we wouldn't be able to participate and for that I apologize. I think what you are doing is great and I know that Feedster would love to participate in future comparison tests.

In the end, you are giving smaller companies a larger voice and also showing that many times their results are far superior.

By the way, you should note that Google Blog search provides ESTIMATES on its first page of results. When I dug deeper, actually looking for the results, their totals went way down, and were right at the same numbers as Technorati's.
