Blog Metrics for wordpress by Joost de Valk
Posted December 13th, 2007 by Jeremy Schoemaker
Joost de Valk pinged me this morning about a new plugin he wrote called blog metrics. I really like it. It gives you some great stats about your site.
Looking at these stats you can see Rebecca Kelley and Neal Patel both out comment bait me !
I will let it speak for itself: (click on images for full image)



Hi I am Jeremy Schoemaker and ShoeMoney.com is my blog. 99% of the post here are done by me but you will see others occasionally make guest posts. This blog is fun to write but for my day job I run several online companies.

Wicked plug in. Will try it out. I like the word count. Cab keep track if certain articles actually pay off with more text.

Sweet plugin!
I A lot of great functionality!
December 13, 2007 at 4:42 pm
I would like to see traffic data as well. Have everything in one sitting!
December 13, 2007 at 3:42 pm
Any chance of getting some traffic data in there too? Like most loaded pages, funnel paths etc.
December 13, 2007 at 3:38 pm
WOW. Thats a lot of trackbacks. Im loving the detail on this. Time for me to go install
December 13, 2007 at 3:37 pm
Yes, they may write to our comment you, but then you get one in like the “Who should I Vote For” yesterday that gets 185 comments in less than 24 hours. That might bring up your total for the month.
December 13, 2007 at 3:24 pm
Yeah nice job joost
December 13, 2007 at 3:23 pm
3 a post? 32 a post.
December 13, 2007 at 3:23 pm
Holy shoe, thats alot of track backs.
December 13, 2007 at 3:23 pm
Thx
December 13, 2007 at 3:22 pm
Would you really want a median? or just a std dev?
December 13, 2007 at 2:57 pm
congrats on the impressive stats!
December 13, 2007 at 2:32 pm
Very interesting display of ego… oops I mean stats!
December 13, 2007 at 2:14 pm
that is a lot of trackbacks, almost 3 a post
December 13, 2007 at 2:01 pm
Would be interesting…in a couple of months when coming back to these stats and seeing the updated version. I’m sure Dillsmack won’t outrank him then
December 13, 2007 at 2:00 pm
Thats because Shoe rocks
December 13, 2007 at 1:58 pm
Very inspiring post. I love how shoemoney has like an insane amount of trackbacks. People love to write about him.
December 13, 2007 at 1:54 pm
Numbers and stats are always lots of fun. This looks cool.
December 13, 2007 at 1:50 pm
nice job from joost
December 13, 2007 at 1:44 pm
Wow. Dillsmack outranks you too
I can’t believe you have a 31 comments-per-post average. Then again, it’s a weighted average taking into account all the early posts that probably had much fewer comments.
Would be interesting if Joost de Valk adds a median score.
