PubSub is happy to announce Link Ranks! Link ranks are our way of measuring the strength, persistence, and vitality of links appearing in weblogs.
Whenever PubSub reads a weblog entry, we pull out any links appearing in the text. We use these links to provide "Referenced URI" query capability, allowing PubSub users to subscribe to domains, sites, or file types.
We're now using these links, and the source weblogs, to construct our link ranks. Visit the link ranks page to check out the top 100 sites, or to find out where your site ranks!
Link ranks aren't just a count of links appearing in weblogs. Rather we use value and time-based point scoring systems to represent the relative strength of links over time. To check out the current rankings, visit the link ranks page at pubsub.com/linkranks. You can read more about link ranks, and the formula we use to compile rankings, at pubsub.com/linkranks-about.
