Rankings do not mean anything unless it is helping you meet your bottom line. Are you selling what you want to sell? Are you getting people to click on links and go where you want them to go? Are people leaving comments? Is your blog active or are you getting clicks from those who are not interested in what they find once they arrive? I really do think, though, that high rankings of some sort make people check your blog out. When one of my blogs was announced on as one of the Growing Wordpress Blogs my traffic increased. People suddenly respected me and my talents. It was a huge deal to me because I only had the blog for 3 months before being bestowed with this honor and there were only 100 on the list and the previous month there were over one million Wordpress blogs. People took notice for a little bit. Then things settled down a bit, but some regulars continued to come back on a regular basis. It is so refreshing to hear someone say what I have often thought, "Do rankings really matter?" I agree whole-heartedly! Rankings do not mean anything unless it is helping you meet your bottom line.

What really matters is the number of comments your blog gets, it shows how people are interested in what you write, and could give a feedback.

While it's nice to have some kind of arbitrary score devised by some company and calculated by a computer, there's no better "score" than the feeling I get when I am interacting with my readers. I live for comments. I can’t help but agree with this post.

Without ranking I would not have known how to track the performance and everything. The tips really come in handy. Nothing but agree.
