  2. Karen (miscmum.com)on 26 Jan 2009 at 5:46 pm

    Top job, Meg. Happy Australia Day to you x

    Karen (miscmum.com)’s last blog post..Happy Australia Day!

  3. Megan from IMaginifon 26 Jan 2009 at 6:01 pm

    Gawd! That’s a big list. Thanks for giving up your Australia Day to do that Meg…you need the Order of Australia for having done that.
    Mxxxx

    Megan from IMaginif’s last blog post..Australians all let us rejoice. Really?

  4. Kelleyon 26 Jan 2009 at 7:05 pm

    I second what Megan said.

    That would have been a hell of a lot of work.

    You rock babe.

    Smootches

    Kelley’s last blog post..The post fuelled by exhaustion and the scent of my own sweat. Oh and a big helping of sooky-la-la-ness.

  5. Gemishton 26 Jan 2009 at 9:28 pm

    I’ll third what Megan said. Happy Australia Day :) Hope you didn’t spend the whole day slaving over a hot keyboard :)

    Gemisht’s last blog post..Shock and Grief

  6. John Lampardon 26 Jan 2009 at 9:32 pm

    Very cool, thanks for putting this together :)

    John Lampard’s last blog post..Photo: Happy Australia Day, Happy Year of the Ox

  7. Ianon 26 Jan 2009 at 10:06 pm

    Meg, thanks for the update.

    Ian’s last blog post..Crazy?

  8. stephentrepreneuron 27 Jan 2009 at 1:49 am

    That’s a lot of sites to go through! It’ll take a few days to add them all to my Bloglines RSS-reader, but it will be worth it. Thanks for compiling this for all to read and discover how to network, market and sell ourselves via the internet.

  9. Burgoon 27 Jan 2009 at 8:49 am

    Haha…. hooray! After so long of the “top 100” list breaking my little heart, I *just* manage to squeeze into the top 250… thanks for giving me some hope Meg! 😛

    Burgo’s last blog post..Neil Young & My Morning Jacket, live at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre

  10. Moses @ BeerandSport.neton 27 Jan 2009 at 10:45 am

    Top effort putting this together Meg, a huge amount of effort required there.

    Moses @ BeerandSport.net’s last blog post..Fark you Tubby

  11. Fionaon 27 Jan 2009 at 1:24 pm

    Going through some of them now – some extras I need in my blogroll! Thanks! for all the effort!

    Fiona’s last blog post..Sweet as

  12. Jim Dornanon 01 Feb 2009 at 7:25 pm

    Hi Meg,
    Where do you source your data from to determine how a site ranks (and also to classify it as Australian), and what does the “Index” column refer to?
    Thanks

    Jim Dornan’s last blog post..Compared to asbestos

  13. Megon 01 Feb 2009 at 8:18 pm

    Thanks to all for your kind words & encouragement :)

    Jim, please see http://blogpond.com.au/about-the-index/ for reference as to how the index is calculated. Typically blogs are considered on request, via other lists such as Leigh’s Top 100 Australian Women’s Blogs at http://www.crazymeezer.com.au/top-100-australian-womens-blogs/ or through my internet travels (severely limited lately).

    Bloggers who identify themselves as Australian via their about page – whether they are people living in Australia or Australian’s living overseas are generally eligible.

  14. CurlyPopson 02 Feb 2009 at 11:37 pm

    I’ve just found your list via Crazy Meezer and it’s amazing. I have many more blogs to check out now. I would love to be considered for the next one. My ranking is not quite up there yet but you just never know!

    CurlyPops’s last blog post..Moo Moo turns Two

  15. Laurel Papworthon 04 Feb 2009 at 5:57 pm

    noice, my blog had only been up a few days and already at 162 :)

    Can you add http://mysticmedusa.com please? She’s The Australian weekend astrologer from Sydney, and has just on 10k of uniques per day. Should be up there somewhere :)

    Laurel Papworth’s last blog post..Rituals: Death and publicity

  16. Robinon 05 Feb 2009 at 4:51 pm

    Wow! Thanks Meg. I noticed a link to here in my stats, and wondered what it was!

    This must have been a lot of work – appreciate it!

    Cheers – Robin from Melbourne

    Robin’s last blog post..Guy Finley Followed By An Illustrated Meme.

  17. Ema Hoffmannon 10 Feb 2009 at 5:05 pm

    Shameless self plug: could I add my blog to the consideration set; I’m currently on 109,675 on Alexa Intl; 2,817 on Alexa AU and 250,533 on Technorati.

    Oh, the blog is http://limeshot.com , it’s a design blog and I’m based in Sydney.

    Cheers
    Ema

    Greg’s last blog post..Mast

  22. Ange Recchiaon 18 Feb 2009 at 3:06 pm

    A mighty effort by you Meg! Thanks for putting this together. I wasn’t aware of this as we were away at the time so out of the loop a bit and no links showed up for me :(

    You may consider adding http://www.seanrasmussen.com/ and http://socialnetworkingnewsdaily.com/ to the list as well. I think they might feature in this list… if you get the chance to.

    Cheers and thanks Meg.

    Ange Recchia’s last blog post..15 Top Posts from Angesbiz

  23. Chrison 24 Feb 2009 at 4:52 pm

    Meg, thanks so much for adding my blog! Can’t wait to work my way up to the Top 100 Aussie bloggers. Cheers!
