Top 100 Popular Conservative Blogs-Jan 31, 2010
Posted on January 31, 2010
The CONSERVATIVE BLOGS 100
We’re proud to announce a bi-weekly rating of the Most Popular 100 Conservative blogs on the web, the Conservative Blogs 100. This is our first. The ratings are based on Alexa traffic rankings 3-month average.
If we missed anyone, drop us a line in the comments with your site URL; we’ll include in the next ratings around the 15th of February. The Alexa rankings were largely taken from January 30, 2010 and include several from January 31, 2010.
The Top 100 Politically Popular Conservative Blog list contains all blogs of interest to conservatives or with a conservative point of view. Several Libertarian blogs are also included, such as Reason and Freedom’s Phoenix.
The list differs from the Conservative 100, in that it doesn’t contain the sites of large newspapers, news channels or TV/radio personalities.
We had debated on whether to include the blogs of popular conservative magazines; for now, they remain–largely because of the blogs of NRO, the Weekly Standard, Reason, the American Spectator and Commentary are up-to-date and provide information that does not appear in their print editions.
The number one slot is held by The Drudge Report, followed Breitbart.com/Big Hollywood and World Net Daily (even though WND hosts radio talker, Michael Savage, on its site).
The top five is rounded out by Hot Air and Free Republic.
DBKP released its Conservative 100 list earlier today.

If we missed your blog, leave the title and URL in the comments and we’ll include it, if it qualifies, in the next ratings.
UPDATE: I see we’re already out-of-date: missed the Right Scoop, which would have made the list at #99.

NOTES:
* #14 – 9,337 Confederate Yankee, Ace of Spades HQ, and Jawa Report all combine for the same ranking, as well as other mu.nu blogs. Alexa treats these sites as one in its rankings. Because these are all popular conservative sites, we’ll leave it like this with the note until Alexa distinguishes between them.
** 17,363 -The same holds true for First Thoughts, The Anchoress, Gateway Pundit, Spengler, Secondhand Smoke, Evangel and Postmodern Conservative are all at First Things. All the above sites register an aggregate total like the mu.nu.
# Michael Savage is part of World Net Daily and their traffic combine to form one total.
# Instapundit is part of the Pajamas Media site and both combine for the one total.
# Don Surber is part of the Charleston Daily Mail site and both combine for the one total.
# Big Hollywood is part of the Breitbart.com site and both combine for the one total.
## Big Journalism, the Daily Caller and Blogs Lucianne Loves are all less than 3 months old, so their ratings are not nearly as high as they will be after they have all gotten a full three months under their belts. Expect the biggest movement on the list to occur with these 3 sites over the next few ratings.

We got the idea of a regular ratings from several sources while looking for this information several weeks ago: John Hawkins’ Right Wing News The Top 40 Conservative Blogs For 2009 (Version 1.0) from March 2009 and a later 2.0 version in June 2009; Conservatism Today’s 24 Best Conservative Blogs, August 2008; and, Top 133 Conservative Blogs, November 2009. Also, here’s a list of the UK’s Top 100 Conservative Blogs. And one more: (UK) Top 100 Conservative Blogs.
We plan on updating our rankings every couple weeks or bi-monthly–whichever is more convenient. We will base the ratings on popularity as measured by Alexa rankings of traffic.
