Sphinn - Many Voices or Just a Few?

Posted by Marios Alexandrou, SEO Resume.

A recent post on statistics I gleaned from looking at 2,500+ Sphinns resulted in a request for me to look at one area I had missed. Jeff Quipp of Search Engine People wanted to know which sites had their posts go hot most often. I'm not sure why I didn't look at those counts the first time around so thanks to Jeff for suggesting it. Anyway, I finally got around to pulling the information together.

Overall I'm pleased with the variety of content I, as Sphinn reader, am being exposed to. Sure, 25% of what goes hot comes from just 10 sites, but over half of what goes hot represents the thoughts of over 50 blog owners. I think that's pretty good for the relatively small niche of search engine marketers that also blog.

Top 5 Sites: 17.12% of hot Sphinns
Top 10 Sites: 25.44% of hot Sphinns
Top 25 Sites: 40.53% of hot Sphinns
Top 50 Sites: 54.66% of hot Sphinns

Here are the sites that make up the top 10:

On the other end of the spectrum are the one-hit wonders at 12.3% i.e. sites that have had just one post go hot.
