This week, we will be updating Zedomax Network. There are some degrading sites on our network that will have to be removed and we’ve got about 50 more blogs to add so hold on while we update one by one.
What is Zedomax Network?
It’s a network made up of quality blogs and websites. Basically we are going to gather up about 200 to 300 “quality” blogs and do some “group” advertising for everyone in the network.
Plus, everyone will benefit from network traffic, SEO, and most importantly, network negotiations with advertisers and publishers.
How does it work?
First, you will need a quality blog (no porn, spam, splogs please). For details, shoot an e-mail to zedomax [at] gmail.com.
Alexa will never be as accurate as “real” stats but at the same time, I believe they should provide the most accurate statistics as possible.
Let’s see what happens over the next couple days.
If your Alexa ranking has “shot up” or “tanked”, please feel free to leave a comment with you website and your inputs on the new system.
Check out the new features this new ranking system will bring:
In recent months we’ve heard from our Alexa users that understanding Internet usage beyond Alexa Toolbar users was increasingly of interest. Ask and you shall receive!
We listened to your suggestions, and we believe that our new rankings system is much closer to what you asked for. We now aggregate data from multiple sources to give you a better indication of website popularity among the entire population of Internet users.
You gave us many other suggestions as well, and we are working hard to implement them. We won’t tell any secrets just yet, but you can expect to see new features rolled out over the coming weeks and months.
Below are a few common questions we anticipate from the Alexa community, along with our answers.
My site’s ranking has changed. Was it wrong before?
Your ranking wasn’t wrong before, but it was different. Alexa toolbar users’ interests and surfing habits could differ from those of the general population in a number of ways, and we described some of those possible differences on our website. While the vast majority of sites’ rankings were unaffected by such differences, we’ve worked hard on our new ranking system to adjust for situations in which they could matter.
The new rankings should better reflect the interests and surfing habits of the broader population of Web users.
Why are the long range graphs gone? I can only get 9 months of historical data.
We are recalculating historic traffic data and will continue to add it over the coming weeks. We apologize for the inconvenience, but should have several years of data back on line shortly.
Will you change the rankings again?
We are constantly working to ensure that we provide the most useful data that we can. We will continue to fine tune our algorithms but don’t foresee any additional big changes. If you think something is amiss please let us know.
I liked the old rankings better. Are they still available somewhere?
We liked the old rankings as well. However, we developed the new system in response to the huge number of requests we got from users like you, and now that it’s done we like it even better. We hope you will too.
We think that having more than one ranking system at a time would be confusing, so we have removed the old rankings.
Do you want to know what I think about this?
Definitely. We’ve been collecting suggestions and ideas for months now, and would love to hear more. If you have thoughts on what we’ve done so far, or ideas on what we should do next, please share them with us.
Well, I was over at AdTech 2008 today, an exhibit which shows off America’s best advertising/publishing companies. Today, I found many new ways to monetize our blogs and social networks through various different affiliate and publishing programs.
I did get a chance to run into John Chow and also ask my own questions about how to make money online and the secrets behind his success.
I figured to take a video and share it with the world so maybe it will help you make more money too:
McLady.Net, a celebrity blog part of the Zedomax Network, is for sale over at Digital Point or Sedo. My blogger friend Colbert is selling it due to similar reasons why I am selling sites.
Go bid and get this site before it’s too late! With BIN of 30K USD, not too bad for a site that makes $1K per month. You can turn this site into a real money maker, look at a similar site like PerezHilton.
Hi everyone. We’d like to announce the fact that Zedomax Network has just broke through 1 million hits per month!
Compared to couple months ago when we were getting about 450K hits, we are now officially part of the Million Hits Network!
Number of unique visitors has also jumped to a whopping 445K visitors, up from 250K visitors in November.
Wow, things are looking up and most of this success has spawned due to the fact that all of blogs have great content and does not rely on any one social network to boost traffic.
With the recent addition of our latest Wiki project, SiteHoppin, we are able to bring more visitors to our sites and also bring up the overall stats.
We will be working hard around the clock to keep bringing you great content on the Zedomax Network.
Without our core bloggers, this would never happen. We’d like to thank also our readers for getting us to this point.
Although we are really not making any money at this point, we will be bringing you more great content and new Web 2.5 websites like SiteHoppin and more…
Wow, it’s been a fun ride with our new site, SiteHoppin.com. Although we haven’t really made that much money off traffic, the good news is that we’ve “doubled” our network traffic as whole in just 2 weeks since SiteHoppin’s public beta launch!
It’s great that our traffic is going up, but how can this help you? Go submit your blog posts at SiteHoppin‘. (The more you bookmark, the more it will get distributed to the SiteHoppers)
Zedomax Network, a Web2.0 Web 2.5 company based out of San Francisco, breaks through 16K unique visitors for the day on January 11th, 2008, one day right after the founder Max’s birthday.
Thanks to their new site, SiteHoppin’, which brought more than 10K unique visitors for the day, contributing to the Zedomax Network.
Check it out if you want to see our site being revamped live.
On another great note for year 2008 and 4am in the morning, we got a new knol project called http://knolproject.net. Right now, we don’t have anything on there but we are planning to “open-source” the paid wiki concept to let everyone get in the new “paid wiki” wave. Basically, we will teach you how to make a wiki site like the One Buck Wiki or the new Google Knol Project. We are currently accepting any freelance developers to contribute and share ideas for the site so if you are interested in community development, shoot us an email at zedomax [at] gmail.com and you will be included in our exclusive list of developers for the new open source project.
