  Any way to tell where I rank on WordPress.com? I want to see how much I suck.

  I know, but if I’m not listed, then what? Nothing for me?

  Then you’re not in the top hundred. That’s all. Even I’ve only been in there a couple of times.

  Check Technorati to see your blog ranking. I don’t think it can do relative rankings for all WordPress, but you can plug in a couple of other WordPress blogs and get a sense of where you are relative to them.

  Oh, no, I meant in the narrow scheme of things, just wordpress blogs. There’s stats for all sorts of things: http://wordpress.com/stats/ so I was wondering if I could get more personal stats for my own blog, within wordpress.com

  That’s why I didn’t suggest Technorati. I was thinking of them as well though.

  @samureye
  …

  Humour: As your blog which was commenced in October contains only 9 posts forgive me for feeling somewhat entertained by your interest in statistical data pertaining to it … lol :D

  Aside from the “blog stats” widget there are free stats counters available online and this FAQs thread will direct you to them http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/07/28/can-i-have-a-statcounter-on-my-blog/

  Thanks for your url ;)

  Sheesh … and here I thinking you were concerned about the stats for this one http://samureye.wordpress.com.

  But, in any event, you can get a stat counter for both blogs free of charge if you like … lol :D

  I know, I’ve used statcounter and sitemeter in the past, but it’s sort of a hassle in that since I can’t access the code of the templates unless I am paying I am not sure what I can and cannot use with sidebar widgets so I make do with WordPress’ internat stats system, I like it a lot in fact, and wish custom WordPress installs had that sort of stat tracking. I installed wordpress on my own but didn’t see it, so that’s one way to get customers :p

  And I thought I deleted that other blog… hmmm…

  It’s HTML. You use the backticks when you want the HTML code to actually display so we can see teh coding.

  Fixed – drmike

  PS: @samureye your blog has not been updated at Technorati in 181 days.

  Something is set up wrong there.

  Write to (email visible only to moderators and staff) and tell them. It will get fixed in time. They are incredibly busy over there.
