Ranking made by Wikio


Plenty of movers & shakers this month but the first thing I noticed was BrewDog's absence from the rankings, I have no idea whether this is deliberate omission or not. They were usually hovering around the top spot & I had heard rumblings from other bloggers that they felt BrewDog's blog is an advertorial & doesn't belong in the rankings, so maybe Wikio have addressed this but I'm not sure.

I am delighted with how my blog rose 31 places to 15th in the rankings but I believe this may be a temporary effect of the huge interest my post regarding Kevin created.

Congratulations to Mark from Pencil & Spoon for taking top spot this month I particularly enjoyed his BrewDog post recently.

Also a mention for Andy from Beer Reviews which climbed to the lofty position of 3rd! Well done Andy!

And a mention for Leigh at The Good Stuff, for sticking around the top 20 for his informative & enjoyable musings on a wide range of beers wherever he may find them, Leigh's blog is Leeds longest running beer blog & it's nice to see his dedication paying off.

So there you have it, BrewDog gone from the rankings, do you agree or disagree?

***UPDATE***
Apparently BrewDog are still in the general rankings, they are 341st in the overall blog ranking system out of over 18 & a half thousand blogs, but have disappeared from the wine & beer category for some strange reason.
