Toward content quality oriented Blog ranking

We propose a method for Blog evaluation and ranking, biased toward a Blog's quality of content rather than a Blog's popularity. With an estimate of more than one billion Blogs on the web today, Blog ranking by popularity instead of by quality may be a measure that becomes increasingly irrelevant - especially for Blogs that are not typically found in a ‘top-100’ list. We describe and implement our method, and provide results of our experiments and comparisons with the rankings of one of the premium Blog ranking engines.
