Re-entering the UK chart is my friend Ben Kay’s blog If This Is A Blog Then What’s Christmas. If you read Scamp then you should read Ben, as his blog is basically similar to mine, but a bit better.
For those new to this quarterly-published chart, I might just re-cap that it’s drawn from the rankings of web metrics company Alexa, who measure visits by users who have the Alexa toolbar installed. Since that means mostly bloggers and techies, the chart is somewhat biased towards blogs which are popular with other bloggers, or tech-heads.
Some people say the chart is extremely boring, others say it helps them discover new blogs to read. I just like charts. I also like maps, and statistics. Come on, there are worse hobbies to have, aren’t there? Some people collect turtles.
An ↑ means a blog's traffic has gone up by 15% or more in the last quarter, and a ↓ means it's gone down 15%.
UK means UK-based. Ad blog means ad blogs not marketing or PR blogs. I would love to be able to include Dave Trott’s brilliant blog, but there isn’t a way to count its visitors separately from those visiting the website of Dave’s agency, CST.
I'm only counting English language blogs.
If I've missed anyone out who should be here, please tell me and I'll put them in next time.

UK Ad Blogs. 1 down to 2. Slippery slope.
Big of you to admit IfThisIsABlog is better than yours.
Not necessarily the truth but hats off to you for niceness.
As you say, I don't think this is a true reflection, but thank you all the same.
But hang on.
Even though I'm not saying it's necessarily true, I'm not saying it ain't. I'm not saying anything. I'm just saying 'nice'.
There's also my new ad blog - www.robertho.com/addict
It's still a work in progress though....
"I just like charts. Oh just charts really. Irrespective of my position on them."
Don't worry about Gordon's little dig, folks. He's my friend really. And with an Alexa ranking of 1.16 million, he's close to getting into the UK chart himself. Gordon writes a very cool and crazy blog, whose traffic is increasing rapidly, and looks set to continue rising, especially if he keeps giving his posts titles like "Kate Moss and the world's most famous vagina", or "Bukkake!"
Ifthisisablog... may not be better than Scamp, but Arsenal are definitely better than Man City. Tee hee hee.
That robertho one whoops the pair of you. Boy is it astounding. Hooo-weeeeeee.
IT. IS. A. KILLER.
So so good.
Yeah, this is all well and good, but nobody's seen this one...

22 and 2 I'm impressed. Obviously this ranking is outrageously flawed, I mean like, "Minds For Rent" is somehow not even on it!
