What’s your blog worth?

2008-10-08 Update: I removed this feature because it doesn’t work right as the comment count increases… I’ll have to change the math behind it some time.

I’ve added a value metric in the sidebar of every blog! Also, there are stats on the average number of words per post, number of tags and categories, and the number of threaded comments and pingbacks.

My blog is worth $829,191. This development blog is worth $7189. Daytona State College News is valued at $2440. VicAndHelen.com is a measly $15. My mom’s blog is worth $1270, while my cousin’s is just $73. A new blog is worth $1.

What’s your blog worth? Check your sidebar now. If you haven’t posted in a couple months, you’ll have to make a new post or re-save an old one for the stats to be right.

How are these stats calculated? By multiplying the blog’s word count by the tangent of the number of comments in degrees plus 0.1 times the number of spam comments, all divided by the cosine of the number of threaded comments in degrees, then flipped to positive if negative, of course!

Enjoy, and keep blogging away.
