"A study of the WebmasterWorld states that 75% of all blogs on Google's blogspot are spam." Isn't that exaggerated ? I was more surprised with the spam percentage on top doorway domains:
- blogspot.com 77%
- netscape.com 74%
- hometown.aol.com 84%
- hometown.aol.de 91%
- oas.org 78%
- xoomer.alice.it 77%
- home.aol.com 95%
- freewebs.com 52%
- blogstudio.com 99%
- maxpages.com 81%
- usaid.gov 85%
- blogsharing.com 93%
- sitegr.com 100%
- torospace.com 95%
- blog.hix.com 100%
That's 85% for usaid.gov ?! Welcome to the world ! Anyway I don't agree at all with the technique used to detect splogs :
The researchers scanned 1000 most searched queries: 'phentermine' on blogspot.com and the query 'ringtone' on hometown.aol.com[...]
Who is wasting his time blogging about phentermine or ringtones beside spammers ?! It's somehow obvious to get such results, I think the results should be even much higher.
