Frequently Asked Questions

1. My blog isn't listed. How can I add my blog to the top 100 list? How can I update my blog's details?

Email tips@wisebread.com with your corrections. We try to update the information as soon as possible, but it may take up to a week. We will let you know when your blog's entry has been updated.

2. What blogs qualify for this list?

We'll add any blog that talks about personal money issues most of the time. And is not spam. You can be a problogger writing money tips articles or you can be sharing about your own debt reduction journey. As long as your blog is mostly about personal finance, we'll add you to the list. Unless you're spam. We have the final say on what is spam.

3. Why does my feed subscribers say "n/a"?

The Feedburner subscribers numbers can only be pulled from Feedburner if:

  1. You have burned a Feedburner feed of your blog, and
  2. you have enabled the Awareness API for your blog's Feedburner feed.

You can burn a new feed (create a Feedburner feed) at http://feedburner.com.

4. My blog's Technorati / PageRank / Alexa / Feedburner / Compete stats are wrong or out-of-date. How can I fix it?

Stats are cached, so you may see a slight delay in updates if your stats have changed recently. This measure is to comply with the various APIs we have to query to get your stats. Stats are usually updated within a few days.

If your stats have been out of whack for more than a couple of weeks, email us at tips@wisebread.com and we'll try to get to the bottom of it.

5. What's with the "n/a" stats?

Feedburner - If the blog does not have a Feedburner feed and/or the public access to the Awareness API stats has been disabled, it will be shown as "n/a".

Alexa, Compete - Stats like Alexa and Compete don't provide accurate ranks for blogs based on sub-domains. For example, every Blogger blog (myblog.blogspot.com) has the same Alexa rank of the parent domain (blogspot.com).
