To trace a blog that you want to compare your own blog’s performance against, you need to make some selections. Here we explain how it can be done, nice and easy.

Show me the list of blogs under this category so I can choose which ones I want in my portfolio

The screenshot to the right shows you how you can start adding other blogs to be tracked by ComMetrics.com First you may want to select a category (see to the right) and this will, in turn, result in a list of blogs been shown to you.

Please use the category that describes your blog best. Context is important, meaning it makes most sense to compare apples with apples only.

list of blogs entered in database - choose what you wish to compare yourself against

Please provide the following information

URL (with http://): provide a valid URL link for the blog – not just the webpage

Owner: First Name, Middle Initial and Last Name if a person such as Urs E. Gattiker – otherwise, Dell Inc., or Coca-Cola Inc., Smart Blogger Pty Ltd, WebVirtual LLC etc.

Category: choose a category that is most appropriate, check the blog’s description and the last 10 listings to get a feel – yes you might post things addressing business, private live and mountain hiking but here choose the one that you post about the most,

Country: self-explanatory, see domain used, such as co.uk or look under Contact or the blogger’s LinkedIn account

Again, please provide accurate information so we can search our database and see if we either have this already included or if we need to go right now to start collecting information for you.

When you click on Trace this blog you should get this screen:
