Hi All,I don't regularly blog about finance topics - they are too complicated and rife with possible pratfalls and mistakes. But....some time ago I came across a site called Wise Bread. The Wise Bread FAQ describes the site 'as a community of bloggers...to help you live large on a small budget.'
Readers can subscribe to Wise Bread, become a fan on Facebook or visit the Wise Bread website.
One of the more impressive sections of the website is the 'Top Personal Finance Blogs' section. What is fairly unique about the site is that they rank personal finance blogs. How do they do this you ask? Excellent question.
The ranking of the 'Top Personal Finance Blogs' is calculated sing six third party measurements that measure a blogger's influence and reach. Issues such as social media influence, link profile and traffic rank are addresed by the Wise Bread 'Wise Score'.
That all being said, essentially the Wise Bread 'Wise Score' ranking can be thought of as 'the percentage of the Personal Finance blogosphere that a particular blog outranks'. Click here for even more information.
So, what are the top 5 personal finance blogs according to Wise Bread? Click on the link and you'll go to the summary page from Wise Bread for the particular personal finance blog.
1. Consumerist
2. Wise Bread (self serving - I'll go to number 6)
3. Money Saving Mom
4. The Krazy Coupon Lady
5. Get Rich Slowly
6. I Will Teach You To Be Rich
Enjoy the sites - hope they are helpful.
