Subject: Re: Question about top 100 music podcasts Posted: Fri Apr 18 13:27:12 -0700 2008 Rankings are currently based solely on uniques and subscribers. We basically just add the two numbers and sort by that "score". In the near future, rankings will change dramatically because we will be excluding hits from automated systems (web crawlers, spiders, etc), so podcasts getting many crawler hits but few human hits (people using browsers, iTunes, etc) will drop in the rankings and podcasts getting many people but few search engines will rise.

Subject: Re: Question about top 100 music podcasts Posted: Sun Apr 20 11:32:50 -0700 2008 "uniques" meaning "unique visitors". Thus, if you and a thousand of your buddies "visit" your page daily AND subscribe to it, you may well get high in the daily ratings but much lower in the overall ratings - overlap being discounted. I don't know how to manage my automated visits, nor even how to discover what those numbers are or how mine compare to everyone else's. Will my ratings change significantly? My audience will not, and that's what really matters to me.
