Hi Barb,

Weighted according to what we call the "5 Cs" -- more information about that on our PostRank site.

Any additional questions, let me know.

Very basic question--

Step #3 = "weighted each engagement type for level of engagement."

Weighted HOW--what constitutes the deepest/highest-value level of engagement? A click or a tag is less work than a comment, I assume, but I'd be very interested in seeing the rank-order listing of engagement types.

Sounds great - and well done to Chris for being #1. Well deserved

I'd love to see what kind of engagement score we'd get on the Skin MD natural feeds.

Hi Marji,

Those more passive interactions (clicking, reading, etc.) go in the "Clicking" category of our 5Cs of analysis. We try to do our best to record all interactions, even if they aren't the more public or visibly interactive.

This is great for activities in which the reader does something. But what about all of the folks out there that are just reading the conversations. Sure the bookmarks help -- but lots of people don't know how to use bookmarks yet...

This is a solid engagement measurement - nice work. I'll be looking forward to the release of the API!

This is a very interesting perspective beyond standard metrics. Glad to see Copyblogger hanging on to third. :-)

Karl, we do track Disqus comments. For the API, we don't have a public release date yet. At the moment, we're still gathering user feedback and ideas for how it should look like.

Hence, any tips or ideas, would be much appreciated!

OMG when is this API coming out, I love this measurement concept. BTW does it track http://disqus.com/ comments?

Thanks, Marshall. There were definitely a lot of suggestions and "what ifs?" thrown around internally before we set the parameters of this experiment, but since we wanted to get it out the door before next year, we had to stop somewhere and leave more excitement for the future. :)

Rest assured there'll be much more on this subject from us!

And as for your "cred", had you been on the list, based on the overall engagement for marshallk.com, you'd be... #17. w00t! (Jim was just talking about how in the future we'll have to run stats and show who should make the list.)

This is an interesting list and a great exercise in social media marketing as well! If you displayed those bloggers' names as text instead of in an image they would show up in ego searches and be clickable though. A trackback to their most engaging recent post would also be very effective. What do I know, though, am I on that list? No! lol, good stuff as always though AideRSS folks!
