I came across Blog Catalog this morning and so far I like it. Spending too much of my day off on here. What other sites would you recommend that are like this? Does this one get the most traffic?
Thanks,

Why would anyone spend much of their fay here?
The best blogs are written by people who have a life.-
Unless you blog about blogging -
a blog about blogging blogs in the blogsfere... -
Absolutely. especially when you repost the same topic posted by other bloggers. Then you have to be on constant lookout for new topics to imitate.
-
-
This is the best place. Welcome -
Nope. No other place.
Still, there are other places to list your blogs, including MyBlogLog and BumpZee. -
Lots of other places
www.blogdumps.com
www.mybloglog.com
www.blogcave.com
www.problogs.com
www.blogsrecord.com
The communities vary wherever you go.-
wow,never knew that many sites like this. -
Mybloglog is not a good site for me. It gathers no readers and no momentum for a proper exposure of any blogs. -
I can say the same. I don't believe I have ever received a visitor via myblolog and I keep pretty close tabs on my referrers.
-
Don't blame Mybloglog it is us-offline -
Thanks!!
-
-
BlogCatalog and MyBlogLog seem to be the most popular
that I've seen. -
Joining new communities is great as you can get to know the site owners and original crew and be part of the whole process of development, before it gets too big to be personal.
-
There are a lot of other forum groupings to get into. But, when the best, most thorough and thoughtful mental probings occur right here, why bother?-
you're joking right?
I post on science forums, there is no comparison. You can't get away with diddly squat or they tear you apart. It's FANTASTICCCCCCC. I find intelligence such a turn on.

If there is, I haven't seen it. This place (and its admin) are great! -
This does happen to be a fun, if slightly unbalanced, group of people. I come here on a daily basis to harass, I mean, discuss topics of varying seriousness, from blogging advice and help to baking soda. Yes, there is a thread about baking soda. Check it out. -
i have created somewhat related article on my blog: earnmoneylive.blogspot.com

wrong spot

There are no other directories /social networks with blogging forums that are exactly like BC. Here are links to some that are similar:
Fuel My Blog www.fuelmyblog.com
Blogher www.blogher.com
My Blog Log www.mybloglog.com
Here are links to bloggers' forums that IMO are worth visiting several times to assess whether or not you'd like to join them.

Your welcome

******** A WARNING *********
The service "bloggst" is completely overrun with spam mostly of the shoe-marketing kind. Nearly every category on the forum is filled with the same postings. There is no actual discussion in any recent threads I could find, even going back 50 pages of thread titles in some of the categories.
Almost none of threads have any response, and the ones that do have replies that are just more of the same spam!!!!!
There may not be ANY human management or moderation of this site going on now. I emailed a complaint about the spam and got not reply. I have now emailed to have my account removed. (Yes, I should have read more of the forum before joining, but its general setup looked very good.)

I like PoliticalBase.com and Hubpages.com-
Thanks for the good inclusions. I like hubages too and I'm embarrassed I forgot to include the url above.
-
Huppages is great you can even make money
hubpages.com/_hubpagesblog/hub/Adsense-Earnings-day-by-day -
Hub pages..
I try them - they insist on classifying my blog again and again among a few non-matches! -
Hubpages forum is seriously active! I am so surprised. Their interface isn't as smooth as BC's, but they are a lot more active than BC's general discussion board at the moment.
-
update: I've had it with them. their patronizing error message is the last straw:
This hub contains very little content, and cannot be published. If you wish to add content later, please click the save unpublished or done editing button. -
And the least they can do is say exactly how much content they want! But I suspect the real problem is somewhere else (it's buggy!)
-
What is your hubpages id? I will check out your hubs.
-
its refusing to publish my blog.. i think the id is either crazyTsu or hubpages.com/hub/A-Sons-Diary
I wrote to them and congratulated them for having a computer program intelligent enough to reject my blog -
One more annoyance:
crazyTsu joined the Christianity fan club.
This is not my kind of site.. no sireeeee -
I don't understand why it got deleted. Hub pages is a blogging site but not a blog directory. Did you try and create a hub that was just a link to your site? Because that is not what a hub is. A hub is supposed to be an actual article.
I submitted an article to Hub and while it got flagged as being duplicated from my blog, they didn't have any issue with publishing it.
If all you did was create a link to your blog, you are not understanding the purpose of the site. -
The other part of it may be that your blog seems to be a lot of rambling about your personal thoughts (please don't take offense. You blog is fine, after all it's YOUR blog) but none of your posts seem to have any actual topics. Which may be why Hub is having a hard time finding categories to fit you or telling you mean things like "lack of content."
-
Ya, I employed RSS and drew the content into their site
And reg my rambling, yes, and I believe I have full right to ramble. If I dont fit in their rigid sense of categories the problem is not mine
Anyway.. if writing a post for them would cure their ills I might try it sometime -
Hey, that wasn't meant to be insulting. You have the right to put whatever you want on your blog.
-
No problem there .. I understand what you said!
-
-
I really enjoy Hubpages a lot. Great forum activity, easy money, and fantastic writers.
-
Check it for yourself hubpages.com/forum/ if you've never been there. I'm sure you will enjoy.

I still think Twitter is one of the best tools for exposures. When I open people's twitter pages, I always look at their links, normally their blog urls. Now there's twibes.com where u can form a twibe for people with similar interests. Check out my group info: www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/entry/micro-blog-sharing Enjoy guys.-
Yes Indeed, Twitter is one of the most effective tools of gaining exposure.But, blogging has a special vintage place.I feel more comfortable with Blogging.Its a better medium of communication about a particular niche. Thats my opinion though, don't know what others think.

There's nothing better than Blogcatalog.
Blogcatalog rocks.
The funnest, coolest people in the universe are here.-
Nothing special. Just love the discussion here.
-
Hey there,
I'm Terry and I'm interning at BlogCatalog for the summer. I just wanted to say Thanks for showing BlogCatalog some love! BC Admin really do try hard to make BlogCatalog the best it can be. We love the vibrant community here too! It is what makes BlogCatalog different from any other website -
Thank you - I know its me you are referring to!
-
Those losers at hub pages don't know what they are missing
-
-
According to the best of my knowledge:
BC is the Best Community of bloggers. -
Checked out all those other social network/directories links. The formats all suck and don't feel welcoming at all. BC is the best by far, in my opinion. -
Digitalpoint Forums and Hubpages are the sites which I love the most -
I just joined mybloglog but I don't like it as much as blog catalog. So far, blog catalog is my favorite. -
I love BC - started off on mybloglog and got next to nothing from it. I love the debates that get sparked, the opinions that are shared and the random tidbits we all come up with.
welcome to the neighborhood! -
Blogcatalog is the top of the line. -
This is good for sharing... -
It is the best place that has more traffic and genuine traffic . Many have been coming here looking for information. all those that are looking for information they get the info within a short period of time
-
thanks for info timethief, I wonder, are you the admin of blogcatalog -
only blogcatalog and mybloglog are good enough to drive more traffic to your blog
