Welcome to the second TotallyMoney Top Blog Awards! Every month we delve into stats from our Top Finance Blogs List to unearth the best blogging talent. This month’s blog awards coincide with the launch of our brand new graphs and features for members of the TotallyMoney Top Finance Blogs List. Bloggers featured in the list can now see how your TM Score, Social Score, Blog Score, Site Score, Traffic Score and Alexa Rank are faring over time, compare your performance against specific blogs and identify exactly where your blog is excelling and what’s holding it back.
If you’ve got two minutes, pour yourself a cup of tea, sign into your dashboard and go and take a look at the new features. As ever we’d love to hear your thoughts about them!
