Blogarate lets your readers rate individual blog postings on your site, and it shows who the most recent raters were in MyBlogLog-type style. Blograte also gets information from the widget being on your page, which takes the blog post URL, title, author, tags, and the rating of the post and processes them so that bloggers can find it when looking for related posts and news. By getting the ratings posts directly at their site, Blogorate lets you know in detail what is making news in blogs. Currently widgets are available for Wordpress, Community Server, Blogger, and Dasblog, and more are on their way.
“Blogarate.com is a free service that lets readers of your blog rate your blog posts and displays the last 5 readers to rate your post. The widget also sends that blog post data via the magic of Ajax to blogarate.com for processing. The data collected includes blog post Url, title, author, tags and the rating. We process the data and display it for users to find related blog posts and news items.
This is a far more appealing looking widget in terms of ranking, as opposed to competitors coming out now. Being able to see the pictures of the people who have recently rated the post is also a cool feature. They only just started this month, and yet they already have a lot of sponsor support. They combine the rating widget with a news aggregation feature in a way that is unique.
Is the blogging widget and rating area of the internet flooded, and will this impact their site traffic?
