*Kissing Suzy Kolber is hosted at kissmesuzy.blogspot.com and Kissingsuzykolber.net. Most of their traffic goes to the blogspot address so we used that address for stats. The same is true for Awful Announcing.  Mgoblog is only at Mgoblog.blogspot.com

Honorable mention goes to Larry Brown Sports (16,303 uniques), and Mister Irrelevant (15,654 uniques).  New sites added this month are The Offside, Brahsome, and Cuzoogle.  Busted Coverage has been removed from the list due to too much tail and not enough sports.

It’s interesting to see that all the major blogs had huge jumps in traffic from April’s Top 25 Sports Blogs.  Not too sure why that is.  I wonder if anyone has some thoughts on that.

As always the list is put together using Compete.com’s measurement statistics of unique visitors for the month.  Keep in mind that these numbers aren’t necessarily accurate but Compete.com does a great job comparing one site to another making the rankings accurate.  Alexa is used to rank sites that are not tracked by Compete.  If you think your site should be on the list send it to info{a}sportstechnow.com and we will check it out and consider it for next month.

    How about the top 25 fantasy sports sites. Their traffic crushes the blogs.

    I wanna suggest Blogging Baseball for the top 25. All MLB, All the Time, this is the 3rd season for Blogging Baseball who held with Jimmy Rollins last season that the Phils were the team to beat and this year holds likewise plus that the Phils WILL win 100 games.

    Hmmm. Not sure about Compete.com, as I use google analytics. Nepatriotsdraft.com had 29,600 unique visitors in May and 35,500 in April.

    Mark,

    It looks like you have sime work to do. Your Compete number is only 1,115.

    James,

    I don’t have access to everyoones Google Analytics number so Compete is what I have to go by for rankings. Keep in mind that everyone on this list has a higher Google Analytics number.
