Top 100 Travel Blog Requirements
For you blog to start being tracked for consideration as a Top 100 Travel Site you need the following minimum scores in ALL 3 categories: (please NOT 1 of 3, 2 of 3) ONLY 3 of 3
Domain Authority: A score of at least 42 or higher. (please inform me of your score by email)
Page Authority: A score of 52 or higher. (please inform me of your score by email)
Alexa: A score of less than 200,000 (please inform me of your score by email)
*please note: obtaining these 3 min scores qualifies your blog to be tracked but it will take something better than these results to break into the top 100*
*your Alexa score can be found by going to the Alexa Homepage and entering your travel blog url.*
*your Domain Authority & Page Authority can be found by installing the SEOmoz toolbar.
Finally this list is for independent travel blogs that are single author or couples blogs ONLY. The purpose of this list is to track travel blogs and the personalities behind them.***
Please send me an email if you meet the above criteria with your Domain Authority, Page Authority, MozRank and Alexa scores:

*** I have included Travel Dudes, which some might claim as a multiple author site on the list. I’ve done this because the dude behind the site is Melvin Boecher and he’s very much the face of the site. In other words, it’s very much personality driven. Moreover, the guest authors on his site are generally travel bloggers & he goes to great lengths to promote their materials (on both his site and on the blogger’s personal site).

Wow! I didn’t even know there was a list – looks good. I’ve been travel blogging for almost 6 years and have written over 1,000 articles, hoping I can get on this someday!! Jonny (http://dontstopliving.net)
Interesting, I’ve been up and down on Compete while my main traffic comes from all over Southeast Asia as I am area-specific. I do about 250-300k pvs a month but seems I need to improve the compete rankings..ugh. Will try I guess.

I’m an experienced travel writer but new to the world of blogging, so still have a while to go before I meet your criteria. I’ve enjoyed taking a look at your site and have found it very helpful and interesting. I’ll be back, as that famous Austrian once said.
