How many sites does your rival has?

How many sites does your rival has?

Well, i don’t think that no blogger has a rival in the real sense of the word, but let’s say in a positive way. You wonder how many sites a certain blogger has…

Well, if you want to have a 100% correct answer, then you can give up right now, because there is no way you can get a 100% certain… If you ask a blogger then it is most probable that he/she cant’ answer you with a right number.

But, there is a way, where you can have a number, that is no where near the right number.

You can use Google analytics to get a number. Let me show you how.

Visit a site that may interest you, and if that site is being monitored by google analytics, then just see the page source code (press F11 if you are using mozilla).

Let’s use my example:

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.us

This code is from one of my mini sites, and if you click the image, you can see a red square around a number: the number 8.

This 8 means, when i created a new profile on google analytics, the associated code generated was the 8th code generated. So at that time, i had 7 other codes to use on 7 different sites.

This way, you can have a slight idea of the number of sites someone has. I say slight, because the webmaster may have created another websites, for example, if you check my G analytics code you will see that i have a 2 for this blog. My number 4 code may not be being used at this time, or i can have other sites being monitored by other service or as it happens on several of my minor sites, i only monitor them trough my cpanel stats.

This is intended just for curiosity purposes and nothing more :)

oh, and btw, there is a lot to learn checking the source code from other bloggers ;)

Yeah, but it only works if you are viewing the last created site of the owner.
