uISV Class '07 January Grades

Well its a new year and a new month. Here's last months results for a reference point. I noticed that WebSiteGrader has gone through a major overhaul. I'll need to dig into it to see what the changes are, but that's another post. Here is how we are all doing:

Site	Score	Page Rank
chatspring.com (was steplively.com)	45	0
www.thinklife.co.uk/	64	3
joelmarcey.com	78	4
www.smallfarmcentral.com/	81	4
www.sportavista.com/	N/A	N/A
www.sendalong.com/	33	0
catchthebest.com	87	5
www.heliumfoot.com/	72	0
http://www.lokad.com/	98	4
twistedwave.com	79	5
www.omnicustomersupport.com/	59	0
www.webworkschedules.com/	38	0
www.sixproducts.com/	47	0

Wow. Great improvements across the board. I'm not sure if the underlying scoring algorithm change along with the UI to WebSiteGrader. Its hard to tell. I did not see any discussion on their blog. If anyone knows the details, please let me know.

Lokad is nearing perfection with a slight improvement to 98! But I think the bigger news is Keith Alperin of Helium Foot moving up 33 points to a 72 and Joel Marcy moving up 30 points to 78. Huge improvements. Congratulations to both of you. If either of you (or anyone else on the list) made any changes in the last month that helped improved your score, please let the rest of us know so we can try to do the same. The average improvement was 16.5 points so we are doing some things right. The other possibility is that more people with bad sites are using WebSiteGrader which is making us look better by comparison.

All and all I think we are off to a good start in 2008. I'll run the scores again next month.
