What Does “Popularity” mean?

Throughout the blog you will see a popularity rating for each post. This number represents the activity on the blog and calculates a percentage for each post and page.

The popularity display you see:

Ex. Popularity: 27% [?]

is the rank of that post or page compared to the other posts and pages on the blog.

Since page views, comments, linkbacks, etc. are cumulative, newer posts will generally have lower popularity values than older posts. This, of course, evens out over time.

Popularity: 3% [?]
