David Sifry (Technorati.com Inhaber):
- Technorati is tracking about 900,000 blog posts created every day
- That’s about 10.4 blog posts per second, on average
- Median time from posting to inclusion in the Technorati index is under 5 minutes
- Significant increases in posting volume are due to increased mainstream use of easy hosted tools as well as simple posting interfaces like post-from-IM and moblogging tools
- Weekends tend to be slower posting days by about 5-10% of the weekly averages
- During the day, posting tends to peak between the hours of 7AM and noon Pacific time (10AM – 3PM Eastern time)
- Worldwide news events cause ripples through the blogosphere – not only in search volume, but also in posting volume
