The Top WordPress Related Blogs On The Internet [WPMU 100, 2nd Edition]

Note: a much-improved third edition of this resource is now available — you can find it here.

It’s been nearly four months since the first WPMU 100 was released, and a lot has changed in the blogosphere since then.

I know this because I have spent the time between then and now trawling the web in an attempt to find every single quality WordPress related blog out there. The end result is a generous selection of new entries.

There are in fact no less than 28 new blogs on the list – plenty for you to be getting your teeth into, even if you thought you already knew of every single WordPress blog that was worth knowing. This huge influx of fresh entries means that there has been a lot of movement – with only 3 blogs retaining their position from the 1st edition.

I’m sure you’re keen to get stuck in, so without further ado, here is the list!

That’s It!

There’s a lot to get through in the above list, but don’t let the rankings fool you – some of those blogs down the bottom are fantastic resources. In fact, there were a couple of blogs I really like that didn’t even make it onto the list.

Remember – this list was picked in part by you. Many of the new entries were suggestions made by WPMU readers. As always I would love your feedback on the list. So what do you think - any diamonds in the rough? Glaring omissions? Undeserved inclusions? Let the debate begin!

  4. Ooo cool, I wanna see how many places they’ve moved up or down too!

    Descriptive taglines would be immense too.

    We could *even* include thumbnails (we use thumbshots for edublogs, maybe talk to Ronnie?)

  6. I like the list a lot. Could you please change WordPress Jedi to WPJEDI :D As Ruth mentioned, the site should not be promoted as that (WordPress in its name) :) Besides, it’s WPJEDI.com anyway :)
