Top 100 PF Blogs

September 6, 2007

Personal finance bloggers live and die by numbers. What’s your mortgage interest rate? How much do you owe credit card companies? Is there a legal way to cut my taxes even more?

So it’s not surprising that we all like to look at numbers that tell us how we’re doing compared to our fellow PF bloggers. Thanks to FIRE Finance, that’s now a little easier.

Top100pfblogs Curious about the popularity of personal finance blogs, FIRE came up with a list of the Top 100 Personal Finance Blogs based on their monthly traffic and page ranks. He used data from Quantcast, SiteMeter and Compete.

Now while many will point to Mark Twain’s famous comment about "lies, damn lies and statistics," in a world where quantification is everything, we do the best with what we’ve got. And I am pleased to report that Don’t Mess With Taxes made it into the top 20 of both Quantcast’s and SiteMeter’s rankings. Compete doesn’t count the ol’ blog because it doesn’t generate data for sites on a public domain, such as TypePad.

But I’ll gladly take 19th on Quantcast and 18th on SiteMeter. And thanks, FIRE, for the effort.

Hello Tax Season 2026

Happy New Tax Year! Are you ready to file your 2025 tax return? I know, too early to ask. But Tax Day 2026 will be here before we realize it. The Internal Revenue Service deadline to file and pay any tax we owe is the regular April 15 date this year. It’s also Tax Day for most of the states that collect income taxes from their residents, which is most of the states! If that seems too far away right now, don’t worry. As is the case every tax season, the ol’ blog’s tips and other tax reminders should help all of us meet our state and federal responsibilities. Procrastinators also will want to keep an eye on the countdown clock just below. It tracks how much time we have until April’s Tax Day, just in case we put off our annual tax task until the absolutely final hours and decide we need to instead get an extension request into the IRS by that date. (Note: I’m in the Central Time Zone, so adjust accordingly for where you live.)
