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.

Tax Season 2026 Continues!

We made it. Tax Day 2025 is finally over. For most of us. When the filing season started on Jan. 26, millions who were expecting refunds filed immediately. Most of us got our returns to the Internal Revenue Service by April 15. But plenty of taxpayers also got extensions. They are looking at an Oct. 15 filing deadline.

Those procrastinating filers aren’t a problem. In fact, the IRS appreciates taxpayers who take time to fill out their 1040 forms correctly. It also is grateful that tax submissions are spread out a bit, especially now that the IRS is a leaner agency. Processing returns is easier when they arrive throughout the year instead of in massive bunches.

But enough about Uncle Sam’s tax collection issues. The focus now is on all y’all who filed for extensions, giving you another six months to complete your return. Since your new mid-October due date will be here before you know it, let’s get started now on meeting it.

The ol’ blog is here to help you finish up your extended Form 1040. You can start with January’s tax tips page, which has links to the rest of the year’s tips by-month collections. You also can peruse various tax categories for more tailored advice by clicking on the More Tax Posts drop-down menu at the top of this (and every) page.

And to make sure you don’t miss your new filing deadline, the count-down clock below will let you know just how much time you to file by Oct. 15. At the latest.e. (Note: I’m in the Central Time Zone, so adjust accordingly for where you live.)
