List of Top 100 Blogs in Nigeria

Posted by: Darlinton Omeh on Tuesday, November 12, 2013 Category: Blogging Tutorial | Entrepreneurs

Blogging in Nigeria has taken a different dimension in recent years; giving people platforms to air their views in any matter as well as creating solid business for smart entrepreneurs. While some Nigerian bloggers are still struggling to hit the golden jackpot, others are currently enjoying the dot com lifestyle and all the glamor that comes with it.

This list of top 100 blogs in Nigeria is the most complete and the most accurate list you can get anywhere. In coming up with this ranking, we used Alexa as our major metric but since Alexa ranking can change anytime, we included other factors such as the revenue potential and the blog's influence to it's readers. 

Currently there is no proper distinction between most Nigerian Blogs and Nigerian news websites. It is rather unfortunate that the Nigeria's blogsphare are being dominated by news curators in place of true bloggers. Until true bloggers begin to emerge, the entertainment and news copy and paste guys will still be considered as bloggers. But when the true bloggers begins to take their place (which I hope soon) these mediocrity will be done away with.

Congratulation if your blog made it to the list and not to worry if yours didn't make it. Put more effort and it's just a matter of time before your blog starts enjoying the wonderful recognition it deserves.
