BSE's been partnered IceRocket.com for the past 9 months. Who knew? Guess that's where Blake found my blog...(note: nope, BSE apparently uses IceRocket's info. see the comment from Blake)
When I first started blogging, I registered with Blog Search Engine thinking it was something that actually searched blogs. Hey, I'm no tech-junkie, so I had no clue it was simply an index of blogs and it wouldn't really search them like Google and IceRocket do.
And I never really got any hits off it, as my blogs are buried so far down under the lists that you just can't find me!
So, I was kind of glad to read that little clarification about Blog Search Engine and all the *other* blog search engines.
Man! this is getting confusing!

Tish-
BSE uses our results. We found your blog on our own :)

Thanks for the clarification, B! The BSE story was a little vague as to which of y'all came first.
and I still can't get over y'all found me on your own!
BSE does do some indexing - in the last few days my hits have tripled, most coming in from BSE. There's nothing like using the word "bondage" in a post title to draw traffic ....
FWIW, I think some of the listing differences are tied to whether you have your own domain or are using a service like Blogger. I come up as the first listing on over a dozen search phrases on Google, Yahoo and MSN, some of them being very popular topics. Go figger.
T...I always wonder if it's the viccitudes of search engines or not. I haven't seen squat from BSE, but my other blog gets alot of hits from the Big 3 you mentioned. Helps to have "sex" in the title ;-)
Today I got a bunch of hits from Technorati because I covered TimesSearch (albeit critically)...
It all depends on if you hit the Magic Search Engine Word of the Day I guess
Just checked my stats again...this particular blog gets a bunch of hits from IceRocket searches too....the Technorati ones are really making me giggle today...I think this is the first day I've got hits from Technorati searches.
