Blog Shares

I empathize with Steve on this issue - I have 40 incoming links according to NZBear's Ecosystem, but just 12 according to Blog Shares - I myself link to a lot of bloggers - way more than the 3 BlogShares thinks I link to. I don't understand how exactly the system works - I had Instapundit links that did nothing to improve my blog's rating and the whole thing just seems like too much of a bother to me. I appreciate the huge amount of work all this probably entails to the people who started this and I think it is a very cool idea, but the execution is extremely poor. Now that they are actually charging money for the premium membership, shouldn't they be at the minimum as accurate as the systems like ecosystem, who do this for free?

Update: Blog Shares not only indexed my test blog, but someone already owns stocks in it .
