Yuvi does another one of his great analysis of linking patterns on blogs. This time he’s looked into TechCrunch. Found that 1/3rd of all links on TechCrunch are back to TechCrunch itself! Heheh, I do the same thing. 1/3rd of all my links are to my link blog. Why? Cause that’s where the good stuff is.

[...] (via Scoble) Haven’t had much time to parse this yet, but Yuvi did a great analysis of TechCrunch. [...]

Turns out for the past 4 months, since CrunchBase launched, *half* of all links are back to themselves.
Thanks for the link scoble! Still amazes me, how I spent hours for Digg Analysis and yet it got no links. I think being brief is better.

And still linking that much to your linkblog? I don’t think so. Come December and we’ll see :)

Yes, that’s where the good stuff is, but it’s also a well known trick to increase the pageviews, very important for those like TechCrunch who make money through their blog.
