Problogging.com has sold the Blog Herald to an undisclosed buyer. I used to read it every day when it was edited and partly written by its founder, Duncan Riley, but then it had a really strong voice. It was first with the blog news, and full of rather crude opinions, and I couldn’t help reading it. Under new ownership, it just seemed to lose its personality. I just don’t think that blogs sell well. But despite that, it still claims 20,000 unique visitors a day, and a million unique pageviews a month.
