• These Law Prof Blog Rankings are drawn from Dan Solove's Law Professor Blogger Census, as updated by Colin Miller's Legal Educator Blog Census.  They include all blogs edited by law professors -- both law-related and non law-related.
• Please email me the names of any Law Prof Blogs with traffic over the past twelve months that would qualify for inclusion on the lists (204,466 page views and/or 143,208 visitors).  If necessary, I will re-publish the list to include all qualifying blogs.
• Several popular Law Prof Blogs do not have publicly available SiteMeters and thus are not included on the list:  e.g., California Appellate Report, Credit Slips, The Deal Professor, Dorf on Law, Feminist Law Professors, InstaPundit, Legal Theory, Point of Law, Volokh Conspiracy. 
• These rankings cover only those blogs edited by law professors.  Other law-related blogs edited by practitioners, librarians, non-law school academics, and journalists are not included on this list:  e.g., Above the Law, How Appealing, Law Librarian Blog, Wall Street Journal Law Blog.
• Members of our Law Professor Blogs Network comprise, by both page views and visitors, two of the Top 10, three of the Top 25, and nine of the Top 35 blogs.
