Excellent sorting procedure. I found was often serching for relevant summaries, but didn't have a concrete procedure for rooting out spam,scams, etc.

Really userfull tips, I agree with you at all, I think that the "by admins" is a big issue that Google have to remove.

Look at that. I put my reputation on the line without proofreading and realized I used "there" instead of "their". Whoops!

I have to agree with Mike, Jim. You can not automatically discount writings done under a pseudonym, but someone who is willing to put there real name as the author is putting their reputation at stake. The difference is commitment.
One trick I have learned to limit the amount of time I spend looking for other posts is to only look on the first two pages. You have to draw the line somewhere, right?

For the most part, I agree with your tips. However, there are exceptions out there, such as YouGrowGirl, TheHomeKnowItAll and others. These are business blogs that provide information and interaction with bloggers.

This is a great tip thanks! I usually try to find the thought leaders within blogging communities - for e.g. marketing bloggers, technology bloggers, photography bloggers etc. The only downside is that you need to know who the thought leaders are first :)

Great tips for browsing those pages of search results! Now if we could just get Goggle to eliminate the "by admins" and what-not, or at least de-prioritize them, the world would be easier to navigate!
