Perez Hilton Most-Searched Blog on Lycos

Posted on December 15, 2006

Lycos has announced that Perez Hilton's blog was the most-searched blog on Lycos in 2006. Perez Hilton is also being pursued by angry photo agencies who accuse him of constantly stealing their photos. Perez had 91% more searches the second-most searched for blog, the Huffington Post. Other top searched blogs included TMZ, Pink is the New Blog and PostSecret.

And from the blogosphere, Perez Hilton is the most-searched blog site of 2006, generating 91 percent more search interest than the second most popular blog site with web searchers, Huffington Post. While Huffington Post provides news and opinions, three of the top five most-searched blog sites this year cater to celebrity gossip news, including Perez Hilton, a.k.a. Mario Armando Lavandeira Jr., TMZ, a.k.a. "Thirty Mile Zone" around Hollywood, and Pink is the New Blog. The fifth most popular blog site in 2006 is PostSecret, an ongoing community art project where people anonymously email their secrets on postcards.

You can see the entire Lycos 50 here. The Lycos 50 also has a blog but it could use some new posts -- the last post was in October.
