Does the language you speak or use help influence how well your site places on Technorati or for your Technorati profile?
English is only the primary language for about 5 percent (340 million) of the world's people. Another 200 million, or 3 percent, are reasonably fluent in English, and perhaps up to another 500 million (8 percent) know some English.
The number of French and German speakers are each probably less than 3 percent of the world's population. Yet, those who speak English or other Germanic languages account for more than 40 percent of the world GDP, while comprising only about 8 percent of the world's population.
The rankings of the other major languages are as follows (both primary and secondary speakers): Mandarin Chinese 1.1 billion; Hindi 490 million; Spanish 420 million; Arabic 255 million, and Russian also with 255 million.
Now, back to the basic question: Does the language you speak or use help influence how well your site places on Technorati or for your Technorati profile?
I say that it does; the "net o sphere" is not fair for all rather it is a free for all and with broadband usage increasing in what was regarded as third world countries which are now developing nations where the internet is taking control of community based sites. Technorati will have to deal with this phenonmen the words we use may also help determine how much influence we have.
