Netnaija blog is underrated
Nairaland is a forum , access by everybody
i must admit your blog very informative .Nice post
Haha, great compilations list. One day, I hope to make this list too.
I think this list should be updated yearly, there are new successful bloggers mentioned.
Everytime they talk about bloggers, this are always the list.
But, this is inspiring though.
I just stumbled on this list, things have changed really fast when this list was made, someone mentioned up there about naijatechguide making the list, that dude has been around for over a decade now, and has been a go-to source for us when it comes to anything tech.
Nice list, but there are some names I expected to be there but did not find…
Still okay though.
I salute all the ideas and contributions of bloggers here, the list is open and you will be add up and i also. Thanks
Thanks
Interesting to see Nigeria most successful blog.
Hard work is the key.
Thank you.
Nice article, the list is indeed complete.

Looks like the way we see blogging in Nigeria isn’t the way whites see it.
Congratulations to these great bloggers who made it to this list. I pray one day and very soon, I will be the number I blogger not just in Nigeria but the world at large. It’ll only take time.
Great people, I will get there someday.

The list was comprehensive but naijaloaded should have been in no 3 or 4.
Nice work.
Beautiful. My name will be here someday
This is a great list, but I don’t know your criteria though, cos I was expecting to see the likes of Jaguda.com, mp3bullet.com, and even 9jaflever.com, those guys are really trying when it comes to the music industry.
Cool
Congrats to all those who made it on the list.
Soon, only soon, I will be there.
I pray that one day I should get to this kind list. However, you have not mention the owner of Naijatechguide.com I think he should also be mention in this list.
I cant believe I read this from the beginning to the end, thanks for clarifying that nairaland’s boss is no blogger. It seems people always confuse a forum platform with a blog.
I’m just watching. I’ll get to the list one day
The ranking need to be updated
Good but try and update your the list… They’re more bloggers at there.
Am sure one day I will make it to top 10
I so much respected this list but I guess time has changed and people has taken over.
in this age and time, we can’t still be mentioning Linda and some others on the list. Just expressing my mind though… No itch
Nice one
They are all doing fine…I hope many of us will take those steps at a time to make it as well to the lime light…good luck budding bloggers!

This is a great list and they are all great people…but I am surprised these same guys has been on the forefront since the beginning of blogging in Nigeria. shows there isn’t much progress in youth.
This is nice, long live all their legacies as we hope for new faces in the industry….

I Am Very Sure That By God Grace My Name Shall Be There.
Nice one..I know I will get there someday..
Congrats to my Naija blogger friends
Sure it’s a great list
Writerincharge by Bamidele is a blog I so much respect. I think most of his readers are sources from abroad. He is a good coach to many who want to learn freelancing. The list is ok. but I guess, we should have it reviewd by now to reflect the current change.
Its a shame Linda still has a basic amateuristic site design, she need to take her blog more serious.
I was going to say that bro. Being the no. 1 blogger in Nigeria has to call for classic site design and layout and not just the name.
Great List
Jide ogusanya, i know you will be there. You inspired me.
High Five to you.
My health / recipe blog is growing and I hope to make it to this?? list someday.
Nice List and still relevant. Big ups to you guys. May God bless my hustle too.
Wow! I am inspired to break limitations. Watch out For Flashlearners
What a wonderful list. Heros of naija list
I will get there some day, kudos to all the successful bloggers in Nigeria
Great list! Its good to know that Nigerian bloggers are really killing it! Young and upcoming bloggers should be encouraged!
Nairaland is an awesome forum, but wish there were other Nigeria forum in its class. There’s something about monopoly that doesn’t allow for variety or consider the user experience.
Competition brings out the best in any company.
This is good those people work hard to get there today and is all about having the passion that determines your next level for up coming bloggers like me you start now to work hard
Kmaxenews
This awesome! Ideas is indeed capital… It’s all about having the passion and the will to start from scratch. Thank you for sharing this..
