One of the problems I see you having is that you list the posts for a blog by the name of the author of the post. So you get the author “paul” from my blog ( http://www.rickety.us ) being listed with “Paul” from another blog ( http://alatterdayvoice.blogspot.com/ ). See http://www.mormonbloggers.com/author/paul to see what I mean. “Paul on Politics” is the paul of Rickety, not the Paul of A Latter-day Voice.
You should list the posts for a blog with that blog irrespective of the author of the post. Having said that your site is still very useful and an excellent source for articles by LDS authors.
