Brand Republic Most Infuential Industry Bloggers: I am one of them #BR200







Recognition is always nice! So, I was pleased to see that I (with this Marketing Unleashed blog) has been listed as one of "the web's 200 most influential advertising, marketing, media and PR and digital bloggers" by Brand Republic.

Admittedely at 134, but a start! Looking forward to being in the top 100 over the next few months!

This is what they say about the rankings: "Welcome to The BR 200 list of industry blogs where we've brought together the best advertising, marketing, media, PR and digital blogs from around the world, ranked in terms of traffic and social influence. The BR 200 is compiled in collaboration with Brandwatch, the social media monitoring agency, and together we'll update the list on a monthly basis to ensure it reflects the best bloggers in the industry".

They explain the methodology as follows: "Working with Brandwatch, Brand Republic ranked the blogs by influence using an algorithm that weighted factors including traffic, Mozrank (determined in part by the number of inbound links) Twitter data, and social presence on, for example, Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. Where there were multiple authors writing on a single blog, their individual social presence on sites such as Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn was also considered"
