Feb 09: Top 150 Social Media Marketing Blogs

February 9, 2009

Last November, we (ecairn) published a list of Top150 Social Media Marketing Blogs.

As promised (yes, we’re late :-) ), Here below is the updated list as of February 2nd along with info on trends.

You can also find this list along with a few gadgets at http://tops.ecairn.com

A quick warning:  some of the top variations up/down come from people moving their blog from one url to another.  ( we’ll try to fix that in the coming months).

    You can find more details about the methodology in our November post -> http://blog.ecairn.com/2008/11/11/answering-your-questions-on-top-150-social-marketing-blogs/

    Thanks for this; finding my blog on #104 (up 275) is very flattering. Do me a favour; the name of the blog is “Business of Marketing and Branding”, although the url is mokummarketing.com/blog. Would you mind amending?
    Thanks again for putting the list together.

    To even be within striking reach of some of the amazing sites you’ve listed is a real honor. Thanks!

  7. February 26, 2009

    Thanks for the mention. Looking forward to learning more about how you put your list together.

    Cheers!

    Interesting list with some good names in there. Although I’m surprised that you haven’t included Danny Brown’s blog – definitely one of the consistently best reads around.

      It’s in the list and definitely a good blog. Not far from making the list but as you can see there’re lots of very good blogs on the topic.
