Seth's Blog continues to surge. Seth may not want to talk to anyone, but apparently everyone wants to talk, and link, to him. Guess controversy still sells. After that, Coolz0r has also quietly continued its march to the top. The Belgian marketing blog has sliced its Alexa score in half since the first Top 25 list back in April, and at this point is on the verge of cracking the Top 5. Diva Marketing has continued its hot streak and Toby appears to be a week or 2 away from cracking Alexa's Top 100,000, and perhaps the Top 10 as well.

Outside the Top 10, Logic + Emotion, Pro Hip-Hop Marketing, and Movie Marketing Madness all had nice weeks. Marketallica is the lone new entry, and makes a nice debut at #21. Outside the Top 25, any other week I would say Studio UES is again the story, as Tricia's blog jumps almost another 100,000 Alexa spots. But Marketing Nirvana is literally on fire, I believe it rose about 300,000 spots this week. One or BOTH blogs could crack the Top 25 by the end of the MONTH at this rate. We hear a lot of talk about how it's 'too late' in the blogging game to start a new blog and have it be successful. These two blog proves that's not the case.

As always, next update is next Monday.
