A reminder that the Top 25 Marketing & Social Media Blogs are ranked according to the number of sites/blogs linking to each, according to Technorati. The number you see after the blog name is how many sites/blogs Technorati claims have linked to the blog in the last 6 months. After that number is a positive or negative number, and this represents how many links the blog gained or lost from last week's Top 25. The final stat tells you what position the blog held in the Top 25 Last Week (LW). If you see this; (LW - UR), it means the blog wasn't ranked last week.

Pretty flat week for the Top 25 with mostly small moves up or down. Oddly, the exception to this was the top 3 blogs, which all were down sharply. Three of last week's new additions were up. Church of the Customer and CK's Blog are apparently in the Technorati Penalty Box, as neither blog's 'authority' has been consistently updated in months.

Experience Curve, Flooring the Customer, Customers Rock!, Movie Marketing Madness, and The Lonely Marketer all barely missed the cut.





Next update is next Wednesday.

Interesting stuff to read. I have yet to figure out what I do to impact or not impact who links to me. I guess posts that are useful get links. But yeah... you make me think with this list, Mack.

Chris I had someone come up to me during SBMU and they said that they were trying to get up to speed on marketing blogs and had heard that they should follow the Top 25. That's exactly what the list is there for, to give those that are new to blogging a resource to find many of the best marketing and social media voices out there.

interesting indeed. i also don't know why i'd be down a couple of slots on this list and up several on AdAge.

Sometimes, when I don't post at all, my rank on all lists goes up. Must be a lesson there too :>)
