One\u00a0of the best ways to generate publicity is to create a\u00a0“Top 10” list.<\/p>\n
But if you want to start\u00a0a real buzz online, make the list a lot longer. For example, how about choosing the best bloggers in your area of expertise?\u00a0PR\/marketing blogger\u00a0Todd Andrlik’s “Top 150 Marketing Blogs” list shows\u00a0how to do it.<\/p>\n
I like five\u00a0things about this list:<\/p>\n
—Bloggers like me who are on the list (this blog is Number 104) are blogging about it. That’s 150 bloggers who will be eager to give him publicity. That’s in addition to all the other bloggers who don’t blog about marketing or PR but whose readers are interested in the topics.\u00a0<\/p>\n
—In addition to all that publicity, his blog gets dozens\u00a0of inbound links, which improve the page ranking.<\/p>\n
—The neat, easy-to-read list presented in table format.<\/p>\n
—An explanation of\u00a0the multimetric algorithm\u00a0he used for the rankings.\u00a0<\/p>\n
—The nifty “Power 150” logo<\/a>,\u00a0available at his blog in a variety of sizes.\u00a0What a great branding tool. He’s\u00a0encouraging bloggers like me who made the list to post the logo in the margin on our blogs. Exposure for him and more credibility for us.<\/p>\n I didn’t\u00a0 know about the list until I read an item<\/a> about it this morning at David Meerman\u00a0Scott’s Web Ink Now<\/a> blog.\u00a0Thanks, David.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One\u00a0of the best ways to generate publicity is to create a\u00a0“Top 10” list.
