The Most Commonly Featured Bloggers on RSM

21
December

Since some of you are already out there keeping score, and I was curious myself, I decided to see who the most prominently featured bloggers are on this blog.

If you’re keeping score, Maltoni edges out Godin 3-2, with Jaffe and others in third place with 1 post each. — Joseph Jaffe

Keep in mind that I did not go through my entire archives noting the number of times I linked every blogger. I just counted the amount of articles I included in my monthly “essential blog posts” that I have been putting together since August. You can find each respective month here (July, August, September, October, and November).

Here’s the standings:
The # of posts they have had featured are in parenthesis.
1. Chris Brogan (14)
2. Darren Rowse (6)
2. Valeria Maltoni (6)
4. Seth Godin (5)
4. Jeremiah Owyang (5)
6. Brian Clark (4)
6. Dan Schawbel (4)
8. Brian Solis (2)
8. Rohit Bharghava (2)
8. Mike Sansone (2)
8. Mitch Joel (2)
8. David Meerman Scott (2)

8. And if you count both Ryan Paugh and Ryan Healy as one person representing Employee Evolution then they have (2) as well.

If you’re not reading the blogs of these extremely talented and thoughtful social media, blogging, and marketing pioneers, then you are definitely missing out. Take a couple of minutes and go subscribe to their content. While you’re at it, check out my blogroll for some other great bloggers.

Do you read most of these bloggers? Who were you surprised didn’t have more featured posts than this?

At the conclusion of the year, all of these bloggers will be facing off in a celebrity death-match style battle royale for bragging rights.

    I certainly didn’t intend for this to be a contest, but now that you have aggregated rankings, clearly I need to get my sh1t together and climb that ladder!

    First I need to get on your blogroll :)

    Rock on, Ryan!

    Thank you for taking the time to read and share, Ryan. I’m honored to be a consideration and of help to you as you learn about how you will leave your own mark. I’m liking the seating arrangement in this conversation ;-)

    Keep up the good work.

    @Valeria – If I am taking the time to read all of it anyway, I might as well be aggregating and sharing good content to others that may not have the time to read as much (though perhaps I should spend less time reading and more time posting).

    I am definitely learning a lot from reading your blog, and most of the others included in my blogroll!
