Top Media and Marketing Blogs? Web Strategy by Jeremiah clinches #24

This is great, this blog that you’re reading makes the list of the top media and marketing blogs, find out the top blogs according to Ad Age. Funny thing is, I don’t even consider this a Marketing blog, this is a “Web” blog. I find the integrated index is a good way to rank blogs, much better than relying on incoming links like Technorati does. Not bad, since I’ve only been on this domain for 14 or so months!

It’s interesting to note that many of the folks who scored better than I have SEO strategies. I’ve got one coming…stay tuned for details.

What’s my secret? I give away as much information as I can to help others (except the really important info to my employer), I really believe that the more you let go, the more will come back.

My wife says I need to ‘bump it up’ because 24 is a bad number in Chinese numerology. The Chinese words for twenty four translate to ‘easy death’ in cantonese…gulp.

    Well done! How and where do you find the time and energy to run this blog, have a job and a homelife? I’m not the most web literate guy on the planet and quite a lot goes over my head on the site but I enjoy it immensely and all the hardwork you obviously put in really shows. If you are ever in London pop in to the agency, it would be great to meet you. By the way because of you I’m getting rid of our coporate webite and starting a blog – any tips?

    Colin, Jane, Thanks

    Philip. I manage my time well, I use my blog as a one to many communication tool. I only spend about 20 minutes per post, often have hundreds in draft format that I slowly work on, and practice.

    I also cut out IM from my life, and look for communication patterns, if I answer more than one question twice, then it should be a blog post –assuming it’s not confidential or competitively part of it.

    Also, my employer is great, we realize we can demonstrate the value of our social media work by walking the walk. I’m thankful for that.

    There’s lots of tips on running a corporate blog, start with conferences with the blog business summit, read cluetrain manifesto, followed by naked conversations, and read blogs.
