BMA’s Top 25 Advertising blogs
I did a similar post last night on The Viral Garden listing the Top 25 Marketing Blogs, according to Alexa’s stats. That post has already gotten a good reaction on the blog and via email, so I decided why not, I’ll do a similar post for advertising blogs here.
Here’s the disclaimers: The rankings are based on your Alexa traffic rankings. And whereas the marketing blogs excluded any that focused primarily on marketing news (such as Marketing Vox), the advertising blogs will include them. Also, at least half your content has to be advertising (yes this will sometimes be a judgement call), and if your blog is best known as being a marketing (GapingVoid), or PR (Micro Persuasion) blog, then I won’t list it here. And yes, I listed BMA on both of them. I think that’s fair, since about half our content is advertising, and about half is marketing.
And yes, it is entirely possible that I will totally miss your blog that should have made the list, in fact it will probably happen. Send me a link and I’ll be happy to give it a look and may include it in the next poll. From now on the new polls will be published every Monday. So here’s the first list:
1 - AdRants - 9233
2 - ad-rag - 19589
3 - Werbeblogger - 19756
4 - Media Buyer/Planner - 25645
5 - Adverblog - 26711
6 - AdFreak - 28979
7 - Advertising/Design Goodness - 30054
8 - AdJab - 38901
9 - Wooster Collective - 50068
10 - AdverBox - 67462
11 - AdPulp - 93280
12 - Beyond Madison Avenue - 147519
13 - Designers who blog - 149948
14 - ….HOW ADVERTISING SPOILED ME…. - 168180
15 - Ad Blather - 220520
16 - Advertising for Peanuts - 220848
17 - Ad Hunt - 341517
18 - American Copywriter - 500545
19 - Ernie Schenck Calls this Advertising? - 557852
20 - Room 116 - 569026
21 - Copyranter - 669454
22 - Ads That Suck - 721214
23 - AdScam - 790667
24 - Brandflakes for Breakfast - 859331
25 - Advertising Ourselves to Death - 1076373
Again, this is completely unscientific, and mostly based on Alexa rankings, and my judgment. I’ll start doing this every Monday.
