List of Indian Blogs in the AdAge Power 150 Rankings of Top Media and Marketing Blogs

Welcome back to Gauravonomics Blog! Subscribe to my feed now and you'll never miss a single post!

Almost a year back, I had compiled a list of Indian blogs in the AdAge Power 150 rankings of top media and marketing blogs.

Gauravonomics was at #224 then, and the other Indian blogs in the list were India PR Blog at #266, Rajesh @ Blogworks at #340, Desi Creative at #451 and The Online Agency Blog at #481.

I decided to update that list today and here’s how the Indian blogs are ranked on the AdAge Power 150. I’m also including a automatically updating banner after each blog to make it easy for me to track this list in future –

- Gauravonomics at #123 

- WatBlog at #140

- PageTraffic Blog at #399

- Rajesh @ Blogworks at #425

- Marketing Practice at #456

- Marketology-Emerging Trends at #556

- Bhatnaturally at #590

- MisEntropy at #629

- Brants at #668

- IndiaPRBlog at #684

- Technology, Mobility, Usability and other Musings at #721

- SEO Tips PodCast Blog at #746

- eCommerce Retail Blog at #763

- People As I See at #764

- Interactive Marketing Blog at #834

- Customer World at #836

- Marketing in India at #876

- The Online Agency Blog at #877

- Desicreative at #881

- Search Engine Optimization Blog at #883

- Biz Dewz at #894

- Marketing Amnesia at #901

- EarnFun at #908

- Start Internet Business at #922

Here is a list of marketing, public relations and social media blogs in India I had compiled some time back. Here’s a a ranking of social media blogs in India created by Sampad Swain and here are my thoughts on it.

A year after I compiled my original list, it’s great to see that a number of new marketing blogs from India have entered the AdAge rankings. However, AdAge Power 150 is a misnomer now; it should be renamed as AdAge Power 1000!

My other thought is that even though there are more than a dozen Indian marketing blogs on the list, we hardly cross-promote each other. I wish we could find a way of cross-promoting each other’s blogs so that at least 10 of us are in the top 150 of the AdAge Power 150 rankings by the end of 2009. That will be nice.

  • Thanks for generating this list. The point on cross promotion is absolutely valid. I think I will make a start by linking some of the blogs I regularly read from the list above.
  • @Blaiq: In fact, in my list of marketing, public relations and social media blogs in India, I had included the bloggers' Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter IDs. That list is due for an update though.

    @Rajesh: Thank you. I'm surprised you remembered my post from last year. I'm hoping that I'll stay in the top 150 through 2009. I think that no ranking criteria is perfect and linkbacks is a better metric, than either feed subscribers (too static) or traffic (too much fluctuation). We may argue about whether Technorati is a good enough tool to count linkbacks, but it's the best we have.
  • Gaurav: I remember you had promised to be in the top 150 last year and there you are :) - Congrats, and continue to write with same vigour.

    I too am back to writing after a break and beginning to gather my rhythm. Now if only Technorati started to pick up the links again - it SIMPLY REFUSES TO WORK :). Am not a great believer on the weightage that the 150 list gives to Technorati. I find it very suspectto manipulation. Also half, or more, people link me as blogworks.in instead of blogworks.in/blog and that Technorati doesn't take into account for my blog. Anyway, great start to the year - cheers.

  • Thanks for compiling this list, Gaurav - and I do agree with your last point.

    May be we can ensure we all connect on Twitter and build a tighter-knit community from there on.

    A supplemental list to the above could then be a list of twitter pages of all Indian marketing bloggers (am aware of quite a few Indian marketing blogs that aren't on the AdAge list) - so that it's easy to find each other.
