The Power 150 is a ranking of the top English-language marketing blogs in the world, as developed by marketing executive and blogger, Todd Andrlik. I applied today today to see how I’d do.
Within hours came the reply:
Thanks for submitting your blog to the Power 150. Unfortunately, because of high demand, we can only accept applicants who score at least 40 total objective points &ndash that is, before a Todd Score is added into your total. Because of the way Collective Intellect scores are collected, they, along with Todd scores, cannot be added to a blog’s total until it is made live on the Power 150. We’ve grabbed your raw scores for the rest of our metrics, scaled them out of 150 points, and here is your point breakdown:
PostRank (1 to 50): 10
Yahoo InLinks (1 to 30): 1
Alexa Points (1 to 25): 3
TOTAL: 13You are welcome to resubmit your blog once you’ve built up some more links and influence, although we ask that you wait at least three months before doing so. Hopefully, you’ll make it in next time, and, if not, there’s no limit to the amount of times you can reapply, as long as they’re three months apart.
Next step: learning more about the criteria.
Any readers out there want to author a post about these? (I don’t know when I’ll have the chance.)
