Conversationally

This news from Valerie Coombs at BuzzLogic . . .

I just did an influence query on “sobcon liz strauss” and got these results.

How did we get these results?
BuzzLogic’s influence algorithm takes a dozen factors into account in determining the influence of posts and a blog overall. They include:

  • a blogger’s credibility and expertise on a specific topic over time,
  • who is linking in,
  • the quality and influence of all in-linkers and
  • the popularity of a post overall.

Congrats to Lorelle VanFossen for the most influential post in the entire sobcon conversation!
