Visualizing the Top Internet Marketing Blogs

by Vince on June 22, 2009

Welcome back!

Alright, so Saturday night I was alone, bored and forcing myself not to sleep.  Somehow, I ended up at Wordle and started plugging in websites, just to see what was going on with them right now.  Entering sites I normally frequent, I figured I would recognize most of them words that would show up, but many caught me off guard.  I started playing a game to see if I could guess the top 5 keywords mentioned on each blog.  I failed.  Miserably.

Anyhow, I thought it’d be kinda cool to put together a visual type of post that showed what the top marketing sites are talking about right now.  Feel free to berate me in the comments if your blog didn’t make the list…or if you don’t like the color scheme (they were randomly generated) of yours listed (FYI, I going alphabetical on this one).

Very cool what you have put together here Vince. This is fun to see what people are blogging about. I think you are onto something here and could be useful for those who are looking for “Internet marketing” related blogs that talk more about specific subjects or what not.. Thanks for the add here too!

Man, I looked EVERYWHERE for someone who’d already done this. Obviously overlooked this one (updated post w/ another link)!

That is a pretty cool way to look at things. It’s interesting to see all these major blogs focusing on slightly different things.

I’m a sucker for these visualizations, so thanks for this post. You helped me rediscover Wordle, bonus!

If you threw some some keyword rich, meme laden rss feeds at Wordle & added some large format displays you could create a meme exhibit.

This is really cool! It’d be even more interesting if you’d have put mine on here LOL – just kidding!

I was surprised to see Adsense as the biggest phrase for ProBlogger. I read his stuff all the time and don’t get that impression too much.

Thanks for the cool post!

This is awesome! I want one on my office wall of SEO-Chicks….Although it probably would be filled with too many profanities thanks to Julie ;p
