I’ve been on a little bit of a Klout kick lately, which you may have noticed if you follow me on Twitter. As more brands start taking notice of your Klout score, I want to make sure I am ahead of or at least even with the game.
Klout isn’t showing any signs of slowing down. They’ve recently added Foursquare and YouTube to measure your social influence and now there’s even more, with more to come.
Here’s who they’ve added within the last few days:
- Blogger
- Tumblr
- Last.fm
- Flickr
Coming soon are:
- Quora
- Yelp
- Posterous
- WordPress
It’s obvious by looking at these that Klout sees an importance in one’s taste in music, blog streams and photo sharing.
What are your thoughts on Klout? Do you value its scoring system? Do share.
Klout has come a long way in a short time. It has added support for more social networking sources than other comparable services. It’s hard to tell whether this type of service will become mainstream. But it will certainly be relevant for people and businesses engaged in social media marketing. Signing up for Klout is simple and can’t hurt. Definitely worth a try – IMHO.
