How do we calculate the Junta42 Top 42?

Content marketing is all about the creation of great, story-form content (delivered through any channel) that ultimately influences someone to buy your product, take an action, or believe in a cause.

We began with a list of over 450 blogs through nominations and known content marketing-related blogs (the initial 2008 rankings contained 81 blogs).

We rated each on the following factors:

  1. The number of posts in last quarter that pertained to a content marketing topic. Those posting on 3 or more days per week received the highest number of points.
  2. Substantiveness of Posts. Here we worked to weed out posts that fell short of adding value to the collective body of knowledge about content marketing. For example, blogs that simply linked to other blogs or articles without adding new information, perspectives or ideas to the commentary received lower scores than did blogs that consistently delivered unique ideas, thoughtful insights, deep coverage, rich media and the like - you know, high-value content - to the community.
  3. Google PageRank. (All blogs were checked on the same day.)
  4. Previous Ranking.

    Each area is graded on a five-point scale, but weighted most toward substance and relation to content marketing.  It should be known that, although we use a consistent methodology, this is a subjective list and should be treated as a resource to find helpful content about content marketing.

    Here are the historical records for the top winners:
