Boston digital content firm takes top spot from nearly 300 marketing blogs

Cleveland, OH (July 31, 2009)-After just two years and 80 bloggers talking about content marketing, now almost 300 regularly cover the concept of content marketing - how companies can attract and retain customers through educational and entertaining content.

Today, Junta42, the content marketing-vendor matching service, announced the updated Top 42 Content Marketing Blogs.  Reviewed by Junta42's team of custom-content experts, the list includes some of the best-known marketing blogs, as well as up-and-comers that are reshaping and reinvigorating the content marketing conversation.

"2009 has been content marketing's coming out party," said Joe Pulizzi, founder and chief content officer of Junta42, and co-author of the book, "Get Content Get Customers."  "Without valuable, relevant content, social media is nearly impossible, which is why we continue to see a blog a day enter the content marketing conversation. This Top 42 list is our most comprehensive by far."

Unlike other top blog lists that focus solely on traffic and popularity, the Junta42 team reviews each blog individually on the basis of the following: 1) Relation to the field of content marketing, 2) Substantive value, 3) Regularity and 4) Google page rank.

The Top Five Blogs Include:

1.    Tipping Point Labs, the digital content firm from Boston
2.    Copyblogger, from writer and entrepreneur Brian Clark
3.    Marketing Interactions, from Ardath Albee, B2B Marketing Strategist
4.    Online Marketing Blog, from Lee Odden, CEO of TopRank Online Marketing
5.    PR 2.0, from Brian Solis, Principal at FutureWorks

This quarter's top 10 included two first timers, the Tipping Point Labs blog as well as Brain Traffic, the Minneapolis web content agency.

The Junta42 Top 42 is available as its own category of content marketing at Alltop.com. The Junta42 list is updated quarterly.
