KeySplash Creative Ranked 14 in Junta42 Top 42 Marketing Blogs

I’m very excited to announce that the KeySplash Creative Conversations blog ranked 14th in the new Junta 42 Top 42 Marketing Blogs.

This quarter’s update included a record 224 blogs, up from 187 last quarter. In addition, the Junta42 Top 42 are now featured as part of the content marketing category at Alltop.com (which will be updated soon with the new 42).

According to the Junta42 selection criteria, “Other than the Top 42 being an amazing collection of the best marketing and publishing minds in the world, we like the creation of this list because it’s not all based on data coming from the likes of Alexa, Technorati, Bloglines and other top blog lists that purely “count” stuff.  …  The Top 42 Content Marketing blogs include those thought leaders who are carrying the flag of the content revolution, teaching both buyers and sellers how to better communicate with each other.”

Here is the complete Top 42 Content Marketing Blogs: 

1 Marketing with Meaning
2 PR 2.0
