My Top 10 Influential Bloggers of 2009
Posted by FlowJul 29
I remember Anton Diaz’s during his talk at the iBlog5 at The University of The Philippines Diliman, that there are four levels of bloggers, the personal blogger, the celebrity blogger, the advocacy blogger and the maven blogger. With Janet Torral’s Influential Blogger where we acknowledge bloggers and blogs yearly either newbie bloggers or newly launched blogs or a 1 year old blog. Para sa akin I make sure that I do read the blog pero to be honest tamad ako mag-comment and I make sure I’m reading it anonymously in short hindi ko sya binabasa with my Firefox where I’m automatically naka-log in sa Myblog, and Blogcatalog. So here are nominees for the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs for 2009 writing project of Ms. Janette Toral hope i-visit din ninyo sila at basahin ang mga blogs nila.

1. Viral and Video – Working on multi media platform company, viral is the most important to reach your market without any cost or effort and the easiest among the viral method is video where you can se the product or material moving and with audio. Videochops.com of Coy Caballes may not actually promote products and services, but the concept of capturing the online users for 5 minutes or more shows the stickiness of your material can be. With 4 ingredients: 1. Moving Visuals, 2. Clear Audio, 3. Effects and 4. The video blogger can sing (that is optional).

2. SEO – Do I need to define? Seeing newbie blogs that is already PR4, walang pinagkaiba yan sa masugid na manliligaw na 24 hours kung bumakod sa prospect niya, para sa term ng mga kabataang kagaya ko KARIR ang tawag dun, PinayAds.com of Iris ang masasabi kong talagang may effort pagdating on how she optimize her blog talaga to make it PR4 in a year.


3. Food Food Food – The most controversial blog topic na lahat naman ay nagcomment at nag bigay ng opinyon, pero ano pakialam ko masarap kumain at aminin natin yun e ano naman kung PatayGutom.com ako at ang favorite activity ko lang ay Foodivites.info.
4. Vocation

a. Profession – Blogging is extension daw ng sarili mo kung ano ka or kung ano ang ginagawa mo there are 3 bloggers and blogs na sinusundan ko since the time the launch their sites and recommended din sa akin ng mga friends ko, bukod sa sabi ng suking tindahan ko sa kabilang kanto ng aming bahay diyan sa Malabon (Upper Lands). Kung ikaw ang isang student hindi ba nakakacurious i-check ang Friendster, Facebook and Multiply ni teacher? Paano pa kung alam mo ang mismong url ng Ms. Tirazona na isa pa lang TheAccidentalTeacher.com na bukod sa experience niya as a teacher nagkwekwento rin si Ma’am ng mga kakikayan niya at ang kanyang Autism advocacy para next time alam mo kung paano mo makukuha ang kiliti ni Teacher Ria.


b. Parenting – Kung na-amazed tayo kay Lola Techie, what’s more kung mabasa mo ang mom at dad mo na nakikipagsabayan sa iyo pagdating sa blogging. Angel Cuala of Fatherblogger.com and Nobe of DearIago.com are my “Nanay and Tatay” Bloggers this year. Check out Angel’s post on parenting tips marami ka singuratong makukuhang aral, and what about Nobe na umikot ang blog nya writing to her Iago about things na dapat matutunan nya sa buhay bukod dito ang mga twisted ideas ng mga nanay bukod sa pagsuotin ang anak nila ng Sta. Claus or elf costume… yes victim din ako isama na ang Robin Hood costume (wish I can burn those pictures sigh…)

5. Community – Again do I need to elaborate? Para sa hindi pa nakakaalam ito ang mga taong magkakasama for the sake for Farmtown and Farmville isama na rin ang Twitter and Plurk. Walang pinagkaiba yang sa Row 1, Row 2, Row 3, and Row 4 sa classroom na grupo grupo na barkada, pero in blogging aside sa mga topic bloggers na nakakasama natin nariyan din ang mga fellowship ng mga regional bloggers kagaya ng CebuBloggers.com na in-love ako sa shirt nila sobra na may Blogger to bai! I remember Ad Congress campaign na Donut Bai, “Bai” is the first Cebuano term na natutunan ko next to the Visayan word na “Kaon” na paborito nating gawin.

Aside sa regional group like the Cebu Bloggers, sino ba ang hindi makakalimot sa sa movie na Godfather at show sa PTV 4 na Pinpin? Don’t ever think na magkakaroon ng Godfather Chinese edition, AbsoluteCousins.com ang tinutukoy ko alisin lang si Vito Corleone, their cousins and their Chinese na ang hilig ay nag blog, if ano ang connect sa Godfather, wala lang may nagsuggest kasi na yun ang ilagay siya sisihin ninyo.

6. Travel – Bukod sa food, ito yung next na paboritong gawin nang tao ay ang mag travel, kaya nauso ang mga travel shows kasi gusto ng tao makita muna ang pupuntuhan nila bago sila pumunta, ganun din sa blogging people surfs the net to check reviews, stories and photos bago sila pumunta sa lugar kaya si Batang Yagit naging Lakwatsero na rin sa new blog niyang Lakwatsero.Batangyagit.com.
Sa mga hindi ko napost I’m sorry pero hindi naman kayo magtatampo sige ang magtampo hindi magkakaroon ng lovelife forever and ever, pero para sa akin influential kayo sa akin kaso we only need 10 bloggers/blog to nominate. Like what others do sa mga shows sa last gap ng program nila we should thank our sponsors so here’s the spiel This writing project will not be possible without the support of sponsors such as Absolute Traders, My Brute Cheats, Business Summaries, Fitness Advantage Club, Events and Corporate Video, Events at Work, Dominguez Marketing Communications, Red Mobile, Budget hotel in Makati, Lucio C. Tan Group of Companies, and Blog4Reviews.com
* Sa mga nakapansin, yes high in sugar po ngayon ang author na ito sa panahong ito.
