Top bloggers from Singapore on Twitter
Here is the complete top 50 blogs from Singapore. To help you stay informed on their activities, a Twitter list has been created to regroup their Twitter profiles (when available) together with some other top bloggers from Singapore active on Twitter.
You can check what they are up to and follow the whole list to keep in touch with them all at once. Of course, don’t forget to follow @ASEANUP too! 🙂
Singapore’s top blogs selection criteria
Though the highest ranking blogs and websites in many “top” lists are often legitimate, when a single tool is used to rank these websites the middle and lower ranking ones are often not the most relevant, because of the inherent characteristics of the tool used. That’s why the previous list has been created by carefully selecting the 50 most influential blogs from Singapore through a combination of well-established tools for digital marketing.
Domain authority and estimated monthly traffic
First, a shortlist of 70 blogs with recent updates was created by screening 120+ of the most prominent blogs in English from Singapore through MOZ’s Domain Authority and SimilarWeb’s monthly estimated traffic as of February 2017. Only the blogs with high domain authority or estimated traffic were kept. One high-ranking blog in Chinese language was left out of the shortlist: mylovelybluesky.com.
Total social media community
Then, the social media community on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Youtube of each blog in the shortlist was recorded when they were above 1,000 followers. These communities were added to create a “total social media community” for each blog and indicate the general popularity of the blog/blogger on social media.
Final ranking
Finally by combining SimilarWeb’s estimated monthly traffic (weighed 2) and the total social media community (weighed 1) for each blog, the shortlist was ordered from the most to least influential. The top 50 blogs obtained through these aggregated criteria were finally retained to ensure the most relevant references and measure blogs through their relative influence in one useful list.
