This week the spotlight is being turned on the Top Ten in the Klout Index. What is Klout? Well, very simply, it's the amount of influence and Twitter "presence" you have. Spend a lot of time on Twitter? Re-tweeting and being re-tweeted, interacting with various followers, building up a following and having others click on your links is what it's all about. Now, yes, Klout is ANOTHER index. Another way of ranking bloggers. You can opt in or not do it at all! It's no big deal but if you're interested in knowing your "influence", Klout is one way of learning.
You can find the Klout Index on the main page of the BritMums network and by clicking on the Blog Buzz tab on the menu bar under the logo, you can then click on Klout Index to see where you fit in if you've added your Twitter username to the Klout Index field in your profile details. The world does not begin and end on where you rank in the Klout Index but if you're interested in social media, then give it a whirl.
