Top 10 influencers in the online marketing arena

Top 10 influencers in the online marketing arena
We all have people we admire and read that are deemed influencers or gurus when it comes to anything online marketing.
Sure many of you may say most gurus out there are all talk and no substance, that they most likely are always trying to sell you on something.

The truth is somewhere in the middle, sure most of them have a personal agenda and in essence want to make money out of their popularity. But a lot of things the are doing and saying can be very important to anyone that want to stay on top with everything new that comes and develops in the online marketing arena. Point if you can learn a lot from such gurus or influencers.

I'll list below 10 of them I find the most relevant and worth reading, keep in mind this top comes from my personal views and opinions, I have no hidden agenda on promoting certain people in front of others.

1. Rand Fishkin - this is my number guy, possible because he tends to focus more on SEO and has been around for a long time and has a fast experience in anything SEO. But I also like the guy on a personal level, he usually has clear and simple to understand statements and I totally recommend you watch his video content named "White Board Fridays" on Moz blog.
2. Larry Kim
3. Jay Baer
4. Matt Cutts
5. Neil Patel
6. Guy Kawasaki
7. Jeff Bullas
8. Ann Handley
9. Seth Godin
10. Avinash Kaushik

Well I do most of my learning here to be honest!

However I quite like Pat Flynn. I first came across him over a year ago when I was trying to figure out how to write my first ebook to give away on my website and I just didn't know where to start. I downloaded his free ebook on how to write an ebook.

I liked the way he explained things. It was so simple and easy to understand, so it really helped me get started.

Hmm. Pat Flynn. Never heard of this guy before, thanks for the share Lynne!
And yes, I also learn a lot from SEOclerk's CDs.

Yeah I quite like the straight forward and no hyped up BS way that he explains things.

Neil Patel and his Advanced Customer Acquisition Webinar sounds awesome actually. I've heard about Neil from literally hundreds of freelancers and most of them seems to agree on the fact that Neil is an amazing person who'll give you some "super effective" marketing knowledge and tips. I haven't look into it myself, but it seems like it's a good thing actually.

Just like most of the guys though.. And that's actually the problem too. I can't afford to buy these people's $500+ programs, products and courses, as it'll be a total of several thousands dollars.. So who to go with?! - If I would have to go with one of these guys, then I'll probably go with Neil Patel actually, just due to all the good things I've heard about him..

But it would be terrible in case I didn't spent the money on something I was truly interested in, so you better watch out and make sure to go with the right person.

I am not aware of influencers yet because I just learned of that term this year. But I understand that an influencer has thousands of followers who are active with interaction hence an influencer can command a price for their endorsement. You said that the influencer who is number 1 in the list is an SEO expert so I guess he will be getting more and more followers because SEO is getting to be the biggest thing this year.
