Ten Awesome people to check out in the blogosphere

Check out my quick Podcast Introduction

Ryan Critchett

This guy is TEARIN’ IT UP right now! Ryan is rapidly moving into the Social Media space. A guy with strong opinions and excellent ideas, he is an up & coming blogging and Social Media “rockstar” of the future! Ryan “gets” the Social Media thing and what it is actually for, and is eager to engage with people and chat. Ryan is more about passion than profession, that’s what I love about him. Expecting big things from him this year. So check him out!

Danny Iny

Danny is a really friendly guy with an excellent knowledge of marketing, communications and business in general. He has given me some amazing advice and support since I connected with him. Danny is friendly, approachable and knowledgeable, and an excellent connection to make. It is scary to think that he’s only been properly blogging a little longer than me and is already killing it out there!

Jk Allen

My man Jk manages to balance a full-time job with a highly successful blog (sorry that rhymed!). His posts are awesome, real, highly relevant and based on experience. Jk is well known in the blogosphere for his insightful comments as well as his great posts, and has built a thriving community at Hustler’s notebook. On a personal note, he is a friendly guy that is happy to help and support the community he participates in.

Jon Alford

Jon really cares about his blog and his readers. He has extensive experience working in various online businesses and his knowledge is amazing. Particularly if you’re new to online business, check out JonAlford.com and I guarantee you’ll learn a heap of great stuff for free. Jon and I have spoke over Skype a few times and we get on great. What I love about Jon is although he takes his business very serious, he doesn’t take himself too seriously. We always have a good laugh when we chat!

Mark Harai

Mark is a seasoned businessman who has been consulting companies for years, from working with start-up cable and telecom companies before many people believed they would work to working with successful PR companies of today. He is another dude with an extremely in-depth understanding of the “Social Web”, and is also a very friendly and helpful guy who really knows how to build relationships, hence his big online following.

Stuart Mills

Like Jk (Stu and Jk are good friends through blogging), Stu also has a busy schedule and a full-time job, but manages to run Unlockthedoor.net, and very well. I think that Stu is a blogger through and through, his posts are amazingly high quality. I connected with him on Skype not too long ago, we get on really well. Stu has some great advice and is another helpful guy. His recent Value 101 post series killed it, and he managed to connect with and feature some BIG online names.

Marcus Sheridan

The Sales Lion is already making a mark in the blogosphere, a really big mark! He has a very successful swimming pool company in the States, as well as a blog that has gone from strength to strength, particularly in 2011. Most of his blog posts have 200 or more comments on! What I love is that Marcus takes the time to respond to all of his comments. I love public speaking, and Marcus rocks at it! He is currently establishing himself as a renowned public speaker. Marcus recently suggested we have a Skype call, I was honoured to be asked because we don’t know each other that well yet and also I know how busy he is. Looking forward to having a chat with him.

Marlee Ward

Marlee is a very accomplished businesswoman, and she normally uses a combination of text and video posts, which I think are absolutely great. When you read posts on Marleeward.com you see her business expertise shine through. She’s also very friendly and helpful, and has built a great following at her blog. No wonder she has so many happy coaching clients! Marless is highly sociable, I can tell she’s a great networker, so pop over for a chat!

Paul Wolfe

Out of all the guys I connect with, I have to say that I think Paul is one of the most passionate about blogging and writing. You can see this in his posts. Paul is another excellent businessman, with a very successful bass guitar site. What I like is that he takes a different but highly effective approach to most when it comes to business. I know he’s one to watch out for, definitely going from strength to strength both in terms of blogging and business.

Benny Hsu

Benny knows how to blog. You can tell he spends time on his posts to ensure they are of the highest quality. He is also very honest and talks about past experiences, both good and bad. This makes for a very effective blog. Again, Benny has not been on the scenes for too long but is already doing really well and eager to hear feedback from his readers. Definitely another guy to keep an eye on and check out!
