Apptivo's Small Business University Releases the List of Top 25 Upcoming Small Business Blogs to Follow in 2012, Created Using the Human Metric System

San Francisco, CA, October 29, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Small Business University (http://runapptivo.apptivo.com/small-business-university) which is powered by Apptivo, today announced the Top 25 upcoming blogs by small business experts. Each one of these small business experts has carved out a niche for themselves in the Small Business community. The areas of expertise of these blogs vary from starting a business, marketing, advertising to money management and technology. There are also a few blogs which specialize in providing quality content for women entrepreneurs and first time entrepreneurs.

The criterion for selecting these blogs is what separates this list of Top 25 Upcoming Small Business Blogs from the other such lists. All the other lists rely on dumb numbers/metrics to identify the leaders, but Small Business University has developed a proprietary Human Metric System for analyzing the quality of each blog post. The Human Metric System measures the blogs on more than 15 areas, which a real human reader would care about, such as originality of the content, value of the content to the target audience, organic viral potential of the content, ability of the content to influence others. Each shortlisted blog is rated by our panel of small business owners/experts on these metrics. Based on this rating Small Business University creates the final list.

The complete list of the Top 25 Upcoming Small Business Blogs to follow for 2012 can be found at http://runapptivo.apptivo.com/top-25-upcoming-small-business-blogs-to-follow-for-2012-5231.html.
