47 Lists of Bloggers to Watch in 2010 – Check them Out!
Earlier this month we published a list of 30 bloggers to watch in 2010 that caused a lot of conversation and debate in the comments section of that post. Of course the list of bloggers were simply one persons opinion and fairly much focused around that persons interests – so a week later I invited readers to create their own ‘bloggers to watch’ lists and submit links to them in the comments of that post.
47 bloggers have created such lists so far. The great thing about the submissions is that while there are some themes there is also a lot of diversity in the lists submitted. There is everything from food bloggers to watch, to Mom bloggers to watch, to greeen bloggers to watch, to personal finance blogges to watch to diabetic bloggers to watch. While not every niche is represented it is a great celebration of the blogosphere.
As it’s been a couple of weeks since I called for posts I thought it might be time to combine all the lists of bloggers to watch into a list of posts.
I encourage you to surf through the list – find the posts you resonate with – link up to them, tweet them and add to them with your own comments and posts.
You are welcome to keep submitting your posts of bloggers to watch in your niche but I probably won’t compile the list again unless there are a lot submitted.

Hello Darren, I remember this first post and all the debate it caused, so you solved it with a great idea! I can see a few of this lists already that I am going to take a look at, you never know I might be on one! Probably a bit optimistic as my blogs only a month old ; )

Will be going though the rest of this list today. Thanks for the great references

I thought that my 15 Minimalist/Simplicity Bloggers list was just a fun exercise and a way to help publicize the niche that I’m in but it’s also done more to increase my subscriber count than any other thing I’ve done on my blog. I’m new to blogging, but before I created the list, I only had 25 subscribers. I’ve increased 10-fold since publishing my list two weeks ago.
Karl Foxley
January 27th, 2010 1:02 am
That’s a nice round-up for me to work through. It’s nice to come across lists that are diverse and do not contain just blogs about blogging (for me at least).

I really enjoy reading these lists, and it is especially cool because I have an interest in quite a few different niches. I have seen friends on several of these lists, and it’s always great to see your own name/blog mentioned!

I found this article through my daughter’s Commentz site – Sarah Evans. How timely for me since she helped me to create my very own blog site! She has been very helpful and an inspiration to me. I’ve been reading other people who blog about books for research. Who knows, maybe one day, I’ll make your list!

That’s great feedback that these lists have been popular posts. I’ll have to put together my own list of eco-friendly mom bloggers. There are a few lists of mom bloggers on here, but I haven’t seen a lot of my favorites.

Thanks for including my lists in your list. I have found great success on both NarrowBridge.net and IsraelSituation.com with these list posts. I did the leg work to let people know they were included and had good link backs and traffic.
I think this is going to be an annual post for me from now on.

Thank you for including my post in your list! (I’m #22 if anyone’s interested)
The list I wrote ended up being pretty popular, but not the most popular post I’ve ever written. I was also overjoyed to discover that my blog had actually been listed in another “bloggers to watch in 2010″ list! Awesome!
Thanks for sharing the idea, Darren! ^_^

Great list and post.

Darren,
Wow! Thanks for all of the wonderful information contained in this post and the links within it.
I went to many of the sites with the intention of signing up to follow recommended blogs. To my surprise, a number of them, maybe as many as 20%, popped up with a screen full of code when I tried to sign up for the RSS feed. Most worked just fine.
Do you have any thoughts on how to let people know their RSS subscriptions are not working? It’s sad that they have been recommended and are losing subscribers because of this.
Also wanted to say that I love your blog! Your posts are wonderful as is your leadership in the blogging world :)

Sweet baby, jesus! How would a girl get any blogging done if she went through all those lists? ;-)
It is interesting to see what types of blogs even warranted a list, but I’m disappointed there aren’t any real entertainment blog lists. It’s hard to find resources specific to us.
