At one time not long ago, public relations and marketing professionals read printed industry periodicals such as O’Dwyer’s and PR Week along with mainstream publications like The Wall Street Journal or New York Times.
With the rise of the Internet and user-friendly blogging platforms like WordPress, PR and marketing professionals have access to a wider spectrum of publications and can easily spread their views in their own publications or blogs.
Indeed, some of the most thought-provoking commentary comes from independent bloggers who are experts in their fields. In addition, blogging has proven to be a valuable strategy for many PR pros and marketers and an important way to attract website visitors and build reputations as authorities.
Most PR and marketing professionals have their personal list of favorite industry blogs and online publications.
The following is our list of favorite PR and marketing publications and blogs, developed from years of researching content for CyberAlert’s weekly newsletter, Media Monitoring & Measurement News. Many of the publications and blogs are well-known and highly influential. Others may be less well-known but offer provocative content.
Feel free to keep this list as a resource and to add your own favorite blogs.
(We humbly request that you consider including the CyberAlert Blog in your list of favorites. It publishes two new blog posts each business day on hot topics in PR, marketing and social media. You might also want to sign up to receive Media Monitoring & Measurement News, a weekly email newsletter that includes all the previous week’s blog posts.
