What is Your KLOUT Score.....and is this Important?

What is Your KLOUT Score.....and is it Important?

Meet Joe Fernandez, CEO of Klout who was interviewed on Sept 12, 2012 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco at the ‘Three Days of the Valley’ Tech Event.

Joe Fernandez started by trying to make sense and to understand Facebook and Twitter and says the idea of influence on the web has become very critical. He explained that Klout is a critical component of how we communicate with others. The score goes from 1-100 and it measures the on-line users influence with others. Fernandez says “Your influence on the web is so important and now loan companies and perspective employers are looking at your Klout score”. He did stress the point that employers do look at other important factors such as job skills and resumes but that a higher Klout score is a good indicator that this person has an influential presence to others and could have a positive effect on their company if hired.

He also explained it is not big your network is but how engaged your influence and interaction is when you share content.

Recently they had to redesign their system since it was became known that Justin Bieber had a higher score than the President of the United States so now some outer experiences can now affect your score if you are in the public’s eye.

 Starbucks is going to be testing a new drink  so they recently asked Klout for a list of their high scorers . So you never know what perk a high Klout score can get you. Plus Klout gives perks for increasing your score as well. Check out the site for the details of this at www.klout.com/.

I have a Klout score and it has been slowly rising monthly for the past few months. Does Klout seem to work? It seems to show that you are getting your message out and influencing others. Klout does seem to be a positive feature so I plan to keep watching my score and trying to raise my score.
