My friend Mark Bartikoski brought this article and infographic to my attention. It was posted on Business 2 Community..
Whether we like it or not, Klout is here to stay, brands use it to find influencers who will in turn become advocates, companies use it when they're interviewing perspective employees and many of our peers pay attention to it too.
Once scrutinized for its methods and criticized as being nothing more than an online zodiac, Klout has nevertheless secured its place in the social media...
Included in this piece is a tip sheet to help you raise your score.
How does Klout measure your score?
**The number of people you influence + how much you influence them + how influential they are = your Klout Score
What goes into your score?
**Retweets and mentions

This piece and infographic is from Adam Vincenzini on his blog.
I selected this article because it's another way for you to find key influencers and these tools will help to narrow your search
Here are some highlights:
Instead of focusing on the subjectivity of this process (and how this insight is deployed) Here's how you can use a combination of free tools to narrow your search.
Where do online influencers operate?
**They are active everywhere:
Most popular are:
blogs, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Online
communities, discussion boards
Assumptions:
**Influencers are active on Twitter
**Influencers operate some for of blogging hub
Focus on the intelligence you can glean from Twitter initially then verify this initial sweep with blog (or relevant hub) data
The initial steps involve:
1. Search by keyword
2. Search by location
3 tools useful in the process: The first two you can also search by location:
**followerwonk.com - then run this through another influencer tool -
tweetlevel to give it even more relevance (this isn't fool proof)
**locafollow.com
**twingulate.com
There are more suggestions in this piece having said that:
**No matter how hard we try, a 100% fool proof influence rating is near on impossible because influence is not a science, it can't be.
** this can help narrow things down, significantly

Rescooped by malek from SOCIAL MEDIA, what we think about! |
I am thoroughly convinced that Connect.Me will obliterate Klout as well as PeerIndex and possibly Kred as well. Connect.me aims to humanize reputation scoring. Clout from our peers, with incredible transparency. Further, how Trust is regarded, as Connect.Me is still being crafted, this is what wins you over.
The vouches are only the beginning. We are going to see stats per specialty/general public and by specialty/within our connections, and we will thus know who the 'go-to' person is, whether we want to fish within our own pond or worldwide, and we will have this from Connect.me...

Leadership may be defined in part as a process of influence.
Strangely, as I was searching for definitions of leadership I saw this list of leadership synonyms on Dictionary.com: authoritativeness, influence, command, effectiveness; sway, clout (emphasis mine).
However, many may know of another spelling: Klout with a “K”
Klout defines itself as the arbiter of social media influence. In their words, they provide The Standard for Influence. When the company recently unleashed their new algorithm, many people in social media saw their scores radically drop. For those schooled on this “credibility” framework, it was disorienting or irritating...
I use Tweetadder for this purpose.
Store as many tweets I want and tweet them when I want.
Retweet whatever accounts I like however often I like.
Automatically follow, unfollow and much more.
Results are awesome and there are no monthly fees like in other apps..
