One of the ways to stay updated in your field is to read a lot and follow the most popular sites in your niche.
In this way, you will be able to find useful resources, read about news and discover trending topics to write about on your own blog.
Then I am sure you are already following your favorite websites, may be via RSS Feeds, or just bookmarking them and visiting the URL occasionally.
If you are in the internet marketing or blogging niche, there is a juicy new resource that you may want to check.
This new site is Bloggerscope, you can find new connections or even discover your next favorite blogs here!
What is Bloggerscope
Bloggerscope is an aggregator site with the most popular marketing and blogging posts, coming from the authority sites, like Social Media Examiner, Copyblogger, Quick Sprout or Socialmouths, just to mention a few ones.
In the first page, you will see the last posts, published in the time you have set – today, yesterday, last 3, 7 or 14 days.
You can sort the posts by date, shares or popularity.
See an example in the screenshot below, with the last post coming from NPI blog too (click to enlarge) :
If you sort the posts for popularity, you can check at first glance which are the articles that you do not want to miss.
That’s a great way to stay updated, even without investing a big part of your day.
You may decide to visit Bloggerscope once a day, or once a week. The site is pretty new, but it already includes most of the popular sites in the marketing and blogging niche.
Bloggerscope Top Blogs List
In the menu above of the site, if you switch from “Top Posts” to “Top Blogs”, you will have under your eyes the most popular sites, ranked depending on Alexa, Twitter followers, DA – Domain Authority, MR – MozRank and SA – Social authority.
You can see Problogger in the first page, Chris Brogan site, Viperchill, Kikolani,John Paul Aguiar and Reviewz N Tips of my friend Daniel Sharkov, among many others.
If you click on a blog name, you will be redirected to the last posts of this site, ordered with the metrics mentioned above. This is also a pretty fast way to check the last most popular posts of a particular blog you like or you follow.
This is once again a method to save time when you need to choose which articles to read.
You may see NoPassiveIncome posts gathered in the screenshot below :

October 22, 2013 at 9:25 amErik, awesome list man! Exactly what I have been looking for as I expand my blogging network.
I just found scoop.it yesterday. This is like scoop.it on steroids it seems to me.
Bookmarking and heading over now. What a neat way to meet friends, learn from the pros and grow your blogging audience.
Thanks for sharing!

There is always something new to learn and discover on the web, right? 😉
I have joined Scoop.it a couple of years ago, I have read about it at first on Ms.Ileane’s blog.
Good to know you found this article useful!

October 23, 2013 at 6:05 amBloggerscope is a GREAT place to discover content. I visit the site daily to catch up with my reading and also to discover interesting sites where I can connect with new bloggers via commenting.
I’d appreciate if Chris adds more categories other than blogging and marketing 🙂
Erik Emanuelli says
October 23, 2013 at 11:23 amI share with you the same usage of BloggerScope, Jane.
Other than reading the most popular posts in the marketing and blogging niche, I have found many sites I have never heard about.
Thanks for your comment here, really appreciated. 🙂

March 13, 2015 at 10:42 amI’ve been using BloggerScope for a long time, then stopped.
Recently I checked it out again, but it’s not working anymore… Did they shut down their project or hopefully working on improving it?
Would love to know, it was a great tool.
Erik Emanuelli says
March 13, 2015 at 2:50 pmHi Liudas,
I noticed that too, few weeks ago.
“Top posts” function is not working anymore,
I see “Top blogs” is still there.
I guess the project wasn’t profitable, if development stopped.
Thanks for visiting and commenting, Liudas.
