Klout? Is That A New Lipstick Color?

Well Hello my Dear Friend... Happy to have you here!  Come in, sit... make yourself comfy... I’ve had several requests over the past few months from new Mommy bloggers wanting me to explain some of the different social media sites that are online and if any of them are worth using to help with their blogging presence.  Hmmm... I think I need to fill our cups right about...      NOW!

There are sooo many social media sites that I don’t even know where to begin... kind of like when I’m at the cosmetic counter(s) at Nordstrom’s and sitting in front of me are at least 100 different shades of lipsticks and that’s just one brand and right across is another... What?  I’m doing it again?  But I’m a lipstick fiend!!  Doesn’t social media and lipstick sound the same?  Oh, all right... 

Social sites, lipsticks, social sites... hmmmph!  Yes, yes, I’m starting... I’ll cover one at a time and today’s post I’ll start with a site you may have heard of, but maybe not so much, Klout.  Have you heard of it my Dear?  Yes, no, it’s always good to have some kind of knowledge about the different sites.  I say some kind, because Darling, that’s about all you’ll get out of this MILF! 

Klout is an online sheesh Darling, of course everything is online! rating site that rates your online influence.  Did that make sense?  That made about as much sense as blue eyeshadow and bright red lipstick... none at all!  HA!  Okay, back to my nonsense explanation about Klout... The scale is from 1- 100, 100 being the very tops and if you are the very tops,  it means you live online 24 hours a day and have no life which would be horrible because than you would never be able to buy more lipsticks EVER!  I mean, me buy more lipsticks... buy more lipsticks?  Gee, mention lipsticks and I start getting fidgety... now, hurry hurry... lipsticks are calling me...

So how does your Klout score go up Caffe?  I have no idea Darling!  lol  I’m serious!  Some little gnome comes out of Googleland and deems you Klout worthy and then your score goes up... Like I said Darling, it’s all in how much time you spend online and interacting with others, that I do know.  Oh, one more thing, if people like you, they give you what’s called a K+ in whatever topic that you’re influential about.  And of course I’m most influential about being a MILF and a lipstick fiend and does Klout have that as a topic?  NOoo!  Hmmmph...

Is Klout worth using as a Mommy blogger?  Well it depends my Dear... if you plan on monetizing your blog, then becoming a member of Klout would probably be a good choice especially if you’re trying to make a presence for yourself online.  There are businesses that actually take a looksy to see if you have a Klout score if they plan on doing business with you.  It’s not an end all if you choose not to become a member, but it does let future prospects know what kind of influence you have online in a round about way.  Round about way?  Yes, round about, because not everyone uses Klout.

So there you have it... short cut 101, kind of sort of explanation of Klout by Caffe... better than reading the whole darn TOS page!  Next up... Which lipstick color would be best when visiting Facebook... HA!  Made you look twice... Have a FABulous Day my Darling Friend!  Until next time... Ta Ta!
