What’s your web presence? Who do you influence?
“What is Klout?
Klout measures influence online. When you create content or engage, you impact others. Klout analyzes that impact to find your Klout Score, influential topics, and your influencers. Klout is the standard for influence. Top brands such as Disney, Audi, and Turner use Klout Perks to reach and engage influencers. Over 3,000 applications and partners use Klout data to display Klout Scores, prioritize based on Score or topics, and segment users.
What is the Klout Score?
The Klout Score measures influence on a scale of 1 to 100, with 100 being the most influential. Klout uses data from social networks in order to measure:
- How many people you influence (True Reach);
- How much you influence them (Amplification); and
- How influential they are (Network Score)
What is influence?
Influence is the ability to drive action. It happens in real-time and in a given topic. You influence others when you convince your friends to go see a movie, share your favorite YouTube video, or start a discussion about the upcoming election.

I had no idea you could use this for job interviews too! Well now, that makes it more of a useful tool. When I first signed up, I think I had a score of like 11 or something. I was all bummed out until I thought about people like Justin Beiber and Steve Martin. Now there are sme people with influence. I think I'm up to around 36 these days!!!
Do they tell you how to increase your Klout? I'm always a bit leery of Facebook apps.
