Klout has become an obsession for many as they try to increase their score which is supose to represent your social engagement with others. You can view my Klout profile by clicking here.

For a while when I first started with Klout my score was lingering around 20 -30 while others in my network where much higher. Then I decided to add all of my social networks to my profile. This quickly shot my score up which now holds steady at 50 or higher. While this is great, it really plays no part in really helping your business at all. Well so I thought…

Since I started with my Klout obsession I have found myself being more socially active online. Liking other posts, commenting on posts, adding quality information to my fan pages, tweeting more etc. Just doing these simple things has really taken my business to a new level. While Klout itself as a site has not increased my exposure what it has done is motivate me as a person to be more engaging with my customers and visitors. This in itself makes setting up your Klout account well worth it.
