New at 14 this month, ViralBlog. Sample quote: "As ViralBlogger I get offered so many “wanna be” virals. Most of these virals are cheap rubbish and not hilarious, horrifying or horny at all." It's a nice blog, perhaps I'll write a post about it soon.

An ↑ means a blog's traffic has gone up by 15% or more in the past month, and a ↓ means it's gone down 15%.
I’ve decided to take Knitware out of the chart as, even though it’s run by some people here at BBH, and is really good, it is shaping up to be more about the interface between brands and technology than about advertising.
Meanwhile Spinning Around, which is supposed to be about PR, seems to me to be mostly about advertising. So I’m putting them in.
UK means UK-based. Ad blog means ad blogs not marketing blogs, so that excludes Gapingvoid. Paul Colman is now a planner at W&K and has sadly ceased blogging. Russell Davies no longer blogs about advertising, although his Campaign column is just great, isn’t it? I'm only counting English language blogs.
If I've missed anyone out, please tell me and I'll put them in next time. The next chart will be end of June as I'm switching it to quarterly from now on.

Thank you kindly, Scamp.
How about wannabe ad blogs for those who are getting into the ad industry...eg. creative in london, freddie and holly, looking for ping and oh, us??? lol
And do we not get a tuesday tip this week?
rachel and debbie, yoou need scamps account details to get on that list, we havent got it yet, and well we cant afford to now, but one day we will, and then... :D
Thanks for mentioning us.. well try to keep you visiting us ;-)
Cheers
Igor
Just had a squizz and the link doesn't work to Spinning Around. Thought that I would mention ...
SWEET! Thanks Scamp!
I think AdGrads should make the list. :)
Fixed the link, thanks for pointing it out Wal.
Russell Davies is a lovely fella, but his column in Campaign is becoming increasingly boring and obvious.
Since when is David Reviews a blog?
Its a very good website as far as I was aware!
If I'm wrong please correct me.
The line between a website and a blog is becoming increasingly blurred.
But as David posts a new ad each day, and writes a commentary on it, I feel it should be in.
sigh i need to crack the states ;)
Agree with the thought about David Reviews - not a blog in my opinion. An online ad resource maybe, but not a user generated conversational blog. That is job surely - you have to register and pay etc.
damn, misssed out again - 841,627 would have got me in at 5. i have resorted to stealing your excellent nike observation to salve my bruised ego. all the best. g
I hope someday I can get my blog on this list
addeternal.blogspot.com
