Klout Gives Serious Perks To Facebook Fans

Klout, the indicator of online influence, now allows brands to connect with fans on their Facebook pages, by giving perks to those with high scores. Some examples of previous perks include Universal Pictures inviting entertainment influencers to an advance screening of The Adjustment Bureau and Hewlett Packard offering influencers a HP laptop loaded with top films from the Cinequest festival. Klout’s co-founder, Joe Fernandez, said:

Every individual now has a network value based on their ability to leverage word of mouth and social media to influence their network and spread the word about a product or service.

On their website, you can see a full list of all your Twitter followers and Facebook friends, to compare who has the most Klout. There is also a Klout Stars series, which highlights top scorers who share tips on how to increase your influence online.
