Jason Falls at Social Media Explorer posted last week about his top 10 RSS feeds to read regularly. This is my list of top 10 marketing blogs to read either by RSS or online. They are not in any priority order.

Copyblogger bills itself as copywriting tips for online marketing. Brian Clark, the copyblogger himself, writes tight and in a compelling manner. His advice will make anyone a better writer.

Social Media Explorer is one of my favorites because Jason Falls clearly understands – and is able to clearly articulate – the rules of the ever evolving social marketing milieu. If you want to know how to utilize social media effectively without breaking the unwritten social media laws, read this blog.

Brains On Fire is all about the brand. Bloggers there write smart and tight.

Best Of The Web – from the Wall Street Journal – is not a marketing blog. But it is on my list anyway because James Taranto is such a great writer. His plays on words are superb.

Conversation Agent says it is about connecting people and ideas. Valeria Maltoni is the guiding force behind the blog. She understands brand engagement and how that translates into the digital world. Another smart writer. Seems to be a theme, huh?

Duct Tape Marketing is ostensibly about simple, effective small business marketing. However, any marketer can pick up great ideas from blogmeister John Jantsch.

Dosh Dosh is the brainchild of Maki, a Canadian philosophy student, who says the blog is about making money online. Yeah, it does that but it does so much more.

Mashable keeps me fully apprised of all the social networking news I need. They have it covered.

Marketing Profs and its blog Marketing Profs Daily Fix provide a one-two punch of marketing expertise. The mothership shares the expertise of guest marketers in long form and the blog gives you pithier snippets of marketing goodness.

Publicity Hound is all about PR. Joan Stewart, the hound herself, knows media relations inside and out.
