Yes! I got an instant 10 points boost. hahahaha. Laugh

How did your site do with the new Klout algorithm. It doesn't mean much, but it's still fun to get higher scores.

I got an email from Klout about the new algorithm right after reading this post. However, my score doesn't seem affected. I've been hovering around 44 for forever.

 I'm looking for editors, beta-readers, and some demographic research for my upcoming novel, Once Upon a Saturn Moon. If you like reading soft sci-fi thrillers, maybe with a touch of romance thrown in, you can find more information at http://seampublishing.com/once…..aturn-moon

Mine jumped about 13 points. I'm glad to see it go up since all my social media accounts are different – I was worried that it would be super low after the update.

I got a 12 point boost. Do you guys know if you can add multiple accounts with the same site (like more than 1 Facebook page or Twitter account)?

Their FAQ says you can't add multiple accounts from the same service… I'm hoping that changes at some point because I'd really like my fan pages to be included in my Klout score. :(

I got a 12 point boost although I suppose it doesn't mean much if almost everyone got a similar boost.  I still don't completely understand Klout, but I signed up for it a couple weeks ago since Wisebread uses it for their rankings.

I got a 10 point boost. But if everyone is up, does it really help? I'm not sure exactly why having a good klout score matters, with the except of the free car I got: http://sweatingthebigstuff.com…..-dwellers/

These are few and far between, so why check it obsessively? Do you think it measures social influence well?

I think I went up 10 points. I've never really understood Klout that much, but that's okay. I was so excited until I realized that everybody else's scores went up to, so I'm probably still in the same boat. Silly Klout. Smile

Heh heh, I guess it's kind of silly if everyone went up 10 points. Oh well, 54 still sounds a lot better than 44. Laugh

It is kind of funny considering that klout adjusted its score a few months ago that made my score drop 10 points or so. Now, it's back up again.

I jumped up about 10 or 12 I think. Has anybody, or does anybody know anybody who went down this time?

I got a boost as well! But it seems like a lot of people did too. I just hope it truly is more accurate. Would love to connect with you guys on Klout. Here is a link to my profile: http://klout.com/#/deaconhayes/
