I just read a post by Valeria Maltoni (Conversation Agent — she also writes for the Fast Company Expert blog and MarketingProfs’ DailyFix) that points to yet another PR blog ranking list – The 20 PR PowerWomen. It’s actually not its own ranking, but rather a sub-list that Kami Huyse (Communication Overtones) created from ToddAnd’s Power150 list.

According to Kami, only 12 percent of the top 50 PR bloggers are women, and only 13 percent of the Power150 bloggers are women. So, she pulled those 20 blogs out into their own list to highlight and promote them. I’m not usually a fan of men vs. women lists, but this caught my eye because my personal experience in PR says that women outnumber men. So I was really surprised that within the PR blogging world, women don’t have a larger presence.

Valeria added to Kami’s list, and created what she calls the W-List – a compilation of the PR/marketing blogs owned by women. I’d say I regularly read about half of them. I’ve been clicking around the new-to-me sites, and while I’ve hit a few that aren’t as relevant to me, for the most part I’ve found them interesting (I just added another 10 feeds to my reader).

So, for your end-of-the-summer reading list, below you’ll find the complete (and growing) W-List from Valeria and Kami. I even added a few of my own suggestions to the end. Do you have any of your own favorites to add?
