Glen Allsop & Neil Patel will be favorite marketing guru’s. I love their style of work and depth of each and every article they write. Chris Guthuri is a new guy I never heard of, shall be sure to research on his work.

Yes Vivek, they both have very good writing style. Thanks for being here.
Kulwant Nagi recently posted..Top 15 Internet Marketing Gurus Changing People’s Lives
While the list is really good, it is sad to see that no Indians are in this list
It maybe that there are some Indian bloggers who are earning equal to them, but they are not vocal about it…..they should, in my opinion.
Chitraparna Sinha recently posted..Comparing Technology Gadgets Price in India and Abroad
Great point Chitraparna. It’s very sad for us that no Indian is in the list. They might be making money but they are not changing people’s lives.
Today I was discussing with one of my blogging partner that India is lacking in Authority Blogging. Hope scenario will change in coming 2-3 years. Jane Sheeba have already made great authority and people are loving her.
I am still waiting for some great bloggers from India. Thanks for expressing your thoughts.
Kulwant Nagi recently posted..Top 15 Internet Marketing Gurus Changing People’s Lives
Great compilation. I am sure this list will inspire many people (me included).
How could you miss out Chandu (chnadu.org) from the list?
I am sure he is the highest adsense earning Indian blogger at present.
Chitraparna, you have a point there too. The Indian Bloggers who are actually earning well are quiet because they probably wouldnt want the I Tax sleuths baying for their blood while the ones who are actually not earning well enough go about bragging about their feats.
Anyways, I dont fall in either of the two categories!!
Kudos to Kulwant for all the hard work that has gone into compiling this wonderful list!

Ambika I don’t know about the person whom you mentioned here.
Thanks for going through this article and appreciating my efforts.
Kulwant Nagi recently posted..Top 15 Internet Marketing Gurus Changing People’s Lives
Hey Ambika it is chandoo(dot)org and BTW he is not the highest Adsense earner there are many Indian Bloggers ahead of him, Varun Krishnan of Fonearena, Amit Agarwal of Labnol, and if we do research we might still get few. Tech Bloggers earn a lot when it comes to Adsense. Chandoo might get more revenue from his product sales but not from Adsense.

Kulwant, I think title of your e-Book ‘Blogging Domination’ is inspired from Michael Dunlop’s products na.

Kulwant Nagi,
Thanks for a job well done, especially for finding time to do an extensive research on bloggers. There are still some out there that were not mentioned. maybe we will need to have an addendum to this current list.
My desire is to surpass these guys someday.
I just noticed the irregularity in their social media followership pattern. Some are doing extremely well when it comes to Facebook fans but doing a little poorly with twitter. Vice versa.
