The following list of entrepreneurs that you’re about to see, has not been put in any specific order or any kind of ranking. I think they all of these blogs deserve an equal amount of respect in their own ways. Each blog has a different voice and a different point of view.

I think this is the beauty of blogging.

You can say what you want, and be who you really are. Some will probably say why don’t you have this or that blog on the list. Sorry this is my list and if you don’t like it sorry. Its mine, make your own.

I have to say…thanks to the internet, because without it there probably would not have been the opportunity for most of these blogger to shine. It really has created a beautiful way for the world to connect with people all over that have your same interest.

1. Gary Vaynerchuk: What can I say. If it wasn’t for this guy…I would not be here writing on my blog. I read his book at borders and went home and started a blog. I had been procastinating for one year. Gary has shown the world that anyone can be successful at blogging as long as they follow their passion. He wrote a book called crush it why now is the time to cash in on your passion. And he has two blogs; one for business and the other for his wine show.
2. Tim Ferriss: Most people know him for his book the 4 hour workweek…One book that really help me understand most of the assumptions that I had been brainwashed with for 20 years and got me to understand that you don’t need a million bucks to live like a millionaire. He’s a #1 in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and was also a BusinessWeek bestseller and Fast Company’s “Most Innovative Business People of 2007.
3. Darren Rowse: Probably the grandfather of blogging, that’s what I think sorry Darren. The guy is the face of blogging. He runs three blogs and has proved that you can really make more that a six-figure income typing your ass off. He has a top 100 technorati blog, is one of the co-founders of b5 media. He’s an inspiration to most of the top bloggers.
4. Yaro Starak: The guy use to have silly hair. If you read this Yaro I am serious. But I still think he’s the coolest guy in the blogosphere. He delivers quality content in every post that he writes. Pillar content is one of the main tips I can recall from studying his work. Known also for his blogmastermind mentor-ship and his membership sites he is someone I have major respect for online.
5. Shoemoney: Talk about the rags to riches story. I can remember finding him because of his famous 120k+ adsense check. Well known for blogging and marketing online. He’s made millions online and share a ton of wisdom with the bloggersphere.
6. John Chow: In the MMO (make money online) world, his names comes up first. Some will respect his tactics (me) some won’t. He has showed that anyone with enough passion and drive can make it happen. He makes over 40k per month I think that’s enough to get you a hot chocolate every now and then.
7. Pat Flynn: Where do I start. The guy is as human as human can be. He is the most transparent guy online, something hard to find online. He tell you how much he makes online every single month down to the penny. He only gives you good content. He’s always ready to tell you what he knows and how to do it.
8. Brian Clark: The face of Copyblogger, a blog about copywriting, which I knew nothing about before I got into it. I also know he’s created Thesis Theme which is used by a majority of well established blogs, because it makes it easy to customize.
9. Chris Garrett: He’s the co-author of the Problogger 2nd Edition with Darren Rowse. Most of the new media information and blogging advice I have learned here along with Darren.
10. Chris Brogan: I don’t know if I can say he’s the king of social media, but who cares is my blog…He’s the king. I’ve read both of his book trust agents and social media 101 and I recommend them to any new bloggger. Has a huge following on twitter, like most famous bloggers and you can probably find him doing a talk somewhere in the world right now.
11. Neil Patel: I think Neil has had I great influence because of his age. It made me think that if someone at such young age (24) could make it happen why can’t I. He’s start two successful companies kissmetrics and crazyegg and he’s helped large corporations such as AOL, General Motors, Hewlett-Packard and Viacom make more money from the web.
12. Sean Ogle: Even though he’s been blogging for a year. Sean was one of the first Location Independent bloggers that caught my attention. I really connected with him since I had a lot in common. Its really encouraging to see how someone can turn their lives 180 degrees in one year.
13. Maren Kate: Just reading her blog has taught me a lot in business and about it’s Okay to be an oddball. Maren run a blog and her location independent business from her laptop. And again she’s only 25!!
14. Chris Guillebeau: His blog The Art of Non-Conformity has connected with the way I see the world and business now. He has a goal to travel all the countries of the world before 35 which is awesome I think. He has release two great manifestos that I think anyone looking to change the world or just their career should read.
15. Michael Dunlop: What can you say? He’s only 18 and he’s already one of the most famous young entrepreneurs to listen to. He knows everyone and he knows what he’s talking about. His success with making money online makes any young kid jealous.
16. Rob Rammuny: If you though Michael was to young to be making a six figure income, think again. Rob Rammuny is only 16 and his success has only taking him 12 months to achieve. I admire his passion and hard work at such young age. Be careful in 2010-2011 we are already hearing a lot from him.
17. Steve Pavlina: He turned 9 dollars into an blog empire of 40k+ a month. His has one is one of the ugliest blog designs, I’ve ever seen but it’s prove that good content is king. His blog “Personal Development for Smart People” drives over two million views of month. His book also has been translated into different languages.
18. Leo Babauta: There’s a lot of habits that I had to give up when I started blogging. Zenhabits.net was one of the great productivity blogs that helped me get over most of my bad actions. Leo has had a great influence through his blog and his book The Power of Less.

I have plenty of other blogs that I visit, but the most influential bloggers when I first got started blogging about a year and a half a go were these. I thank them for a lot of the things I know about blogging now.

If you have a list that you would like to share, link to it in the comments section. I think the reason I found most of these people was thanks to other people having a list of bloggers that they like. Help other new bloggers find their most influential bloggers for 2010.
