Recognitions, Guest posts other updates

This post shares a few recent recognition, a list of my guest posts at other blogs and few other random updates:

Recently I was given a mention in 3 independent websites in stories/features related to Travel Blogging

1. Myoksha Top Travel Bloggers in India

This survey lists me among other well known travel bloggers in India.

2. Social Beat Top lifestyle bloggers in Chennai

Social Beat, a social media consultancy, listed me along with few other popular bloggers in Chennai. Check the list here

3. Top travel bloggers and what makes them tick by Travelfriends

Got a mention in travelfriendz.com's compilation of "Top travel bloggers and what makes them tick"

While the above sounds like lots of recognition, I wish to remind you of popular travel blogger Nisha Jha’s opinion here: She feels that some of these recognition from hitherto unknown/lesser websites/agencies are an attempt to gain publicity for themselves by tagging popular people. (You recognize someone as top blogger, that person goes all around drumming the recognition, in turn giving free limelight and publicity to the website/agency that announced the top blogger list). This could be true, I am not denying it. However above recognition/mentions have come unsolicited and without any commitment on my part to promote/return the favor or do anything that I don’t want to do. I would have loved to begin with recognition directly from Nat Geo and BBC, but the probability of that happening is near zero, so I am accepting few appreciations that came my way. I leave it to my readers to decide how seriously they want to take these recognition or how worthy I am for these appreciations or how credible are the organizations that issued the list.
