Starcount shows Xiaxue is not the No 1 Blogger in Singapore

Xiaxue maybe the perceived blogger queen in Singapore, it turned out that she may not be the No 1 Blogger in Singapore.

According to Starcount, a new web service that charts popularity of brands, websites, bloggers, etc on social media, the title of No 1 Blogger in Singapore goes to Merry Rina.



Starcount ranks social media stars, brands, and the likes based on their quantitative results from social networks. 

Though Xiaxue has more Facebook fans then Merry Rina (97,806 vs 52,622), Merry Rina has more followers on Twitter (398,592 vs 106,706). 

However, Xiaxue does edge out Merry Rina in Youtube views as the latter does not have a Youtube account. 

As such, Merry Rina Tweeter followers gives her the edge over Xiaxue. 

It is indeed a numbers game. 

Starcount is releasing the first phrase of its campaign where it looks to get web visitors to get discover the site and other unknowns from its charts.

For example, did you know that Leon Jay Williams is the All time most popular Singapore celebrity in social media beating Mediacorp actress Fann Wong.


In the prelaunch for bloggers, Starcount announced that it is going to launch the Social Star Awards, to be held in Singapore, which the organisers will want it to be the "Oscars" of social media. 

Unlike the Oscars, the Social Star awards will be judged by fans.

In addition, the most popular fan will be given a chance to fly over to Singapore to hand over the award to the most popular celebrity.

For example, if Lady Gaga was awarded the most popular celebrity in social media, her top fan would be handing her the award. 

Head over to Starcount and start building your own popularity charts in social media. 

Will you be surprised by the results or discover new mentions in social media that will interest you?

Singapore radio personality in "hot soup" for reporting train delays based on Tweets?

Update - Hossan Leong has commented on this post to say " I'm not in trouble pls don't blow this out of proportion. Let it rest. It's getting silly. Thank you for your love and concern and I apologize for any misunderstanding." ~  Hossan Leong. Hossan Leong, a Singapore radio personality for The Gold Breakfast Show on Gold 90.5, was censured today for reporting on train delays on the Circle Line because he based the information on Tweets, rather than waiting for the official reports from the Circle Line operator, SMRT.  It is, however, unknown if the "warning" came from Mediacorp producers or SMRT. Tweeted Hossan Leong ,  OK...I reported it on air and now I'm getting into trouble for it?? The CC line is DOWN rite? I did nothing wrong rite? The SMRT Circle Line was reported to be down this morning during peak hours and started as early as 7am. However, local news only received official statement was received by the mainstream media at about 9...

DBS Bank – One Tweet too little too late.

(Updated post - DBS apologise with the 3Rs – Will social media bite? ) It was the bluest Monday for DBS/POS Bank in its entire banking history when more than 1000 of their ATM and online banking services were taken offline due to a software upgrade an outage (PR announced that it was down due to software upgrade, but the outsourcer, IBM, later claimed it was an outage). So on that Monday, DBS decided to sign up onto Twitter and post a 140 characters one-liner onto Twitter to post a one liner to inform the Twitterverse of the down time. Everybody knows that if you just create a new account on Twitter, you would start off with 0 friends. How would you be able to inform the Twitterverse if you start with 0 friends? DBS Bank did something smart to insert the #dbs and #posb and that probably drew some attention to this account. However, the effectiveness of the tweet was lacking as it drew only 28 retweets. As of this posting, DBS Bank attracted 274 followers. A letter to T...

New field in SocialPR: Social Media Crisis Communications

I have been busy with family for the Lunar New Year week but it seem the Singapore blog-o-sphere was active, and is still is, about recently formed Association of Bloggers (Singapore), ABS for short. To cut a long story short, the announcement of ABS via mainstream media didn’t go down well with Singapore bloggers and in the end resulted in some speculation to why ABS was set-up in the first place. A post by the ABS president defending herself against a harsh criticism from a blogger added to the bad start and created even more speculation that ABS was set-up with an ulterior motive. A week later, some founding members of the pro-team started posting up notice of resignation on their blogs and this just added fuel to fire. Again, a story of ABS appeared in mainstream media and this lead to even more disgruntled bloggers asking why the president isn’t responding via her blog or the association’s blog. I also responded to a post about the ABS incident. You can catch a summary of...
