Magntize – A Great Personal Brand Hub

magntize

That’s the phrase I’d use to describe Magntize – a “personal brand hub.” I have several blogs, and rarely know which one to use as my main link for a social profile or blog comment. Instead, I often leave my virtual business card in the form of my brandonacox.info site, powered by Magntize.

I love the fact that I’m in total control. I write my own bio, include my own links, and choose my own template. But what I really love is the tiny little aggregation feature which pulls in content from all of the links I’ve specified (the ones that produce feeds, that is).

What’s cooler is that if I use this as my domain on any blog that has CommentLuv enabled, it will spit out the top piece of content, whatever it is, as my most recent post to display. I also like that it spits out a nice vcard download so people can add my info to their address books, which makes me reachable – a part of the brand I’m attempting to build.

I’ve found the service extremely easy to use and highly recommend it!

Disclosure: I am receiving no financial benefit from this post/recommendation, but was offered a sneak peak at a premium account. I just really like the service!!

    I havent tried magntize yet, looks like a very good platform though. I like how its easy to make a personal brand on it, far better than blogger.

  19. Liane says:

    I see it more as an aggregator rather than an online “business card”. Either way works great though ;)

  22. Thanks for the writeup Brandon! I’m pumped you like the lifestream section. That’s probably my favorite part too.

  23. Keith from Superior Fence Products says:

    I can see how this would be helpful for someone with multiple sites (I had 5+ last year but sold all them to concentrate on one a few months ago).

    I will certainly look at it, but am not sure how useful it would be for me.

    Thanks
