This list of two dozen targets is a roll-up of cloud targets you already know — and perhaps a few you don’t — as well as Google/Alphabet beat reporters in Tier 1. Hope you find it helpful.
We came up with 19 cloud targets this time. We omitted infrastructure/devops folks. We’ll be scrubbing those lists soon. Remember, we list our cheat sheets in descending order of reach, based on audience size as reported by Similarweb.
Here’s a rare cheat sheet on channel reporters, specifically those who cover cloud and SaaS. Other than CRN’s, the audiences are small. Niche is perhaps a better word.
Here are 13 experts who turn up quoted in the cloud coverage you seek. A few blog or contribute to media brands. We tried including names you might not be familiar with. Who are we missing?
We decided to break out our AWS cheat sheets along the lines of the obvious and less obvious. Even then, our lists might be missing your faves. We predicated our choices based on the volume of copy they produce, as measured by our friends at IT Database/Tech News.
For some reason we’ve managed not to offer cheat sheets on key tech categories, so as the summer progresses we’re going to fix that. Let’s get started with a list of 20 AWS reporters — the more obvious ones, who write frequently. Watch for our list of 20 AWS reporters who might not be so top-of-mind.
“Cloud” is pretty much a generic descriptor these days. For tech PR, a vertical context is more useful. Here we share a list of 30 cloud-minded reporters in the fields of healthcare, financial services and government. Names current as of June 2018.
For the final installment of our six-part deep-dive, we’re going by the numbers. Which are the publications that deliver the most coverage of the four major “horizontal” security markets — AI, IoT, cloud and autonomous. Data culled from IT Database.
