Seemingly against all odds, two experienced entrepreneurs are launching Meteor, a publication about how AI, blockchain and Web3 technologies will transform just about all things digital.
This is the second installment of the SWMS-Semrush Top 15 Index, designed to reveal the 15 most widely-read articles in a given publication over a given month.
We came up with a dozen for you, though the audiences for their titles are tiny — the biggest one was 1.5M UVM. Still, it’s a specialized field and it’s the targeting that matters.

Miraculously, we came up with 14 publications that ran infographics in recent months. In rare cases, the listed publication wrote a piece about an infographic — and linked to it — but did not actually publish it. The vast majority of the links below reveal the infog directly.

Here’s a list of 11 targets who have covered intellectual property topics. It’s fairly diverse — some big titles, many obscure. A lot of IP coverage comes in context with content types — music, images… and yes, some patent law in there, too.

Registration is now open for the ‘Bloomberg Tech’ F2F event, being held Jun. 4-5 in San Francisco. With the current early-bird discount, a ticket runs $1,500. There is no better way to build relationships with Bloomberg’s notoriously elusive tech reporters.
Well, for now it’s Jim Jordan… but such news illustrates the kind of world we seem to be headed for. Adweek has the details, subscription required.
No “predictions” post will appear on this site. That said, quite a number of subscribers have asked for a Zoom/MS Teams presentation on what 2025 will bring. A conversation is precisely the right tool for the job. After the election — and with AI transforming publishing and life — “2025” is best discussed among peers, not predicted. So if you’d like to have a confidential group exchange on what stands to unfold, and why, and how comms pros can come out on top in spite of it all, drop a line and we shall schedule something.
According to Adweek, Omnicom CEO John Wren and IPG CEO Philippe Krakowsky were in merger talks for eleven and a half months before the transaction was announced this week. Amazing that it didn’t leak.
Should PR pros stop visiting X, with all its lies and hate? It’s only going to get worse. Or are tidbits from targets too important to walk away from? Click here to watch tech edit vet David Strom and I disagree (at high speed) about this, as one compelling visual after another pops up on your screen. In 2025, SWMS will officially launch “SWMS Sound Thinking,” designed to be “argumentative insight in six minutes or less.” Each segment will explore a timely and controversial topic of interest to tech comms pros. This prototype runs 5:25. Hope you enjoy it — feedback vital and welcome! –Sam
New EIC Jamie Heller has asked her reporters to start going on camera — for the BI TikTok channel — to explain the big, deep-divey story they just published. Other publications do this — especially archival Fortune. BI is now on that too. Game on.
