Now your Instagram photos will play a role in your Klout score. Klout has allowed users to connect their Instagram account to Klout for some time, however, those photos did not play a role in a person’s overall score.
Now those photos will influence your score, and your most popular pictures will appear in the Klout Moments section of your Klout profile.
In addition, Klout announced Thursday that it has made Bing a Klout partner.
Klout initially announced a partnership with Bing last September, which brought Klout scores to Bing search results. Now that relationship is going a step further, with the ability for users to connect their Klout account to Bing.
Bing search data is going to start to be integrated into Klout’s algorithm, and eventually search results will play a role in someone’s Klout score.
Bing will also now display Klout scores for high-profile influencers within search results. So, if you’re searching for a particular individual you can see at a glance not only their score, but also what they’re influential in right from the search results page.
