Welcome to the third instalment of Receptional’s Top 50 SEO Bloggers of 2011 countdown. As search engine optimisation consultants ourselves, we’ve decided to bring you a countdown of the top SEO bloggers of the year, ranked by their Klout score.

We chose this methodology, as we wanted to highlight those who had spent the time building their own personal influence within the industry. The scores, along with links were collated on the 4^th November 2011.

Be sure to check out the first and second posts first, but without further ado, here are positions 30 to 21 of the Top SEO Bloggers of 2011. Enjoy!
