Top: Amazon is Klout's most social brand

The inaugural list, which was compiled using data from the Interbrand 2014 Best Global Brands Report and corresponding Klout scores, ranked Microsoft a close second followed by MTV, Google and Facebook.

Also making the top 10 was Intel, Nintendo, McDonald’s, eBay and Ford.

Katy Keim, CMO of Klout owner Lithium, said: “The Klout 50 salutes those brands that know social is part of their consumer’s everyday life and for effectively connecting and sharing experiences with them.

“However, this is also a wake up call for the brands that are not on the list to understand that without social they lose.”
