List of Top Online Brands


Each quarter, General Sentiment releases its “Top Global Brands Report,” which ranks brands based on the dollar value of their online “buzz.”

What does that mean exactly?

General Sentiment measures these brands based on two criteria: impact value and perception value.

Impact value measures all online mentions of the brands and places a value on the overall level of discussion and exposure for the brand. Perception value measures the positive, negative, and neutral mentions of the brand.

Now that we’re caught up, here are the top 20 brands from the first quarter and the overall dollar amount of their “buzz”:

1. Apple - $952, 303
