I keep an eye on my Klout score and watch for major shifts in score, one way or the other. They can sometimes indicate that I'm neglecting a network, or perhaps some of my recent activity is being better received. I recently noticed a 4 point uptick in my score and that is definitely out of the ordinary. I didn't see any major changes though in my online activity, nor did I find any evidence or announcements from Klout on algorithm changes, so the new score was a mystery. Until today.
Klout announced in an official blog post that Instagram activity is now impacting your Klout Score. You may have already connected your Instagram account, and the changes are being rolled out gradually so some, like me, may have already noticed a change.
