What is PeekScore?: PeekScore is a rank from 1 to 10, assigned to every person. The higher someone’s score, the “more important” they are on the web. In calculating your PeekScore and updating it often, PeekYou takes into account your known presence and activity on the Internet, including but not limited to; your blogging, participation in social networks, the number of your friends, followers, or readers, the amount of web content you create, and your prominence in the news. For first time visitors a more in-depth explanation of what the PeekScore is, and how to increase your own, can be found by clicking through here.
Any one of the names below will grant you millions upon millions of hits on most of the major web search engines, and each of the men featured on this list has millions of followers on Twitter and/or Facebook, and often both. At this moment in time, these are the ten individual athletes making the greatest impacts here in cyberspace. We are surprised and excited to see that the list is so diverse in terms of the nations included (if not in terms of the sports represented, with soccer and basketball dominating, tennis coming up the rear, and cricket making a somewhat unexpected appearance).
Given the enormous global fame of the folks on this list, a large portion of them are currently graded with our ultimate PeekScore of 10. The 10 is a rare score, but this is a rare bunch of global super-celebrities. While very slight, there is a teensy bit of wiggle room near the ceiling of our digital footprint scoring scale. The order these athletes are listed in below is accurate, and as a result, in this case the story comes from the rankings more so than the scores themselves.
