This is the first list of Angel Investor blogs.
For a few years now, I have wondered why there aren’t more blogs written by angel investors.
One of the reasons I’ve been perplexed by the scarcity of angel investor bloggers is because I believe angels are more important to entrepreneurs, and the economy, than traditional Venture Capital investors.
Angels invest about the same amount of capital each year as VCs, but angels invest in 27 times more startups. It’s because angel investors provide this critical early stage capital, and are involved in so many more young companies, that I believe they are more important to entrepreneurs, and the economy, than traditional VC funds.
I’ve blended two rankings - the number of Google Reader subscribers (like the VC list) and the Alexa rank (smaller is better). Rankings are from June 17, 2009.
Please help me complete and update this list. If you know of an angel investor blog that should be included, submit a comment below or send me an email. Thanks for your help on this resource.
