  • MoneyTransfers.com inserted each included entrepreneur’s name into the Buzzsumo database to identify how many articles were published about that respective entrepreneur.
  • The time period for the research was September 2020 to August 2021.
  • MoneyTransfers.com did take into account the different ways in which online articles are published, with some articles opting to use only the surname of an entrepreneur in their article or an abbreviated version of an entrepreneur’s name in their article e.g. ‘Elon Musk’, ‘Musk’ and ‘E Musk’ (all variations of the same name).
  • The figures for the number of online articles published for each entrepreneur in the top 10 list are all estimates/approximates and accounts for online articles from around the world published from September 2020 to August 2021.
