If you asked me to name the top female IMers (in no particular order).... Tiff Dow, Maria Gudelis, Tina Williams Holly Cotter, Lisa Gergets, Kim Roach, Rachel Rofe, Jamie Mintun and Jenn Dize jump to mind.

And don't forget about: Amy Bass, Christy Knowlton, Edna Melendez, Jess Coolbaugh & Leanne King.

Thanks so much for including me in this list John! I usually keep my IM stuff a bit quieter since I have such a big mouth in the Offline Consulting but just working on getting my 3 teens girls rocking making some $$$ online now--got love the online stuff--no clients to deal with!

I have to chime in here though and agree with Willie Crawford: Lynn Terry and Rosilind Gardner are top on my list with Kim Roach right up there (new product is awesome). Tiffany Dow and Nicole Dean are just great too!

These women know there stuff and do it with the KLT Factor front and center --that's why I have my girls even doing their programs!

Good luck with your project--will look for it when it comes out!

Tina, KLT Coach

I'll pick 2 people that are outside of the typical IM world. Andy Jenkin's old business partner Audrey Kerwood knows or stuff. Also, Shirley Tan of American Bridal does as well. Both were in stompernet and built huge e-commerce businesses. I believe Shirley's was 20M per year before selling it.

Those are ladies that have succeeded quite a bit in the "real world' of IM.

Thank you for the mentions above.

There's a large number of very talented and successful people rightly mentioned in this thread.

People involved themselves in the "IM advice" niche with products and/or services, of course, tend to become much better known than others. Many other women (just like many men) who are hugely successful internet marketers remain completely unknown, and some of them even totally anonymous online. And in that sense, the answer to the OP is (as Steve would say!) "who knows?"

Being female myself, I've felt somewhat intimidated at times that there don't seem to be many women making themselves known in the IM world (although granted, I never exactly searched for them). The only ones I really could think of prior to this thread were Angela Edwards and Jennifer Ledbetter, so seeing all these successful women in IM listed out here is really encouraging! It doesn't make a huge difference in the end, but I would enjoy hearing some thoughts on IM from a female perspective more often. Thanks.

  Top female marketer ... I'd say Mary Ellen Tribby, she has her critics because of her aggressive style of marketing, but I totally understand her ruthless marketing having worked in direct mail myself many years ago.
  
  But she is well known though.
  
  Of the lesser known internet marketers there are many talented ladies, many have already been listed on this thread.
  
  On this forum, I'd say Kim Roach (knowledgeable) and Alexa Smith (genius) would both be good interviews.

Carrie Wilkerson rocks!

Also, Alexandria Brown (AliBrown.com) and Sheri McConnell of the Smart Women's Institute of Entrepreneurial Learning (SmartWomenInstitute.com)

Sheri McConnell is former founder and CEO of the National Association of Women Writers which she merged into SWI earlier this year.

I'm very much a do-it-yourself-er and so I've primarily bought infoproducts (digital and physical). But earlier this year, I decided to get coaching (for the first time ever) and chose Sheri as my mentor. I was HUGELY impressed and just can't say enough good things about her.

She also co-published my book under the Smart Women imprint.

If you gals are looking for a mentor, you can't do better than Sheri McConnell. She's on a mission to empower women to be financially independent because she believes that 1) being financially independent is very healthy for a woman and 2) when you empower a woman to be financially independent, you empower many generations to come.

You can check her out on Facebook at Welcome to Facebook

I know that a lot of people think "Internet Marketing" and driving traffic to a clickbank affiliate page is the only thing that comes to mind. There's much more to it than that.

When you talk about the TOP female internet marketers, the list should look more like this...

Ariana Huffington - Huffington Post (how does she get left out???)
Catrina Fake - Flickr
Elaine Wherry - Meebo
IJustine - Blogger
Michelle Malkin - Blogger

Oh yeah, and Kevin Rose - Digg (that's a joke...sort of.)
