Three Thoughts On Local Blogging
I wrote a longer piece on the OnBlog recently about this topic, but in light of this and this, I thought it worth revisiting the issue in plainer language and shorter sentences.
1. If your “local blog” is of little interest to people who actually live in your “locale”, then guess what? It ain’t a local blog. All the twittering and facebooking and so on will not change this essential fact. A “local blog” is defined by who reads it.
2. If your “local blog” exists simply to drive leads to your brokerage business, then it ain’t a local blog. It’s a brochure. That isn’t a bad thing in and of itself, but treat it as a brochure.
3. If you are a true local blogger, then your blog will not be about real estate. It will be about your town.
That is all.
