The state of local blogging (a website written through the eyes of the author about their own experiences, observations, opinions, etc.,) can indicate just how engaged our community is with our citizens, our surroundings and/or the business community. Lots of local bloggers mean there is excitement and interest in the town. Conversely, if a town has few bloggers, this can mean no one cares what is going on in their own community. What do you think the current local blog scene tells us about the Mountain Home area?
The Top 4 Local Mountain Home Area Blogs
1. The Bondyweb: Yeah, it's pretty unfair that I put my own blog in the top spot but who else can claim this spot.
2. Church and State in Idaho: (http://churchandstateidaho.blogspot.com/) This blog [will] covers issues both inside and outside of the Mountain Home area but has been on hiatus since late September 2011. I know the author/blogger and understand that school and family come first so I'm sure he'll be back writing some good stuff soon enough.
3. Stoecker Jewelers: (http://stoeckerjewelers.com/) A business website that is slowly coming together. Stoecker's are trying to create a business buzz with videos and stories. Take it from me, this blog will end up with some great “content” after the busy holiday season winds down.
4. EMPTY and OPEN.
Why is the number 4 Spot Empty?
- Because I cannot find any other active blogs.
- I could put the Mountain Home News blog in the #4 spot. But I choose not to because these bloggers are not really free to express their full and unbiased observations and opinions. They are “owned” by a company who rightfully thinks they need to control this content to protect their image.
Darn Near a Blank Canvas
So? Is it possible or even probable the people in Mountain Home don't have any unique opinions or observations? Maybe there aren't many business owners out there who want to share their new and exciting business projects? Maybe the people and business owners in and around Mountain Home feel they don't have the time?
The Mountain Home blogging scene is wide open for anyone to join. And yes, it does take a certain amount of time and energy to write a blog. If you think you have what it takes to express your observations, opinions or business news to the world, then ask me how to create some “local buzz” about yourself and Mountain Home.
Comments
I'm reasonably certain there are a few folks out there who have the desire and ambition to start blogging. Maybe you just don't have the knowhow? Drop me a line and we can discuss getting you on the road to putting you, your business and Mountain Home on “the virtual” map.
Thanks,
