In a burst of curiosity a couple of years ago, I went exploring the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">internet</span> to learn more about design blogging phenominum. My passion for writing and supporting young creative talent gave me the enthusiasm to have a crack myself and <a href="http://www.studiohomecreative.com/">Studio Home Creative</a> was born. The site has slowly developed in its popularity as I have learnt more about the wonders of marketing on the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">internet</span> and the amazing power of blogging communities. <a href="http://www.studiohomecreative.com/"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">SHC</span> </a>was also an experiment in self promotion as a way to open up further opportunities for myself and my fledgling interior design business, <a href="http://studiohome.co.nz/">Studio Home</a>. Well. It worked. I now write for <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">numerous</span> online and hard copy publications and have found myself constantly motivating talented young artists to get cracking and create a blog. I have discovered however, that what comes naturally to me and gives me a kick (<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">ie</span>.blogging) does not hold the same excitement for others. Thus. <a href="http://www.neighbourhoodinc.blogspot.com/"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Neighbourhood</span> Inc.</a> is born.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEKlXqvuQ7ENnAs_zTL5sBSnbqz-kRtHSjgqCfwVpCf77001S6xCmICS1AiyzzltU84wNH0vMOIiWxzuz7DkF85jA47aLfIPILhyphenhyphendB7B9gYJMZ1qoG5FgFYR2c9ggg2ZlrW3x2heAZBvM/s1600-h/me+jan-pola.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 329px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEKlXqvuQ7ENnAs_zTL5sBSnbqz-kRtHSjgqCfwVpCf77001S6xCmICS1AiyzzltU84wNH0vMOIiWxzuz7DkF85jA47aLfIPILhyphenhyphendB7B9gYJMZ1qoG5FgFYR2c9ggg2ZlrW3x2heAZBvM/s400/me+jan-pola.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414911153200503170" border="0" /></a><br /></div></div>Juhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10429912868308845404noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8498035678935807502.post-78425738572964353142009-12-13T17:40:00.000-08:002009-12-15T00:07:32.897-08:00<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 130%;">"And why blog?" I hear you say??</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">Blogging is no longer the depressing domain of <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">emo</span> teenagers and their black eyeliner <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">obsession</span>. It is the most affordable and personable way to reach your <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">internet</span> savvy target market and improve your business's exposure to a massive potential client base and network with others in your field.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #999900; font-size: 130%;">A blog can compliment an existing website or be your sole home on the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">internet</span></span><span style="color: #666600;">.</span> It is easily <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">updated</span>, low cost and the perfect format to communicate the background, story and aims of your business. Use it to keep your customers (and new followers) informed with news, special offers, recent press, updates on location and products. You can create a culture around what you are trying to do by posting outside your immediate business with interesting links that may appeal to your readers, or keep it simple with contact details and basic updates.<br />
<br />
If this is <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">sounding</span> somewhat tempting, it should be...<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ffcc00; font-size: 130%;"><span style="color: #999900;">The </span><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" style="color: #999900;">internet</span><span style="color: #999900;"> age can not be ignored and whether you are an artist, small business owner, athlete, furniture </span></span><span style="color: #ffcc00; font-size: 130%;"><span style="color: #999900;">designer,</span></span><span style="color: #ffcc00; font-size: 130%;"><span style="color: #999900;"> boat builder or candle stick maker you have to be in (the </span><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" style="color: #999900;">internet</span><span style="color: #999900;">) to win!</span></span><br />
</div><br />
That is where <span style="font-size: 130%;">neighbourhood inc.</span> will get you started on the RIGHT foot and if you want, continue to hold your hand and keep you on track in the blogging wilderness.<br />
