In July I put out a notice that I was looking for some partners to come blog with me at Small Business Branding (SBB). I can now report back to you that six new bloggers have just begun contributing regular content to SmallBusinessBranding.com, which is a fantastic result.
I originally advertised for two partners but since quite a range of people applied I thought it would be great to see if SBB could become a fantastic community blog with a range of writers all writing about two articles per week. With six authors you can now expect DAILY content on SBB – and quite a range too since the authors all come from varied backgrounds.
You can read the announcement I made on SBB about the new authors if you want more info.
If you haven’t already done so, I suggest you add the SBB RSS Feed to your favorite feedreader or go and bookmark http://www.smallbusinessbranding.com.
When do they start
Right now – the first articles are going live from yesterday.
That is really exciting Yaro. Congratulations. I’ll check out SBB more often.
I am a loser. I am just an entrepreneurial failure. I have been losing money every day. Loser loser loser.
This is a interesting concept of community blogging. I am curious what sort of governance you are going to use in order to validate the validity of the content now that you won’t be posting all of it?
If the new bloggers prove themselves the branding at SBB will no longer be Yaro Starak’s blog and instead will become the responsibility of every blogger. The design will change to reflect this. So to answer your question – each blogger is responsible for their own content.
Sounds like all blogs will need to hire several bloggers to get a good foot hold on the net.
I need several of those bloggers for myself.
Good move Yaro! Nielsen NetRatings has released their findings on the top 10 fastest growing web brands. Leading are several “user-generated content†sites; which SBB is becoming.
During the past few months, I researched topics related to user-generated content and prepared a few posts that might interest your blog readers:
Your blog is getting better and better every time I stop by for a visit – great job!
