This is a long overdue post. I have a little post that got one little comment....yet is making an impact in my community and in the way I blog in general. Last week I got confirmation that it was working.
I managed to get out of the house and hit the local Taco Tuesday with the ladies of Mission Viejo....been a long time since I had the time. I was surprised when an acquaintance came up to me to talk about an Active Rain post. What?
She said that she was referred to a post I wrote by a friend of hers when she was looking for local election results. The day after the elections, I had a hard time finding information about this myself....so I blogged about it. A simple blog with results.
She in turn had suggested it to others and made a point of mentioning that I was a Realtor®....great word of mouth advertising.
What's more.....
I pulled up the statistics for that post and there were 1245 clicks. ONE comment. This post was never written for comments, it was written to serve my city and that's exactly what it did. I found myself the topic of conversation that Tuesday....they were impressed that I had blogged about things the community was interested in....service!
What it reinforced is that if I'm asking the questions or looking for the information...others are too. I want to fill that need. So if our local boy, Mark Sanchez wins today with the Jets....expect another blog post from me.
