Week 4 - Parades and Races

By
Services for Real Estate Pros

Tomorrow is the start of November and many relate that to Thanksgiving.  Trending topics include parades and races around your city.  Lots of 5K, marathons, walk-athons and runs for a cause are popping up in and around your area.

Research these community events and become an expert on them to share with your readers.  Do you know the best places to park or the parking rates?  Are pets allowed at the parade?  How about registration dates and race information?  Where is the best place for loved ones to cheer?  What types of charities are sponsoring the races? 

Each of these topics allow you to expand on them to include a whole lot of information for people.  Think about the things you yourself would want to know and then include that in your posts.  Maps are always good too.  If you need help with embedding one check out the University tab in the blue bar above.

Parades and Races are huge right now and it's your turn to make them your own.  As you continue to follow the weekly topics you will surely be known as the mayor of your community.

I'm off to hunt for the turkey parade!   I truly enjoy writing about local events and business - it's like being a roving reporter.

It's off to another holiday - Thanksgiving is my favorite because it is relaxing and doesn't involve more preparation than a great meal and cleaning the house :) Off to research local events.

Hyperlocal, neighborhood oriented content always gets the most reads on my blog.  That being said, I'm always wondering how effecitve it is in converting readers to clients.  I'm still doing it out of faith.

Hmm...I don't know about any parades in my area this month.  I think if I keep track of these inspiration state ideas and post about them myself I will find out a lot about my own local area that I never knew. -Kasey

Lots of good tips that I hadn't thought about before.  Gathering up the proper information before blogging is a good idea so you post is more informative.
