Become A Regular Guest Blogger.
Do you like to write? Have you ever considered trying your hand at blogging but have not had a platform that already has an audience?
Perhaps contributing to the Marina Chamber of Commerce community blog on a regular basis might be just for you.
Marina Chamber of Commerce Community Blog.
We believe it It is a great asset to the community (and to the local economy) to give others the platform they need to get the word out and share what they love about this town. With our new Marina Chamber of Commerce Community Blog, we give the community this tremendous new opportunity. We want to encourage experienced writers, aspiring journalists, and community bloggers to get on board.
We envision a community blog that not only allows our local business owners and community leaders to share news and announcements but that writers and bloggers can offer encouraging, inspiring, helpful and insightful articles on a regular basis.
We believe this will help foster community, communication, education and encourage a better local economy in the process.
A Variety of Categories And Topics.
Not sure what to write about? We plan on having a wide variety of categories to write about, and we are still open to suggestions. This does not have to be related to businesses alone. After all, our website strategy is to be more of a travel destination website promoting visitors to the Monterey Area (and locals from other towns) to “Visit Monterey. Stay in Marina.”
Here are just a few of the types of topics that I think will do well on this blog:
- Tourism & travel destination
- Favorite places
- Parks
- Recreation
- Things to do
- Events
- Attractions
- Homeowner tips
- How to engage in community
- City works
- News (encouraging and positive news)
- Resources
- Featured businesses
- Featured non-profits
- Featured restaurants
- And so much more.
Again our goal is to promote all the wonderful things we love about this town.
The Benefits of Guest Blogging
With guest blogging on a multi-author blog like ours, you can quickly get yourself associated with other top bloggers building your authority on the topics you write about. Guest blogging can also lead to greater opportunities that go beyond writing posts.
Our target audience is pretty wide, and your posts will be exposed to a greater audience than perhaps a smaller niche blog focusing on only one particular topic or industry. Another significant advantage of guest blogging for us is that it helps build your brand and credibility.
We allow writers to submit a bio and/or their social media profile URLs to be published at the end of the post. These links can help drive referral traffic and boost organic search rankings, resulting in better search visibility for the author’s website.
Some blogs expect you to have the voice of the company’s brand. We prefer that you have your voice. We want you to feel free to show off who you are and we hope that shines through in your posts.
