Members of the North Devon Business Alliance can use this website to write a blog or series of blogs to promote them selves and their websites.

What is a blog – type that into Google and it comes up with the following:-

• Noun – A Web site on which an individual or group of users record opinions, information, etc. on a regular basis.
• Verb -Add new material to or regularly update a blog.

So, the website www.ndba.org.uk is the noun although recently the regular basis has been a bit irregular and the verb is down to you!

Last year we had a series of awards, one of which was a blogging award, and I hear on the grapevine that we will be running awards for 2013 and yes, blogging is likely to be one of those awards again!

So, let’s get cracking and find something to blog about – we all have a blog in us – give it a go, it can be fun and it can also be rewarding – don’t forget to put a link at the end of the blog back to your own website, after all, you want to encourage people to go have a look!

 

Kevin Woodward is co-founder of the NDBA and writes blogs over at Devon Social Media, on his own website Multiheat, and of course here at NDBA!
