Publicity

I really think that the Thanet Blog List could be big. There's so many great sites out there that have something for everyone, and there are so many that people don't know about.

I'd really like to promote the site and this is where you come in. I've made new 'badges' to put on your sites declaring your membership of the TBL, and when the new site is up I'll let you know how to do this (it's a simple case of putting some code in your template). Of course you don't have to but I want this site to be BIG!

I think it's also be worth getting some info in the local papers etc. I know there are a lot of bloggers out there in the local area who don't know about this site and who would like to become part of it.

What do you think?

Does anyone know how to go about this and is willing to help me?

Revamp Update

Last month I mentioned that the Thanet Blog List would be getting a much needed revamp and several of you commented on the post giving me some input into what you wanted.

I've been working on the new site over the weekend and am quite happy with it although there are a few things to tinker with before we 'go live'.

I still have to import all the posts and comments on this blogger site (if I can?!) and then I'll make the switchover.

There's been a few changes to the mission statement which now reads as:

The Thanet Blog List (TBL) is intended to be a list of all bloggers who live in Thanet, and will also include links to blogs with a connection to Thanet. There will be no attempt to decide whether a blog has appropriate or inappropriate content other than whether it complies with the previous statement. This listing takes no responsibility for the content of the blogs listed.

This should hopefully clear up a few things

Also added are categories so that it's easy for visitors to view blogs about certain subjects e.g. each blog listing will be tagged e.g Ramsgate, Politics, Humour.

I've also added a 'request' form on the site so that it's easier to get listed so there's no need to comment or email in order to get my attention. Simply fill in the form and press 'submit' and the info will be with me straight away.

There's still a few things to get sorted with knowing when blogs are updated, but this should be resolved pretty easily.
