I believe hyperlocal blogging is a major growth area.

I believe local blogs will grow because more people will become comfortable and familiar with blogging itself, and will naturally start to write about what they know: their neighborhood, hometown, the city in which they live, and the things they see and do there.

I believe local blogs will grow because small business owners will continue to adopt blogs as a tool for connecting with customers and prospects, especially in their immediate geographic area.

Do You Have Any Local Blogs?

I own 2 hyperlocal blogs, one is on my birth city (and the most beautiful place on Earth) Chicago, and the other covers my current residence, the tiny town of Winona MS. One needs a major overhaul, and the latter is new, not yet developed.

Reader Question
