How to be a Campaign Blogger

A few days ago, Pinyo posted “The Seven Deadly Sins of Blogging”. It is a pretty good primer for folks getting ready to start a campaign blog. I would also point you to EchoDitto’s “Best Practices for Being a Successful Blogger”.

The thing that is most difficult for campaign blogs to get right is the “voice”. If you are just going to post press releases, call it a “news” page. Please.

Go read.

    Thanks for the shout out. We’ve been trying to find some time to update the best practices sheet to include some other juicey tidbits that everyone should know. Unfortunately (or fortunately…), we’ve had too much work to find the time. It certainly remains a great starting point for campaigns, nonprofits and businesses. Anything you would add to it?
