Anyone can publish a blog. We really encourage anyone in the community to publish something. No one has to "check" or "sign off" on the blog as long as it's of general relevance to our community. Some popular types of pieces are:
- Blogs (general thought-leadership pieces, personal stories etc)
- Interviews (interviewing big cheeses in the sector)
- Event Recaps (it can be really useful to do a write-up of events where you summarise what the speakers said, any highlights, share photos or Tweets, if the event was recorded then YouTube links, and if the speakers allow it, sharing links to slides too
- Adverts e.g. Giving details and spreading the news of new Campaigns or a soon-to-launch Hub
- Go to the main menu, and on the left-hand panel, select “Blog”
- Select “Create New Post” in the top right hand side
- Start typing! Create catchy titles, brilliant text and make use of the photos, galleries,
videos or dividers (icons at the bottom of the page), to make the blog itself more
attractive and colourful. Every blog does at least one picture
- When you’re finished, click in the top right
- Then select “Categories” and select both:
- What type of post (Blog, Interview or Event Recap)
- Your Hub
- If you’re Hub has not published a piece yet, “Create New Category” and create your own
Hub category. Remember to click save
- Once you’re happy with your blog, just click on “Publish” on the bottom right and hey
presto, it’s ready to go! You can go back and edit the blog at any time you want
- Remember to tweet out any of your blogs from your Hub Twitter accounts too! We’ll
make the best ones that month our blog of the month for our community-wide newsletter
