Another Way to Get "Local" With Your Blog

Brought to you by the folks behind the Center for Citizen Media is Placeblogger. A new social network designed to bring together local focused blogging content at "the sidewalk level"
"Placeblogs are sometimes called "hyperlocal sites" because some of them focus on news events and items that cover a particular neighborhood in great detail -- and in particular, places that might be too physically small or sparsely populated to attract much traditional media coverage. Because of this, many people have associated them with the term "citizen journalism," or journalism done by non-journalists."
There is a submission category for Real Estate. I would urge any real estate pro with a blog to participate and take a look at the networking opportunities that exist in the site. Any chance you have to localize your blog traffic will improve your results tremendously.

Mike -

I did this earlier today for my blog, primarily due to the political nature of some of their submission guidelines. I agree that the focus on local is going to be what consumers are looking for - all real estate is local.

Couldn't agree more. There will be more and more opportunities as time goes by to get "hyper-local". I guess one thing that isn't going to change is the creation of new buzz phrases :)
