Where to go when you hit a dry patch

1st September 2009 by Mike Rawlins

It is important that your hyperlocal site is updated regularly so people will come back and visit.  Don’t fall in to the trap of publishing for the sake of publishing as your quality will reduce and you may turn your visitors away.

There are several resources where you can look for ideas for articles to publish on your site.  Depending on your site and the type of content you normally publish some of the ideas below may help you.

Events listings – Look for local events to promote or to report on.

Hold The Front Page has a Story Ideas page which gets update reasonably regularly, using this may give you some ideas for content.

I look after the technical side of things at Talk About Local.
Away from Talk About Local I take photos, fly my quadcopter and walk my two Beagles.
If I'm not doing any of the above then you'll find me volunteering at my local RNLI station as a press officer.
