How is "Bloghology" different from other advertising opportunities? Why provide a bloggingmagazine and new community platform?
"Bloghology" is unique by offering a range of approaches to advertising, within the context of a changing online world. More 'traditional styles of marketing and advertising have become less effective in recent times, with the fast growth and popularity of relatively new online 'web2.0' trends, including blogging at its core. This has also been described as social interactive media, which requires generating a two-way relationship, and greater transparency and trust between you and your customers that is: a 'softer' relationship, or conversational style of internet marketing, as opposed to traditional, hard advertising. Bloghology offers you both approaches via the Bloghology Magazine (printed and digital versions), and its related online and centralized network of sites. In this respect, four (4) "Bloghology" platforms are available to you for advertising, each of which offers its own unique benefits, including the: 1. Bloghology Magazine (Quarterly Printed Version) 2. B loghology Magazine (Monthly Animated Digitalized Version) 3. Main Online Bloghology Platform-Website, and the 4. NEW Blogging Community-Social Network This enables even greater exposure and interaction in promoting company brands, as follows:
1-2. THE BLOGHOLOGY MAGAZINE
The printed version of the Bloghology Magazine will be distributed to an audience of 40,000 readers per quarter, whilst the digital, online version is expected to have 100,000 copies distributed on a monthly basis to loyal subscribers. In every issue of the Magazine (and on the main online Bloghology website), bloggers will find the most interesting and current topics to help them succeed, including expert advice and interviews from successful entrepreneurs and pro-bloggers. Topics range from: "Make Money Blogging" to "Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) tips". Categories include Blogging news, lessons, interviews and reviews, with for example: blog design tips, comparisons of blogging platforms and editing software, guides for writing articles and content, goals, project management and planning needs, references to 'gadgets' and add-ons to expedite the blogging process, technical questions and answers, comparisons of blogging products, reviews of trends in the 'blogosphere' by looking at 'what's next in blogging', and tips/lessons to make money through online advertising ventures.
Printed Version:
In addition to distribution to subscribers on a quarterly basis, the Printed version of the Bloghology magazine will also be distributed via Trade Show Expos and other related Internet Conferences (the Bloghology team is conducting ongoing research on these events, with details and event planners for dates and trades shows coming soon). The magazine will also be distributed in newsagencies, kiosks, and other off-line venues.
Digital Version ( )
The digitalized and 3D, interactive online version of the Bloghology Magazine is essentially a different 'product' than the printed version (including different topics), and will be published on a monthly basis with 12 issues per year. It was first published for the BlogWorldExpo.com and New Media Conference on the 19th of September 2008. The first Digital edition of the Bloghology Magazine was read by 85,000 readers and this number is expected to continue increasing daily. The digital version of the Bloghology Magazine also provides additional and unique opportunities for advertisers, where for instance: It is more easily accessible for busy professionals on the run, or bloggers who may have less time to sit and read printed documents, especially if they also work a day job outside of their blogging endeavours (this is particularly important in this increasingly mobile age - hence, subscribers can instantly access and read the magazine from anywhere it is published on a monthly basis, resulting in more advertising opportunities on an ongoing basis; The software that powers the digital magazine is interactive and enables readers to directly search; and click through to your company's sites and products; Monthly subscriptions provide greater visibility and increased traffic and associated sales prospects; The digital version also enables multimedia style advertising, with video, audio, and other dynamic interactive features, which will be added as the Magazine grows;
Combined, both the printed and digital versions of the Bloghology Magazine provide a greater and synergistic value for advertisers and bloggers all round.
THE ONLINE PLATFORMS OF BLOGHOLOGY
