Go Ahead, Be A Blog Donor |
|
BLOGS are here to stay. It is no longer a matter of debate.
“It’s not a fad. Blogging is a new form of [citizen] journalism
and a growing industry. Now, it is not uncommon to see magazines,
especially the tech ones like PC Magazine and Electronic Gaming,
retain their on-line component,” says Jayvee Fernandez, founder
and publisher services director of Blogbank, a local advertising
network that aggregates more than 350 Philippine blogs and markets
them as ad space to various clients.
The business model of Blogbank is simple: by
having a number of blogs that talk about a spectrum of topics
ranging from mothering to tech to food under its wing, it can
promote these blogs to advertisers and use them as platforms to
launch word-of-mouth campaigns amongst its target publics.
