Marketing my 10-month-old online news magazine is my weakest link.  I’d rather focus energies on story ideas, not tooting my horn. But I know that isn’t enough.  People won’t come to The Jefferson Park Hub if they don’t know about it.

My online news magazine/newspaper was recently promoted in the neighborhood newsletter, The Grapevine. You can read it at the organization’s website here. I noted the date of the publication on my Google Analytics account.  I am curious to see if the site sees an uptick in the number of viewers.

Another opportunity to get the word out is I plan on being a a regular contributor the quarterly newsletter. It’ll be a reprint of a past feature with a notice of where it came from. That’ll be a lazy way to get my site in front of the 1,000 people on the circ list.

I’ve posted a question on LinkedIn looking for other marketing techniques. I’ll follow up with any ideas that are floated.
