Noordhoek goes live on YORGOO Media

Noordhoek south of Cape Town has a new website! Bianca Gubalke publishes her Noordhoek blog on YORGOO Media, profiting from the features available for community building. The Atahualpa Theme is a nice solution for the site and Bianca’s configuration results in a sober, attractive and professional site.

Let’s see what YORGOO Media can do for a community such as Noordhoek.

Noordhoek

Located at the foot of Chapman’s Peak Noordhoek and the Noordhoek Valley is one of the preferred destinations around Cape Town. Rural atmosphere, the famous beach, charming accommodation make it an ideal place to go.

I am sure Bianca will share with us what life in Noordhoek is all about.

Noordhoek on Google

Checking out Noordhoek on Google I notice about just tourism related websites, an insignificant  Wiki entry and a Real Estate site. It’s time for a publication by, about and for people from Noordhoek.

Noordhoek on YORGOO Media

The YORGOO Media platform is an ideal place for communities to build an online network. First because the sites are tuned for high visibility, they are easy and quick to set up and best of all: they are FREE. Second because the personal sites are linked through the BuddyPress module which allows for the creation of a real social network. Setting up a Group called Noordhoek is a matter of 3 seconds. Inviting people from Noordhoek to join is an easy task - it’s enough to make it known that the facility exists.

Noordhoek Online Business

Let’s think about it:

You would like to launch a local online business but you don’t want to bother with technicalities, hosting, scripts and other distracting stuff. You neither want to spend a lot of money to start with, but you want to offer a real service to the community which can be financed by local and external advertisers.

Here is my plan:

1. Grab all Google top 10 positions on “Noordhoek” with Noordhoek related sub-domains on YORGOO Media plus use your own sites to get there as well. The point is: all these tourism and real estate sites need to buy advertising space either from you or from Google.

Examples:

noordhoek-realestate.yorgoomedia.com


noordhoek-tourism.yorgoomedia.com


noordhoek-accommodation.yorgoomedia.com


noordhoek-horsebackriding.yorgoomedia.com

2. Offer free websites to the whole population of Noordhoek and show them how they can use the social network as well as the blog.

3. Get a license from YORGOO Media to load a few themes for the users from Noordhoek; build local ads straight into these themes and adapt them as need arises. Make sure that on every site there is community news.

4. Get local contributors for the Noordhoek main site to make it THE authority site.

The nice thing about the plan: the population of Noordhoek shapes the online profile and image of their town instead of people from outside. This is all in line with our philosophy about: get in control of your name and brand. Why should Noodhoek not be master of its own destiny? Why should Noordhoek just remain in the hands of big brother Google and some smart agencies in Cape Town making the money on the brand name Noordhoek?

Hey guys and gals from Noordhoek: let’s bring the cash back home and let’s shape the Noordhoek Online Image together. YORGOO Media is ready to help and to support the project.
