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.

    South Africa is one of the most beau­ti­ful coun­tries. Need­less, to men­tion that I love South Africa. Well, let me go back tol basics, I am look­ing for
    friends and truly part­ners to net­work with in the United States and South Africa. It is for this par­tic­u­lar rea­son, I would like to dis­cuss the oppor­tu­nity of
    net­work­ing and doing busi­ness together with friends in South Africa and United States. Build dig­i­tal bridge, trust, share the leads, and net­work and be in
    each oth­ers net­work. I really appre­ci­ate your time and look for­ward to con­nect­ing.
    Thanks,
