6-2 Blog: Marketing Perspective

I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t follow any influencers. I think now, more than ever, people are starting to become “influencers” and it’s something that’s been growing within the past year, although it’s been happening for years now. I follow a ton of fashion bloggers like Jean Wang of Extra Petite and Wendy from Wendy’s Lookbook. I also follow a lot of beauty youtubers. When my favorite fashion bloggers promote a product they like, I do my research by reading reviews and then, I make a purchase. I feel more at ease when an influencer promotes a product than when a celebrity promotes it. It feels more real and genuine when an influencer does it. With influencers, I noticed that brands and companies are reaching out to influencers more than celebrities.

Branding: A Day in the Life

            In my every day life, I use digital media on a daily basis. Every day, I’m always on wordpress.org. I have my own blog that I work on and put 100% of my time in. It’s self-hosted on wordpress.org instead of wordpress.com. I’m on it every day writing new blog posts, responding to comments, and updating my site. Wordpress.org is pretty much a self-hosted blog where you own your content entirely. You can edit the theme of your page to make it how you want it to look like. I have a fashion blog that’s growing every month and I’ve been making some steady income from it. I’m on my site every day, multiple times a day. Aside from my blog, I am always on Instagram and Facebook. Because I have a blog, I have to self-promote myself all the time.

I use Instagram as an extension of my blog where I’ll post a photo that has to do with my new blog post and let my follow
