India PR Blog is today a good resource on public relations and is the leading site on the subject in India. The site is among the top 25 PR blogs globally.

Readers include PR professionals across levels and organizations, marketing professionals, journalists, mass communication students, and marketing bloggers in India, US, Europe, and the Asia Pacific. Everyday many dozens of students and young PR professionals search for PR related information in India on Google, Yahoo, and Live search and they come to this blog.

However, there are much more practical knowledge that can be shared. The blog has some plans in store like starting a Q&A section, a newbie’s section, media resources having media lists, journalists profiles, interview columns, etc. We realise that to actualize these requires a dedicated team work. Thus we are on the lookout for 2-3 regular writers to come on board.

So if you are a PR professional or a journalist in India with 5+ years of experience in the industry, love the PR profession, are good in writing, enthusiastic about the new media, call spade a spade, usually write straight to the point, don’t bring the corporate air talk in your writing, and have dozens of your own definitions and theories on PR, branding, event management, marketing, and marketing communications; then write in with information about yourself. We will sit over coffee or have a telecon and discuss it out.

By the way, the writers need not be anonymous. We can have big author pictures and profiles on the sidebar. The anonymity so far was to generate interest across agencies and not let the blog associate with one particular organization. When there is a team from multiple agencies writing, there will be no need to remain anonymous.

What are the benefits you can get? The blog can be one of the best platforms you can use to build up your professional profile in India and abroad, a good way to build up your expertise in the web 2.0 space. Yes, apart from these, there are of course the other benefits like outgoing links to your blog, if you have. India PR Blog is a PR 5 site. Monetary benefits will also come in some time.
