Exciting things to come exclusively to WINOL

This past week Georgia and I have been working on securing an  interview that we can stream online using all of WINOL's various social media accounts. This will bring additional traffic to the site which is fantastic for our bulletin viewing figures as well as our online magazines. WINOL currently had 1,500 followers which means that we have potentially 1,500 people who could view the interview.

This means that for people to be intrigued enough to go to the effort of watching an interview it needs to be a journalist that either works for a recognisable firm, or has a recognisable name. We have been in contact with Rosie Mullender Deputy Features Editor of Cosmopolitan Magazine and she is keen to meet us so hopefully in the near future we will be bringing an exclusive interview of her to WINOL.

This coming week we also have two prizes to give to our competition winners. I came up with the idea for the two competitions and I also organised the prizes too.

The first competition was a simple 'Retweet to win' contest for 'Adventure &Travel' the prize being a 2 for 1 voucher for Thorpe Park.

The next is the competition for 'Absolute:ly'. I organised for the make-up brand 'Benefit' to send me some samples of their latest products. 'Benefit' sent me three items which I took photos of and gave to the Editor of Absolute:ly. The three photos were then hidden in 3 different articles on the site. The competition applicants had to email a list of the three articles that the images were hidden in. I thought by getting readers to do this, it makes them look through ALL the articles on the site and not just the most recently added articles.
