Piggynap’s Blog | Zoe Piper

Zoe Piper, The Internet And Everything

I’ve never really written loads on here, mainly because in this industry everyone blogs and it’s hard to say something that hasn’t been said before. The other reason is that this blog isn’t a part of my job and I don’t use it to run a company or anything, so I wouldn’t actually get a lot back out of writing about SEO all the time. It means I get to post about cats whenever I feel like it, but also that there’s often a week or two between posts.

Recently I’ve also started Suggest of the Day, and although that doesn’t take up a lot of time, it is a bit of an outlet for posting whatever content I want (within the constraints of the blog).

The main thing I wanted to post about however is the Bethemiddleman.com blog which I’ve got off the ground this week. For anyone who’s managed to avoid Frog and I for the last six months, Bethemiddleman.com is a new property portal for private house sales, along with rentals and room shares. The site is going into beta in a few weeks and as launch edges closer we wanted to start getting content onto the site. You can check out the blog to see my new foray into property writing (and if anyone can recommend other property blogs I should be reading, I’d be most grateful :) ). I’m quite enjoying the change but it probably means I’ll have less energy to post on here.

I guess I started this blog with good intentions and whilst I take my job pretty seriously, it hasn’t quite lent itself to being written about the way I expected. Especially when I can’t really write about clients (and that’s the most interesting part!). So, I’ll continue to post on here whatever unrelated stuff takes my fancy, but for proper blogging on a theme you know where to find me :)

    I can completely relate to what you are saying here, I have been in exactly the same boat myself. Blogging is hard enough to keep up with without having the most interesting part out of bounds.

    Best of luck with BTMM, I will be interested to see how it develops and if it can be turned into a profit making enterprise… perhaps I will see you and frog on the next series of Dragon’s Den ;)
