Week One: My Theme

The theme I chose resonated with me because I enjoy the beach and bright colors. The orange color on the sides really makes everything pop and the header image is simple. Orange, yellow, and pink are my favorite colors because they evoke happiness and sunshine, so I wanted my theme to show that which is why I chose the orange color.  Everything I do is simple. I truly believe there is beauty in simplicity, which is why I chose this theme. The contemporary look speaks to me on a personal level. I am also a straightforward person, so I wanted my posts to be directly displayed on the homepage. I had a blog in the past and I had my posts on a separate page and I came to realize that I didn't like that, so I decided to try something different this time around.  Overall, I am very happy with my theme, and I think it reflects who I am as a person. Will I change it moving forward, who knows, but right now it is just right.  Social media is a tricky thing because what is right and what is w

Business Research Bakersfield College (http://www.gogades.com/landing/index) Bakersfield College is a community college in Bakersfield, CA. I am specifically looking at their athletics website because that is the field I am in. The school has 20 sports, so they are a large school which employs a lot of people to keep the department going. They use Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube and they use the platforms regularly.

Week 9: Blogging

 Blogging is an excellent way to increase the flow of traffic to a website because a blog humanizes a company. While not all blogs are about personal things the blogger themselves has experienced, the blogger can still share personal notes as they relate to the business. When people read blog posts they know a human being actually took the time to write the blog, whereas information on a website is just straight forward with no personal flair.  A great way to add a personal touch to a blog is for a testimonial. A lot of companies only allow their best employees to write testimonials for the company that is then shared on their blogs or websites. Being honest about the company and what they are doing makes the customer trust the company/brand more because they could be a shared connection. If the company sells soaps specialized for people with certain skin disorders, a testimonial from an employee who has a skin disorder will make others feel more comfortable knowing they are buying a p
