The State of UK Hyperlocal Community News

by Categories: hyperlocal, Social Media #Tagged: , , , , , , ,

Following on from what was the largest survey of UK hyperlocals, the long awaited report on the state of UK hyperlocal community news has finally been published.

The report was written by Cardiff University’s Dr Andy Williams, Westminster University’s Prof Steven Barnett and Judith Townend, and Birmingham City University’s Dave Harte.

While the hyperlocal scene is still mainly done for community good, it is nice to see that a few sites are making some small amounts of money, although I personally doubt that running a hyperlocal site is ever going to provide a good income for most people.

Best simple sourdough bread recipe to try it on? #sourdoughstarter #sourdough #baking #bread #homebaker #turriff #aberdeenshire #scotland
