What do you like about it?
I like how aesthetically pleasing this blog is, therefore it attracted me as soon as I came across the home page. On the left side of the homepage it has the latest popular news and in the centre of the page is the latest issues or topics the world is discussing that are available to read. I like how easy this blog is to view and how it can simply connect to other pages or posts. On the top right hand corner of the blog home page, there are also four other pages that include topics that most readers are interested in.
Why do you think it works well?
I think this blog works well because it is constantly being updated and always remains very modern and aesthetically pleasing. It is not only the visual appeal that is intriguing about this blog, but also the content within the many posts are interesting and broad as they cover so many different topics, issues and interests the world is facing today.
How does the author (or editors, publisher) use authoring, publishing and distributing in the online space to get an audience?
The publishers of ‘The Debrief’ are extremely aware of using the online space and what is available through social media to seek an audience. The Debrief usually does this through twitter, as they have a constantly active twitter page that regularly posts on what is being updated on their blog, to regularly seek the attention of others on twitter to attract them to read the blog, and to get a hold of original readers of ‘The Debrief’ that can follow their twitter page to know about more blog posts coming up or the blogs updates.
