    VillageSoup - The Future of Community News?

    Saturday, August 25, 2007:
    The following article by Rachel Buchanan appeared "The Age"  regretting the demise of the printed media at the expense of online news. The final point in this article reads:

    "Unless bloggers begin covering school board and city council meetings, major and not so major crimes, serious and not so serious accidents and fires, weather, issues of importance to the few and to the many and issues of little interest to themselves — all this on a daily basis — they will not provide the services now covered by the mainstream press."

     
    VillageSoup Community Web Hosting

    One of the major challenges facing community newspapers and website developers is to coordinate and maintain local news content on the existing local community websites whilst maintaining costs.

    VillageSoup™ is a Web-based community hosting service designed to efficiently harness community Internet interest and usage. This is achieved through the structure of specific web-based solutions in the areas of local Government, Business, Education, Sports, Arts and Entertainment.

    Operating with minimal operator intervention, Correspondents are able to post news and views from their family, friends and groups on to the website to share with the rest of the community. Partners may post unlimited press releases to the Business Report. Contributors have free access to post to community bulletin boards, write letters, post organisation news, add to a Calendar of Events and act as community correspondent.

    Non-profit (orgMembers) sponsor organisations (Education, Government, Sports, Community, Arts and Entertainment) may post press releases, events and issues free-of-charge.

    For-Profit (bizMembers) sponsor organisations may post news stories about their business, employment opportunities, promotions, new product or service developments (a fee is required).

    TheSoup hosts postings from journalist, individual, business and organization community members who together create a place to:
         • Learn the news that affects their community
         • Share the events and ideas that unite their community
         • Shop the goods and services that sustain their community

    TheSoup reaches beyond print and online news to create a place for community based discourse, debate and commerce. It becomes the community newsstand, the community grange hall and the community main street with neighbours growing together. TheSoup offers daily local news online -- in communities where there was only weekly news -- to drive website traffic to those businesses using VillageSoup tools.

    Working with Affiliated weekly newspapers together they comprise a unique cross-media opportunity for advertisers setting new standards in the hyper-local media industry.

    TheSoup is distinguished by its focus on creating an online community place where advertisers participate as members. While most media companies strive to increase traffic to online sites to sell more display advertising, TheSoup uniquely offers local businesses a set of community shared tools that give them control over posting useful and timely information.

    Businesses can post such items as the latest real estate listings, daily meal specials, changes in business hours, news of recent achievements, and new product and service offerings. Membership and usage fees, along with banner and button ads, generate critical additional revenue to support high quality, exclusively local, professional journalism, which is the key to clarifying important issues and events that stimulate local community actions. Sharp spikes in traffic occur every time weather threatens, sirens blare, and municipal debates occur, and in times of local family tragedy or celebration.

    TheSoup website content is free with unrestricted access. iMembers, bizMembers and orgMembers post news, comments, events, classifieds, products and services directly to the site. Members can request e-mail alerts of breaking news and specific products and services such as a type of real estate listing, classified listing or dining menu special. Membership includes delivery of TheSoup's affiliated newspapers.
