Though the lifestyle blog is fairly new, being little over three weeks old, Kingstonian Lifestyle has managed to garner local and international attention. With daily readers from Jamaica, Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, and as a far away as Croatia and South Korea, the blog seems to be gaining daily readers with no promotion of any kind.
Many probably come across the site by happenstance, but many stay because of they recognise that the content, which covers beauty, fashion, arts, eateries and real issues, is truly original and that hard work goes into each post. And we all know that we're only as good as our last.
This is, perhaps, the reason that Kingstonian Lifestyle has been nominated in the Best Beauty and Fashion Blog, Best Lifestyle Blog, Best New Blog and the Readers' Choice Award categories for the Jamaica Blog Awards.
The first annual staging of the highly anticipated event will happen on January 16, 2011 at The Jamaica Pegasus hotel. Bloggers across the island will convene to watch the best in the local blogging community accept awards in categories such as Best Food Blog, Best Entertainment Blog and Top Blog Post for 2010.
The results will be based on public voting, which makes up 60% of the total tally, and the rest will be up to the judging panel. The blogs will be judged on five key areas: layout and design, content quality, reader engagement, relevance to the category and overall experience.
Voting has already begun and polling will end on January 3 at midday. One can vote at JamaicaBlogAwards.com and voting can only take place once.
We encourage you to support the lifestyle. Head over to the site and start voting.
