Citizen journalism is open for everyone. Open for fresh ideas, information, thoughts, events, news. Everyone who is willing to do citizen journalism can do it without any special knowledge. All you need is interest in news and reporting. It’s a way for citizens to talk about stuff they think are worth to be mentioned.
So, if citizen journalism welcomes everyone, could it be more than that?
Could citizen journalism be some sort of self promotion place or platform?
Can one use citizen journalism for self promotion, to promote a profile or more, to promote a blog or site.
Maybe it would be a new way to open wider whole citizen journalism idea.
In some way your profile could become more recognizable. Like someone who is interested in happenings around himself, and not like a passive observer.
All your hobbies or stuff you do or wish to do you can put together and talk about them or connect them with some other events from all around the world.
Creating strong profile with good and quality content not only can make you a mainstream citizen journalist whose posts follow great number of people, but it can really help you promote yourself in social media, too.
