Have you taken CUNY’s Hyperlocal News survey?

by Matt on Jun 29, 2009 in Industry

If you run a hyperlocal news blog, the folks at CUNY’s New Business Models for News Project have a few questions they’d like to ask you. Jeff Jarvis explains the survey like this:

We are trying to find out how hyperlocal blogs and sites are doing their business today – how big they are, how big an area they cover, what’s working in advertising and what’s not. The data they give will be kept anonymous; that is, we’ll release it only in aggregate. We’ll also interview some of you to find out more.

I began the survey and got about four pages in before stopping. Not because it was too difficult or lengthy — but because it started asking about staff, budgets, advertising, start-up costs, and stuff like that. None of those things apply to our real estate blogs. But they probably DO apply to your local news blog, so take the survey here and have your voice be heard.
