Libraries – knowledge and community hub? Traditionally a geographical community has a few hubs – the church and the pub being most noticeable in the UK (look at any old village and count which buildings were a place of religion or drinking, even if they’re now converted to homes!). blog comments powered by Disqus Blog Partners:

Fund an online resource for local news and info – if you’re finding money to do it, then use it to either pay someone at the hub of a local community, or fund ways for them to be able to effectively monetise what they do. blog comments powered by Disqus Blog Partners: other services are in decline?

It’s not to say it’s impossible – by building and engaging a community, taking direct paid advertising, or occasionally finding an actually lucrative affiliate deal, bloggers can still build a mini media empire.

Even many of the people who talk about concentrating on engagement rather than total audience numbers appear to be susceptible – there are great communities in places like Second Life, for example, which are being overlooked because it's now seen as old news and not growing as quickly as Twitter, for example.

Brand communities, contests, most social listening, and non-promotional tweeting fits into this category. Conversely, many blogs are too community-oriented, taking an overly insider approach, given that new research from my friends and clients Compendium Blogware shows that search drives 60%+ of total traffic on 80%+ of corporate blogs.

These scenarios come to fruition in spontaneous communities, on social networks, and other self-service tools – all thanks to the availability of low cost technology and access to the world wide web. You can also not use the tools correctly or not behave appropriately within communities around the tools and market poorly.

After using both Plurk and Twitter pretty heavily, I’ve come to the conclusion that Plurk is best at its features for community-building, whereas Twitter succeeds more with its interface that bolsters information-sharing.

On a less positive, but equally helpful tact, it helps me identify off-topic tweeps that have crept into the community via my auto refollow tools, and I can unfollow these directly from the newspaper page. It helps me reach out to tweeps that I might not @reply that often and I hope this will lead to deeper, more meaningful relationships.
