Promoting A News Blog Offline

[Deleted member 183008]

How can you promote a local news blog of a specific city?
I am looking for ideas.

We live near a large city, and some local news websites send a flyer with their latest interviews with locals to our mailbox.
We like it - as we love to visit a local farmer to get the latest 'pumpkins'. Find some interesting local trends and start writing about them.
Share it on local Facebook groups, flyers, etc. and you'll be recognized.

Looks like flyers/pamplets are good options with the latest trending posts/interviews.

What about hoardings?

Cover the local news related to place on the blog. If content is good, this should be easy to rank. It will be hard to make good money with such a blog though.

If you're doing local blogging, then you better be ready to physically interact with other locals in person.

Local banners and pamphlets are the best options for offline

Use Podcasts instead of other online promotions, podcasts give a good reach
