===Why You Should Encourage Your Supporters to Have Blogs and Websites===
'''KEY POINT:''' If you have a lot of supporters and your organization is a non-profit associated with a particular cause , I would recommend suggesting supporters to have websites and blogs as well and to have these websites and blogs link to your organizations website. I would also suggest providing them this resource. If your organization is cause based, some of your supporters probably post on forums and other places on the internet. Also, if you have zealous supporters posting in fairly non popular forums or in general forums, this is less productive than a focused blog on a particular subject. Google does look at the topical relevance of a particular site or forum. I suppose an alternative is to have your supporters be more active as far as creating articles for your website but an argument for telling your supporters how they can easily have their own website or blog and then link to your websites is that they will have more freedom in terms of what they write (and you will not have to review it) plus there is the convenience factor. If their material is hosted at their website or blog, the can more easily make revisions.
I believe that the best strategy is combination of having your supporters write articles for your website, but at the same time encouraging them to have their own blogs and websites also due to the freedom of expression and convenience factor. Plus I generally think people are sometimes more enthusiastic if they have their own personal website or blog and the proliferation of blogs on the internet tells me that I am correct in suggesting that a mix of having supporters write articles for your website plus encouraging them to have their own websites is a wise strategy.
