Geocaching and Blogging

[Tonka_Boy]

As an active member of the geo-blogger community, I am constantly on the search for new blogs and blog-posts on the internet that pertain to geocaching. For me, reading about peoples’ outdoor adventures is almost as much fun as being there. But sometimes, geocaching blogs are hard to find. If you currently have a blog about geocaching, please put the word “geocache” or “geocaching” in the title of your posts. It makes you much easier to find.

 

For example, rather than a title like, “Family Fun in the Park Today” try, “Family Geocaching in the Park Today.” That way, a simple Google blog search for “geocaching”, displays your post.

 

If you don’t currently have a Geocaching blog, I encourage you to start one. I find that it’s a great way to discover new friends and read about others’ geocaching adventures. It allows people from all over the world to read about your exploits in geocaching. For example one of my posts about The Ultimate Skirt Lifter was featured on ottawageocaching.com. Now people all over the world are reading that post. Pretty cool!

 

It’s incredibly easy to start a blog. I would recommend Blogger.com for the beginner. It’s free. There’s no spam, popups, or banner adds. In 10 minutes, you can be on the blogosphere, posting your stories for all to read.

 

Now get out there and blog.

Creating a blog can be fun and easy. If you do it please send a link to The Online Geocacher, a free geocaching e-zine, and I will add it to the Links page.

 

Or save yourself the trouble of creating and maintaining a blog and email your stories to the e-zine for immediate publication!

I love blogging about our caching adventures - we use wordpress which is also free - free is good

[+go_man]

I concure with Tonka_Boy. Making it easier for us to bring your adventures to the rest of the Geocaching community would be a great help.

 

BTW - if you do have a Geocaching related blog, or a favorite Geocaching related website, please add it to our Geocaching Directory. We have hundreds of Geocaching sites already listed. Please add yours.

Here is a thread with a bunch of caching blogs listed.

 

I enjoy Electronic Breadcrumbs quite a bit. It has multiple authors and an interesting variety of topics.

Have been blogging on geocaching since 2006 - if you scroll on my blog to May 2007 you'll find a short review of caching blogs.

Y'all have motivated me to update my blog. I've been geo-blogging for over a year, but only for "road trips", and I'm way behind (I'm on April, 2008). I've never really told anyone, or gave out the link in my profile. Once I do get it somewhat updated, I'll add it to the directory.

I am not a great writer but have attempted to start a BLOG of my own. I use the FREE .NET BlogEngine. Very nice but then I've never tried any others.

 

Rants, Raves and Ramblings, Usually About Geocaching

[+Headhardhat]

I agree with what I have read in the posts. Blogging about my Geocache adventures has been a very creative outlet for me.

 

GeoCache: I'm NOT Obsessed... Right?

I have had a regular blog for over a year now, but just recently started a separate caching blog.

 

My daily blog is here: A Florida Journal

Caching only blog is here: Gladeslvr & Crew's Geocaching Blog

 

If you stop by either one, please leave me a comment, even if it's just to say Hi!
