My community is that of the Nutrition/Health/Fitness bloggers. Some of these bloggers are educators, while others are promoting a product, while others still may perhaps be sharing their own experiences as it is related to the topic. I feel that I fit in with the educators in the respect that this is a class where our compositions are supposed to be 50% research, and as such my blogs are simply an amalgamation of cited material and my thoughts.
I will be using several very different blog sites to juxtapose the views of nutrition and health with regards to the backgrounds and goals. For instance, you could say that the goal of a particular weight loss blogging site is to promote their product “HealthBarX." In other circumstances a fellow blogger might be putting out information to help others. But regardless of their goals/intentions I want to investigate what makes the blog site successful and what people feel that they can relate to.
Nutrition is such an important aspect of our lives, but it seems in my day-to-day encounters that not enough people pay attention to their diet. With this in mind I also want to see what people are interested in. If they’re not interested in nutrition, then I’ll investigate why they’re not interested. I feel that what I find will help me better understand the readers (current and prospective) which in turn will help me reach more people.
