I saw this commercial the other day on TV for the new Honda Pilot and was excited to hear them mention a blog. Watch the video above to see the commercial. Blogging! It’s officially everywhere!

We all know being “Green” is the latest trend and it seems like everyone is trying to woe customers with their being “Green” message. And it’s not likely to stop anytime soon. Now it is your chance to let everyone know what your community is doing in the environmental category by blogging about it.  Many apartment communities are starting to switch to using solar energy to heat their pools. Not only is this a big savings for the community it is also saving our planet. Let people know the improvements you are making by blogging about it. Here are some ways you can green your community in big and small ways:

1. Buy 100% recycled copier and printing paper
2. Heat your pool with solar
3. Use green products for cleaning
4. Buy recycled paper towels, tissues, and bathroom tissue
5. Make sure you have recycle bins in your office and around the community
6. Install energy efficient light bulbs
7. Reduce print advertising and increase online advertising
8. Give incentives to encourage employees to live at the community, take public transportation, or ride a bike
9. Install a grey water system to water plantings and landscaping
10. Blog….yes blogging can help by encouraging others to go green as you have done.

Just In Time For The Summer Moving Season

San Diego, CA – With the price of gas soaring to new heights each week along with the cost of everything else we buy, the internet will play a bigger role in our purchasing and renting decisions. The times of driving from apartment to apartment will soon be gone as consumers try to pinch every penny. The launching of Bloggingapartments.com, the nation’s first multiple blog website for apartment communities and property managers, will aid in the efforts of finding that perfect apartment. Just launched, this site offers a free website blog for an apartment community or property manager, so they can blog about available apartments, events going on in the area or at their community, news, an urgent notice to current tenants, post jobs, and array of other information.

This important free site will allow renters to get to know the places where they might want to live before plunking down a large sum of money for a deposit. Currently, there are no places on the internet where a person can go and look for an apartment and find out what’s going on at a particular rental. In addition, current tenants can read or subscribe to one of these apartment blog sites and get notices about water being turned off to fix a broken pipe, a monthly Sunday Brunch event to meet their neighbors, or find out about a new restaurant opening up around the block.

Want to find an apartment near a great hiking trail or bike path? How about an apartment near your favorite supermarket or restaurant? People who are looking for more than just a place to rest their head will be able to find out more specific information at Bloggingapartments.com than any other place.

Bloggingapartments.com works alongside popular apartment search sites such as Craigslist.org, Apartments.com, Apartmentguide.com and ForRent.com. Links to these and many other apartment search sites can be found on Bloggingapartments.com as well as links to property management websites. This will give renters an opportunity to see more choices and listings from their computer.

So the next time you go looking for that perfect apartment it most likely will be found with some help from a blog.
