Six Months of EcoSearch’s dot.green Blog

EcoSearch has now been blogging here on dot.green for six months and this will make our 54th post. It really doesn’t feel like it’s been that long.

Today I thought I would bring you a few highlights from dot.green’s first six months.

• In February we posted about an episode of University Challenge after contestants were asked to answer questions on Renewable energy. Little did we know that the programme would go on to encounter such controversy.
• Last Year, Debby Lloyd looked at the merits of using Head Hunters in a down economy. It’s so much more important for a company to be able to rely in its talent partner in tough times.
• Our list of Favourite green folks to follow on the micro-blogging site Twitter was a hit, drawing in quite a bit of traffic and a few really useful lists in the comments. You can still take a look and add your favourites to follow.
• Clare Buxton, our resident wind energy expert, has had good response to her articles on the sector since the launch of dot.green. In particular, when she considered whether the credit crunch will have a positive effect on the Wind Energy sector’s supply chain.
• We also had a hugely popular guest blogger in the form of one of Steven Rogers’ placements. Her article titled: “Without Once Mentioning the Word ‘Poo’!” drew in a lot of readers and was an interesting look at life as an Energy Consultant.

I also thought it was interesting to note that our readers come from all over the world. In the last month we have had readers from over 30 different countries and territories. Since the launch of dot.green our ‘readership top five’ has looked something like this:

1. UK and Ireland
2. USA
3. Germany
4. Netherland
5. India

Feel free to let us know in the comments section below what makes you stop by for a read.
