Blogging policy examples

If your
company, or any of its employees, is blogging, then you better have some rules.
A blogging policy is a must.

Here are
some tips to consider when establishing a blogging policy:

  • No anonymous post must have
    the authors name with a link to their email
  • A statement expressing that
    the blog and its contents are the views and opinions of the author only
    and not necessarily those of the employer
  • Corporate confidentiality and
    privacy policies must be adhered to with links to each contained in the blog
    footer
  • Each employee should have the
    prior consent of their immediate manager for maintaining a blog
  • Mutual respect for the
    company, its customers, and employees is critical and should be reflective
    in all writings
  • Potty language is a no-no;
    develop a style guide or sheet outlining the tone or feel a blog should
    adhere to (e.g. professional, corporate, conversational, avoiding jargon,
    etc.)

My company has a seperate team to blog, kind of like a article writing service where we keep the consumers updated on events and issues within are company that they might find of intrest.
