As one of the top read blogs of the Hawks, one of the aspects that stands out the most is the amount of posts. Unlike many of the other blogs, Chicago Blackhawks Report has numerous posts a day covering a wide variety of Hawks news. Although people may not have time to read every single article in a given time, the writers of the blog understand that people want to know everything that is happening surrounding their team. By having numerous amounts of posts, people continually check the site, and thus drive up the blogs traffic. As ESPN is the leading sports news company in the industry, it is only likely that they have a tremendous amount of access to information. With its ease of access to the source, this blog is a very interesting read, and each article is filled with quotes from players, coaches, and the organization. This is a very distinctive aspect of the blog, and has enabled them to achieve much success in the field.
Another Important aspect to mention regarding the blog is its aesthetic appeal toward the reader. The blog is set up very well, and is certainly easy to follow. One of my favorite parts of the blog is its use of media below the headings. While some blogs may only use a few pictures, the Chicago Blackhawks Report does a very good job of also working videos into their headlines. One part of the blog that I think would be a great addition to the Chicago Blackhawks Nation site is the different links for resources such as the Chicago Blackhawks schedule, tickets, and stats. Along with different types of resources, the blog also provides the viewers of the site with several different types of media such as podcasts, recent updates, twitter account, and even an ESPN fan shop. I think the blog is very user friendly, and certainly has created a display that will drive traffic stats up.
