online organization

A review of online organization tips

Here’s a review of some of the central concepts of online organization that I've covered previously.  There's much more that you can review in the "related posts" listed at the bottom if you've missed any of them.

Create a “home-base”

Use either a complete website, a blog (such as with Wordpress or Blogger), or a free online group or campaign, (with AktNow, Google, Yahoo or Ning).  This gives you a central location where people can find you and that you can link back to in your offline and online activity.

Tips for conservative online organization

Whether everyone in politics realizes it yet or not (still "not" for many people), online organization is not only here to stay, but it represents the quickest, most impactful and cost effective form of political organization.

And when it comes to organizing and campaigning on the Internet, there are some fundamental tips you should keep in mind in order to be more successful.

Be Visible:

Voters expect to be able to find you (and information about you or your cause) online.  Increasingly, some sort of web presence is a minimum threshold for credibility of any serious organization.  If they can’t find you, they can’t interact with you.

Why conservatives should organize online

Given that politics is all about people, it’s a natural fit for the Internet and online social networks.  In many ways the Internet is the ultimate “precinct” in America’s politics, in that everyone “lives” there.

The overwhelming majority of registered voters have online access, and huge (and increasing) percentages of them regularly access political information online – which puts them only one step away from taking action if they have the opportunity.

The fact that so many people are using the Internet for political information and activity means that you should see it as a natural extension of your activities.  And while the Internet is becoming an increasingly effective tool, it’s also becoming easier to use, which puts everyone on a more even playing field.

In many ways, the Internet is the great equalizer of politics.  “No money” can compete effectively with “big money”, given enough grassroots support.
