Create your official blog on fest21.com:
The first online social network for festivals and filmmakers worldwide (4000 festivals, and thousands of filmmakers attracted by the festival circuit).

Your blog's url is worth mentioning along your other profiles in social networks since it is the only one in an environment strictly dedicated to film.

Ask for our logo to link to our site and improve your google ranking by doing so.

The monthly traffic show over 350 000 unique visitors on our website: be sure to connect with them in the best way possible, with fully detailed data and high visibility.

A few tips to achieve the best online presence:

Your Blog

- Make sure the name of your blog is spelt the exact (shortest) way you wish people to find you in the directory ie "Cannes Film Festival" rather than "cannesfilmfestival" or "Bahamas International Film Festival" instead of "BIFF"

- Publish regularly in your blog, ask your publicist to post (create/create text) all your press releases (improve your google ranking)
- Blogs that are updated hit the "recently updated  blogs" on homepage

- Post the festival poster and the trailer if you have one

- Publish the call for entry and select "call for entry" channel to be featured for free here:

http://www.fest21.com/en/channel/festivals/call_for_entry

and

http://www.filmfestivals.com/bulletin/index.shtml

PROMOTE on the web

Finally "the killer ap": use your personal RSS feed (it is specific to your blog and contains all your publications) to feed all your other blogs profiles: like facebook, myspace, twitter... or any blog you may have. No need to copy posts one by one, use fest21 as the mother blog.

Festival Directory Listing for your fest

Your blog is linked in our system to your festival entry.
The database is jointly featured on both sites filmfestivals.com and fest21.com. All updates are done through fest21.com.

If you do not have a festival listing yet click create/register a festival once you are logged to your blog profile. If you already have one click (top right) under festival information and select edit.

To update the festival entry, fill as many details as you can, including genre, beginning and deadline of call for entry, price range of submission fee, links to the regulations, ticketing, upload the entry form as a file...

Select accept submission from fest21.com if you want our international audience to submit in ONE click to your festival.
