How do you post "hyper local" content? I have tried to create hyper local blog posts, but cannot get the tags for the city to apply. What is the trick? Thanks in advance, Ryan

When you're finished writing your post, scroll down to the blue bar where it says "Post to".

Then select the box that says "Hyper-Local Pages".

Once you click the hyper-local box, drop down menus will appear for state and county and then city and neighborhood.

I hope that helps.

If those options don't appear, they may not be available to Rainers.

I suspect that I you need to be a Rainmaker to post for public viewing. Your current blogs are for members only.

Just remember, your ActiveRain's 'RAINER' account makes these posts PRIVATE. To enjoy the full benefits, I'd recommend 'RAINMAKER' account on ActiveRain - which will be free for life once you reach 500,000 ActiveRain points,

I post most of my posts to hyper-local. Of course I am a Rainmaker and have been since day one. I see tremendous value in it Ryan.

Thank you all VERY much! Jill, your directions were very helpful and Roy, thank you for stating that they are public pages! The option for "Hyper-local pages" does not even appear for me, which is due to not having the upgraded account.

This definitely helps to sell the $200/yr upgrade cost! Thanks everyone!!

I don't see any Rainer postings on this page. And you do know you can get that cost to zero with 500,000 points right? So upgrade and blog away. It will benefit you I promise
