Internet awareness is continuously spreading in India. With vast amount of increase in number of internet users in India, it is becoming crucial for companies to produce content for users and remain relevant online. For this reason, Domestic Brands and International brands in India are now making it a point to include Bloggers Outreach as a part of their digital marketing strategy. 

In online world, bloggers are web influencers. A small group of bloggers can make a big difference in brand’s online visibility. 

In India, 3890 bloggers from Mumbai, 3563 bloggers from Delhi, 3920 bloggers from Bangalore and 1337 Bloggers from Pune are registered on Indiblogger.in. Not only in metro cities but thousands of bloggers from small towns and Tier 2 cities are registered online. The number is big enough to make a difference on web.

While other brands in India plan a one-time engagement or event every year, Jabong.com is continually engaging with all types of bloggers by organizing small activities every now and then.

Why Jabong.com has a smarter blogger strategy?
  1. Jabong.com is doing a continual engagement with bloggers which is more beneficial than one big story every year.

Problems with Jabong.com Blogger Strategy

As per my analysis:
  1. Not very high influencing bloggers of the niche has yet written for the brand. Looks like the leading online shopping site of India is not yet ready to increase the budget for blogger outreach program
