This is YOURWORLD.......here is how you can get involved

Introducing YOURWORLD EASTWOOD - YOUR new website and mobile app giving you the platform to share YOUR local news, sport and events, promote YOUR businesses and share YOUR videos, photos, opinions and views.

This is all about YOURWORLD

So, why at YOUR Eastwood and Kimberley Advertiser have we decided to launch this website and app? For one reason only, this is YOURWORLD and it is about you and your community, with you all getting the chance to take control.

Think about what matters to YOU, rather than what matters to US and, even better, it won't cost you a penny. All it takes is a little bit of your time. 

Whether you want to share videos and post photos of the area, ask questions, post news, sport and success stories, simply chat with local friends or put a spotlight on local businesses and shops, it is entirely up to YOU. This platform is for YOU and you will most importantly be able to share whatever you like in a safe space.  

As if that wasn't enough, you will have the opportunity to promote events, showcase shops and businesses through videos, photos and articles. You will even have the opportunity to buy and sell unwanted items through MarketWorld.  

Now, for the EASY part. All you have to do is sign up for free with your basic details.

Yes, it really is that simple. 

You can find the website at   www.yourworld.net and download the app by searching YourWorld Eastwood on the appstore or Google Play.

And if that wasn't enough, there will be some incredible prizes on offer, as well as incentives and rewards for our best and most regular contributors. Sign up today and start posting.  

For those of you who write the most exciting content, you will also see your work make it into the printed edition of the Advertiser, out every Friday. We did tell you it was all about YOURWORLD, didn't we?

We want to hear from and work with local organisations and businesses, schools, clubs, and sports teams. We want to hear YOUR success stories, news, events, anything of interest. YOU are in the driving seat, not us.  

To take part, once registered you can submit content in a series of simple and straightforward steps (see below).

It is simple to post content once registered:

  1. Click on sign up in the top right and add your basic details

  2. Once signed up you can publish by clicking ADD A POST.

  3. You can select POST A VIDEO and all you have to do is upload your file, give it a title and submit.

  4. If you choose the WRITE A STORY option, all you have to do is write a basic headline, first paragraph (intro), add an image by clicking the upload button and add the rest of your words.

  5. Next, choose an article category

  6. Then, hit next and you can either add more images or move to the next step where you can add video.

  7. If you have none, hit next again where you will get a preview of your article.

  8. If you're happy, click submit and it is job done. You can also refine it by editing at this point.

  9. You also have the option of SELLING AN ITEM using a series of simple steps.

It really is as simple as that. And, if you need help, just get in touch with me via martin.hutton@nationalworld.com.
