The Vuelio Blog Awards<\/a> are the biggest celebration of bloggers in the UK. Taking place on 30 November 2018 at the Bloomsbury Big Top in London, this year\u2019s event promises to be even bigger and better than ever before, and there\u2019s only one rule \u2013 no influencers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bloggers, vloggers, Instagrammers, tweeters, Facebookers, YouTubers, writers, content creators, makers, editors, publishers, photographers, directors and small business owners \u2013 all are welcome to the greatest night of the year. So are PRs, comms pros, practitioners, officers, creatives, account managers and copywriters.<\/p>\n

But influencers? I don\u2019t think we\u2019re the event for you.<\/p>\n

Our winners from the last three years \u2013 from political supremo, Guido Fawkes, and super parent, Slummy Single Mummy to interior design guru, Mad About the House, and fashion goddess, Inthefrow \u2013 do many things; they run businesses, they write books, they tell stories and, yes, they influence their audience.<\/p>\n

But Spielberg doesn\u2019t call himself a ticket tout, Gordon Ramsey doesn\u2019t call himself a tummy filler and Jessica Ennis-Hill don\u2019t call herself a sportswear seller. When did we stop taking pride in the work we do to focus on the results we create \u2013 often for other people?<\/p>\n

We speak to the blogosphere all the time and recently we\u2019ve been asking them: what do you like to be called? And do you know what they don\u2019t<\/em> say? Influencer.\u00a0Many tell us they’re not influencers or they don’t want to be called influencer.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why The Vuelio Blog Awards don\u2019t require a minimum social follower count to be shortlisted, you don\u2019t have to enter yourself and we will never<\/strong> ask bloggers to secure votes to help them win.<\/p>\n

Instead, we bring together a diverse panel of judges, all leaders in their respective industries, who pore over every finalist to determine the winners. They may consider how influential a blog is, but what they\u2019re looking for is quality of content, relevance to the topic, beautiful aesthetics and uniqueness \u2013 something that makes a blog stand out against everything else in the field.<\/p>\n

That means that when you win, you know your prize is truly deserved because your blog is outstanding. We reward the work you put in because we think this industry is hard, and the very best bloggers, vloggers and content creators deserve to be recognised.<\/p>\n

So, if influence is just a result of how awesome you are at your job, the Vuelio Blog Awards 2018<\/strong> will take place on 30 November<\/strong> at the Bloomsbury Big Top<\/strong>. Save the date<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
