The results are in – find out which property bloggers have been crowned the winners in this year’s Primelocation.com Property Blog Awards.
Back in December we launched the very first Primelocation.com Blog Awards, to celebrate the writing and recognise the talent of the very best property bloggers around.
And now, nominations in, votes counted, and hours of hard deliberation done, it is time to announce the winners. The competition was tough and the prizes well deserved, so congratulations to those who came out on top, and well done, too, to everyone who made the shortlists.
Best blog
A Little Drop of Cognac
It was a closely fought battle, but A Little Drop of Cognac’s Graham Downie has emerged victorious with the top prize. The judges were won over by his refreshing and entertaining mix of property market musings and insights into his life in France, alongside some great images and interesting guest posts.
Best blog post
Douglas and Gordon: A joke’s a joke...
Agent’s Diary: Cut and run - Friday
Cognac Property: Buy the house or the dog gets it
International Property Journal: The world’s tallest building
Agent’s Diary: Love Actually - Wednesday
The mutterings of malcontent from this undercover agent make for very compelling reading. This post scooped the prize because of its topical content and clever turn of phrase.
Best newcomer
The House Historian
Chesterton Humbert’s in-house historian Melanie Backe-Hansen is one clever lady. Her blog ran away with the Best Newcomer crown, thanks to its unique and original content (Melanie spends her time digging up the past of houses and streets – and then shares her findings on her beautifully presented blog).
