Our Community The blog currently attracts over 300,000 hits from 60,000 unique vistors every month. Some of these readers are also actively participating in our other platforms. We have a facebook group of more than 3800 members and growing daily. There are also more than 1300 members in our forum. Ieatishootipost also has a growing following on Twitter. Numerous makan sessions have been organized for its members as well as charity events. The largest event so far was Durian Degustation IV which was attended by over 180 persons. The registration was closed in 12 hours because of overwhelming demand. Most of our makan sessions are over subscribed and we are constantly looking for partners to host and sponsor these events. Professional Collaborations ieatishootipost has worked with major companies such as Canon, where Dr Tay conducts food photography workshops, as well appearing as a speaker in their powershot campaign.
He is currently also representing Zespri Kiwifruit as its Singapore
Ambassador and has been involved in creating new recipes using
Kiwifruit as well as conducting a cooking demonstration. You can watch the
whole Kiwifruit series on Razor TV here. Dr Tay has also written numerous advertorials from products as diverse as handphones to travel to movie reviews. Here are some of the major brands that have included ieatishootipost as part of their marketing strategy: Opportunities The latest project sees the introduction of video blogs which add an extra dimension to the food blog. The current series of videos are about basic Japanese cooking. We are planning another series on Italian cooking where we will be teaching our viewers some basic Italian pasta recipes. There are opportunities for your company to sponsor a set of videos. As a general rule, ieatishootipost does not do paid reviews of restaurants. To do so will destroy the objectivity of the blog. However, I do write advertorials for lifestyle products which would be of interest to our readers. I do accept invitations to review food but reserve the right to publish only restaurants which I feel will give our readers a positive experience. Food photography workshops have been organized for groups such as Schools and Corporations in conjunction with Canon Singapore. You can organize a session for your corporation as well.
