Discovering Cities in California Series
We write about each California city every week.
What we are doing under the California Authority topic of this blog is building the content for our web site California Weather Authority here California Weather dedicated to weather and local information about each California city.
Discovering California A to Z
Our planned schedule started us out with the letter “A” and will explore each California city until we complete the entire state and ending up in Yucca Valley, California near our home base in Palm Springs, California and that will complete this series.
What makes California Weather Authority web sites a better viewer benefit?
We own the domain names for each city like La Jolla is LajollaWeather.com and like Beverly Hills is BeverleyHillsWeather.com. There are 478 Incorporated cities in California and we have a domain name dedicated to each.
What we call this type of project when it is focused like this is on California, Each City, and Weather is a Domain Name Cluster.
What we are building will be so detailed and community focused like no other weather web site currently provides at least this is what it will be once the project get its next updates and we begin adding a lot of city by city specialized content.
We write about cities of gold discoverers
When writing our story this week about Auburn, California we found a truly hidden treasure right inside the city of Auburn and that inspired me to write about the golden history and its impact on California.
We are only nearing the end of the letter “A” cities by name before we head into the “B” city names and each time we complete a letter of the cities in the alphabet we will break, come onto the blog and do these historic discoveries. This way we will be able to also remind our readers by sharing what we are doing for and with the California Weather Authority project.
