I am honoured to have won the ‘Best Newcomer’ award in the Prime Location blog awards amidst very tough competition, as well as being shortlisted in the ‘Best Blog’ and ‘Users Favourite’ categories. Thank you so much to all those who voted and all the twitter supporters, I really appreciate all the support and comments.

Chesterton Humberts’ House Historian named ‘Best Newcomer’ blog by PrimeLocation.com

The 2009 Primelocation.com Blog Awards The 2009 Primelocation.com Blog Awards
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).

The voting for ‘Users Favourite’ was certainly tough and congratulations to winner, Renter Girl, but also sincere commiserations to The Rat and Mouse. Congratulations also to the winner of the ‘Best Blog’ – A Little Drop of Congac

The awards certainly reveal a certain shift in the way social media can be used effectively in the property industry, but I’m also pleased that a subject like the history of houses has inspired readers and gained support across a wide spectrum of our media savvy society!

Thank you again – and another house history blog will be on its way soon!

[...] Primelocation.com first initiated the property blog awards in late 2009 and I was fortunate to be the first to be awarded the Best Newcomer award. [...]

Good luck in the awards. You always provide an interesting read and fill a niche which is fairly discussed in such depth by others

Thank you for your kind comment! It was a tough race, but it was great to be short-listed amongst such a list of bloggers :-)
