Boston agency Hill Holliday has tossed its traditional site and launched a weblog. No, they didn’t just add a blog to their already existing site, they ditched it entirely. Well, almost. They’ve done a wonderful job incorporating some of the usual capabilities and portfolio items into the header of the blog using Flash. The beauty of this approach, what many agencies still need to discover, will catapult Hill Holliday into the “conversation” about advertising. The site will get natural Google love, Technorati love and proliferation throughout the blogoshere’s link-fest, something a static agency site can never achieve. And, most importantly, potential clients will get to know how HH thinks rather than how well they write website copy.
Other agencies such as W+K have great weblogs but we’re not aware of any other major (yes, smaller ones have) agencies that have gone the all-blog format. We think this is great and we welcome HH to the conversation.
