Women Dominate the BAKE Awards 2018
The Bloggers Association of Kenya, BAKE Awards 2018 went down last weekend at a wonderful Gala Event at the Crowne Plaza Nairobi, Hotel. The Winners’ Gala Event was attended by some of the top Kenyan bloggers and influencers, including yours truly.
The competition began on January 11th 2018, where BAKE Kenya accepted submissions in the various categories for close to one month. Thereafter, a panel of judges selected the best 5 nominees from the successful submissions in each category as well as the best top 5 for the Kenyan Blog of the year. This was followed by the public voting phase which closed on May 7th 2018. This year, the new categories added are Best Environment Blog, Best Beauty and Hair Blog and Best Video Blog (Vlog). The total number of categories being 23 in 2018.
As you know, I was a nominee in the Best Lifestyle Blog category. Though I did not win, I am still incredibly grateful to have been nominated. I have been part of BAKE since 2012 and attended every award ceremony so this was a continuation of a tradition that is close to my heart.
The number of Kenyan women bloggers and influencers has been steadily growing and I dare say that women are dominating the online space in Kenya. Women won a record 15 awards at the awards this year which is phenomenal. Among the winners were first timers like Bonnita Aluoch (aluochbonnita.com) , Elizabeth Wanjiru (lizmazingira.com), Over Twenty Five YouTube Channel and Tabitha Tongoi (cravingyellow.com), with Tatiana Karanja (tatianakaranja.com) making history by being the first woman to ever win in the photography category.
