A coverage book is a published record of the coverage your home has earned, arranged the way you want it, with a screenshot of each piece and the reach of the outlet that ran it. It lives at a public link that you control.

It is not visible to search engines unless you choose to let it be. Books are private links by default, so a report for your board does not turn up on Google.

Why it matters

What coverage books changes.

Coverage disappears

A local paper's website reshuffles and the piece about your garden is gone. The book keeps the screenshot.

Proof for the people who matter

A prospective family, a lender, a buyer, a commissioner. A year of press in one link answers the question before it is asked.

Built on the same tool Bridgehead uses

The agency behind bamboo compiles its own clients' coverage the same way.

Questions

The ones that get asked.

Who can see a book?

Anyone with the link. Search engines do not index it unless you turn indexing on for that book.

Where does the reach figure come from?

Each outlet's published audience, counted once per outlet. The method is stated on the book.

Can I add coverage from before I joined?

Yes. Paste the link and bamboo fetches the piece.
