Here is a post with an explanation of some very simple HTML code so, you can get the most benefit of those great pictures on your website. Having a graphic to catch peoples attention is wonderful but, you want it to be placed (center, right, left), sized, have alternate text to feed the search engines, and linked right to your product page!
You can use this on websites, blogs, and most profiles at Social Networking sites.

I have the complete html code shown on the article. It's really simple once you see it!

thanks for the tips allmylovecrafts! Ever since my boyfriend proposed to me with a gorgeous diamond engagement ring from I Do Now I Don't I want to start a blog as a bride-to-be. So this will be helpful for when I get started, can't wait!

Hi,
If you are new to NING communities, and you love getting more traffic to your blog sites, I'll share one of my 'Top Secrets' with you.
Ning Communities and Your Blog RSS.

Many people either have not noticed where you can put your RSS feed or they have just forgotten.

Now, that you know one of my 'Top Secrets' I hope you burn this message ASAP, we do not want the enemy getting a hold of this info. I would have set this message to self destruct but, I am not Macgyver.

I hope that helps a bit,
Sheryl Loch

I wrote a post on my blog that tells a bit about how the Blog Co-Op works and how members will benefit from being a part of the "tribe". Building your blog traffic and subscribers on your own is the old way.

Blog Co-Op at The Internet Marketers Guild

The post also has links so people can follow the Internet Marketers Guild on Twitter and FriendFeed. This will make it easier for everyone to see when new post are made, will help them get more exposure, and the
fast ones can get over to new blog articles and get the 1st comment spot. LOL!

I will continue to add info as I can. If anyone has questions let me know!!

Well this is a little rant I had about copy and paste 'bloggers'.
You know the ones that never write anything on their own, they just copy articles from other sites.
The biggest complaint is that then they expect you to help boost their post - ARGH!
So, stop over, give it a read, and let us know what you think. We have a few interesting comments already.
Could a Monkey Post Your Blog

Thanks!

A couple of months ago I went through the forums I belong to and changed all my sig lines. I had all my sig lines pointing at my home domain sherylloch.com. When I changed them I then included a link to my Moxxor section of this blog.

Well shortly after that Google passed out page rank and sure enough I saw a difference. My page rank was split between my home domain and the Moxxor section.

You can read my Forum posting experiment Sig Line and Mini Post on Forums - this will give you a better idea of how I am raising my page rank. I also used this information to build the blog co-op so people could benefit.

Maybe you could save yourself a bit of time.

On my post Saving Time Answering Email Questions I have posted a few simple things to do so that you can get those questions answered and back to work on other things.

Heck, if you do it right you may even cut down on how man questions come in your email.

Go ahead over and take a look, might be a simple fix you have over looked.

Bet you have been hearing the people talk about all the fires in Australia. Allot of people have been hurt, died, and their homes burned down. I know that there are so many talking about how to help the people there but, I want to give you a way to help out our furry & feathered friends.

The wildlife of Australia needs our help. Pop on over to read a bit more Animal Rescue for Australian Brush Fire Victims.
Our furry friends from down under need our help.

Do you have a Button, Badge, or Banner that you would like others to be able to easily place on their blogs?

If you do the best way to help people out is by placing a copy and paste code right under the Button so, other bloggers can just copy and paste it right then. Many bloggers can not or will not take time to write out the code. But, while you have them in the mood make it a simple effort by adding a Code Retrieval Box right under the image.

I have 3 examples of this on my blog. Resource Code Box for Banners, Badges, Buttons The code only takes a minute to do and could get you allot of links when others place your banner on their site.

Go ahead and make your Code Box so, others can help you advertise for free!
