Promote Your Content Via Sharing
by Rick • Filed under Publicize • March 16, 2007
A wise man once said, “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” Basically this means that sharing is good and you want to be good, don’t you? Why of course you do especially since sharing your content may help you to increase your site traffic and feed subscribers (your mileage may vary).
There are three services that reside under the publicize tab that can help you share to the max (yup - I just said “to the max”): 1) Headline Animator 2) SpringWidgets Skin 3) BuzzBoost
Headline Animator allows you to create a custom animated gif that scrolls through your latest headlines. We can even tell you where your Headline Animator is being displayed and how many times it’s being displayed. If you’re a stats junkie like me you’ll love the extra numbers.
SpringWidgets, as referenced here, allows you to create a very portable widget that contains your content.
BuzzBoost allows you to create a snippet of javascript that will resyndicate your content the way you tell it to (no, you can’t really talk to it - you need to check boxes, etc. from inside the application) and it is stylable via CSS so it can blend in anywhere.
You can go sharing crazy as I did or you can simply choose one or more of these services to offer to your readers to allow them to promote you. So get sharing today and make a life so-to-speak.
