Online Marketing Tools: Likes, Share Buttons, Font Sizes, Sitemap

Online marketing tools.

There are so many, it’s a never ending learning experience. In this blog post, I will talk about tools:
  1. to get likes on your Facebook Fan Page.
  2. to have share buttons on your website.
  3. to change the font sizes on your WordPress blog.
  4. to have a sitemap on your WordPress blog.
Don’t worry, I won’t get into tech mumbo jumbo, I am lazy about that myself. I will show you what I did in 3 videos. I will put some words in the blog post too, since it’s better for SEO to have at least 400 words. Here's the first video, where I show where to find and how to install the social plug-in from Facebook.
Here's the 2nd video, to get the AddThis share buttons for free and easily add them on your website, if, like me, your pages are not all created by your WordPress blog. All you need is a minimum of HTML skills. By the way, something very nice you will discover on the AddThis website the next day after you install the share buttons, it's statistics about how many shares and clicks you got for each button. Very cool.
Here's the 3rd video. I'm not sure it works with all WordPress themes. Let me know if it's not the case. I heard it doesn't with the Evolve theme, which is pretty elaborate.
Now, why would you want a sitemap? It's my friend Chris Bailey who pointed out to me the importance of having one. Some reasons are:
  • Some people enjoy seeing there's one, when they want to find a page and can't.
  • As I mention in the video, search engines love it.
  • It makes your site look more professional, in my opinion.
Here's the 4th video.


The link I was trying to find in the video is: http://beproactivenow.net/sitemap.xml Pretty easy to remember, isn't it?

Many online marketing tools are.

I hope one or more of these videos will be helpful to you. See my "Videos" pages where I cover other online marketing topics with screencast videos. When I find the time, I will add a page to show my network marketing videos. These are live videos, done for the fun of it, with the objective of being duplicatable. As I mentioned before, I didn't have the courage to write 1,600 words, which would have been the thing to do had I done one blog post for each video.

Online marketing tools: Don't leave your site without them.
