Blogging for the Beginning Beginner.

Before I get into what I learned from one of the resources in the book, I have to share the experience I just had with trying to use SEO. It really isn't all that exciting but it is worth sharing for others to learn from. I had posted two videos to a new Youtube channel I started for my cheerleading gym.

Blog Focus and Promotion

My blog has really gone through some changes this past week!  I gave it an updated look, added more posts, changed up the widgets and invited a guest blogger.  In this week's David Meerman Scott's reading, I wanted to focus on the Blogging Ethics Guidelines he writes about on pages 240-241.  Now that I am part of this blogging community, I want to contribute the right way.  So "transparency, privacy, disclosure, truthfulness and credit" are now top of mind every time I create a new post and comment on other blogs.
