(Blogging CD Part 3 of 3) Thanks Janelle for another great jam packed podcast on profitable blogging for your business, just like blogging parts 1 and 2 the information in part 3 is over the top and will have to be reviewed several times. Thank you for the insight on how powerful blogging can be as a marketing tool when coupled with keywords and content but more so thanks for the coaching and guidance on blogging from start to finish.Scott
Janelle is an amazing teacher. No matter how long (or short) a time youve been blogging, you are guaranteed to learn something from these classes. Her focus on promoting your business stays laser sharp, so you wont find yourself buried under technical trivia. But you will learn the right words to use as links in your posts (as always – think like a customer!), the right destination for your links, and the secret way to keep eBay links fresh even after auctions close and listings expire. Like her previous series on Profitable Keywords, this blogging series is a gold mine for anyone who owns an online business.

Product Description
Push WordPress past its limits and take the basic blog into an entirely new blogosphere
Smashing Magazine is the world’s most popular resource for web designers and developers, boasting more visits than leading Web sites and blogs. Smashing WordPress is the ultimate guide to WordPress, one of the hottest topics on the web today. Written by a WordPress expert, this exciting book breaks the barriers of blogging basics and shows you how to push WordPress to its limits-and beyond.
As a free and open source platform, WordPress has quickly grown to be the most popular choice for bloggers and it is being pushed beyond its original purposes to power some fairly advanced sites. Its loyal community is constantly developing new plugins and themes to extend its functionality, taking WordPress to a new level of popularity.
You’ll learn how WordPress can serve as a CMS, a forum, a photo gallery, an e-commerce site, and more. Helpful and clear instructions explain how to build beautiful WordPress themes, create custom login forms and admin themes, and integrate theme options.
- WordPress is an open source platform traditionally used for blogging only-but capable of so much more
- Explains how to maximize the power of WordPress and use it as a photo gallery, an e-commerce site, a forum, and more
- Walks you through building plugins, integrating WordPress with the social Web, creating custom login forms and admin themes, and building WordPress projects for SEO
