Social Bookmarking For Authority Sites

Posted 01-09-2009 at 11:07 PM by Debbie Songster

Social Bookmarking is a system that allows users / readers to store and organize bookmarks of page they enjoy on the internet. A great way to improve stickiness is to add bookmarking widgets to your site.
There are several available depending on the platform you are using.

Since we are using Joomla, a trip to Joomla.org extensions collection was the goal today.

I've used this particular plug in before and I noticed that they had updated it.

This Addition is Pretty Cool

Posted 01-08-2009 at 12:01 AM by Debbie Songster

Today I added a neat little feature that allows me to spice up any keywords I want to turn into links
It's called SnapShots. Basically when your visitor mouses over a hyperlink, SnapShots shows a mini version of the link destination.
This is pretty cool because it works with YouTube videos and the reader can play the video right in the hovering SnapShot screen.
The visitor doesn't leave your site and the video doesn't take up a ton of room on your webpage.

For right...

Adding Structure To The Website

Posted 01-04-2009 at 07:22 PM by Debbie Songster

For right now I've selected Dieting, Exercise, Nutrition, Supplements, Equipment and Mental Health as my main topics.
Using Joomla makes it very easy to change this if I want at a later date. Even if those main categories contain sub categories and articles, they can still be changed around.

I've spent a couple hours (I admit it, I was watching TV while doing it - after all its Sunday) doing some keyword research for these main topics.

I found both http://tools.seobook.com/keyword-tools/seobook/...

Adding Multimedia

Posted 01-03-2009 at 04:55 PM by Debbie Songster

Joomla has a wonderful way to load modules - its all done inside the admin
No FTP and no unzipping the files.
Just upload and the system extracts and installs.

I have some PLR videos I bought. They are kinda tacky but I'll put them up until I get something better

The multimedia plugin I'm using is free and you can see the selection at the Joomla site

I'm using allvideo 2.5.3

The site is loaded - now for all the little mundane things like changing the meta information and turning on the search engine friendly urls in the Global Configuration panel.

See that loaded quickly

Now its on to the template

I have a membership over at

I think I'll go pick out a template there to use.
