Marketing Myself - Part Two

Yesterday, I covered my plans to drive more traffic to my Flickr page. Today, I'm covering my plans for my blog itself.

I really love this blog. I've learned so much from my own work because of it. Not only do I want it to document my experiences, but I also want it to serve as a repository for practical information for you - my audience. If you end up having greater control over your pictures as a result of this blog, well, I'll be thrilled.

So, here's what I did last year:

1) Included the blog link in my signature file

2) Embedded my blog in my LinkedIn profile

Here's what I did in 2011:

I followed the lead of some of my Facebook friends and set up a site dedicated to my blog. For now, my goal is to provide written information, so I classified it as a site. If I decide to offer services in the future, I can obviously change that. While Facebook isn't the end-all-be-all, it's very popular, and there's merit to doing it this way. I chose this as my picture:

Later in 2011, I plan to add more product recommendations and links to vendors such as Amazon. I'm holding off for now, because there's no need to do everything at once!

Till tomorrow!
