Bling Out Your Blog | Self Paced Version
Our most popular class, Bling Out Your Blog has been revamped with updated material and a new companion workbook. The class is divided into two parts. The first part of the class will teach you the basics of blogging using both BLOGGER and TYPEPAD. We'll walk you through setting up your blog and configuring it to fit your needs. After that, you'll learn how to bling out your blog by adding custom designed headers, banners, fun fonts, widgets and more! The class includes custom designed backgrounds, headers and icons for you to use and we'll also teach you how to design your own! (See below for a full list of class material)
New to the class this year is a 50+ page companion workbook designed to educate you in the business of blogging.
We're going to let KA tell you a little more about it:
Hi everyone! In addition to running Little Light Studio, I also have a day job. I work as a social media consultant, which means that various businesses hire me to come on board and set up their online presence. One of the first things I do is create a customized "blog package" for them in which I create their business blog and then educate them on how to use specific keywords and other search engine optimization techniques in order to expand their brand's visibility and grow their client base.
I've created this workbook to help you do the same thing. In it, you'll read about the different techniques you can use to define your brand, grow your readership, and use social media to your benefit as well as how to monetize your blog. You'll also learn how to best use your blog to promote your business, get press coverage and gain new clients. The workbook is set up as a combination of lessons and assignments and includes 52 writing prompts so that you won't have to worry about writer's block!
The workbook on it's own sells for $15 and the information is expansive, so we're excited to include it for free for students of Bling Out Your Blog 3!
The class will also include customized headers and banners, and a quick reference e-booklet containing multiple HTML codes!
