Media..Adding it to your BLOG EASILY!
Hey Everyone,
I was asked by someone how easy is it to add “Media” (Images, Videos etc.) to a BLOG post. The answer is “Adding Media to your BLOG is VERY Easy!” You can see many examples of this at www.internetdollars.net, and www.homesquadcities.net.
First, Go to your wp-admin area and write a new post. Now above the text area are some icons listed “Add an Image”, Add Video”, “Add Audio”, and “Add Media”. For todays example, we’ll use…”Add an Image”. Here’s what you do:
1. Put your cursor where you want to add the Image on your post.
2. Click on the “Add Image” icon.
3. This will then take you to a screen that is titled “From Computer” Of course you will need to have an image I.e., Picture etc. saved in a file on your PC.
4. From there, depending on your version of WordPress ( I use version 2.6.3 as it is COMPLETELY Tested and Clean) you will want to select “Try the Browser Loader Instead” as it is less complicated that the “Flash Uploader”.
5. Click on “Browse” to go to the file where your image media is stored and double click on the image in your file folder. It should now be displayed in the bar next to the word “Browse” in your “From Computer” admin area window.
6. Next click on “upload”. This will then display your media image in the “From Computer” window.
7. Next go to the bottom of this page and decide if you want the image on the “None”, “Left”, Center” or “Right” alignment area where you want your image to appear, and click the button on your choice.
8. Then choose the size that you want your media image to be, either “Thumb Nail”, “Medium” or “Large”. I usually use “Medium”, but it is pretty large, but you can adjust the size. If you can click on the image and you can resize it by dragging the corners in and out it is the right size for you. I have done this on my favorite “50th Birthday Pic” below.
8. Finally, at the very bottom of the “From Computer” window, click on “Insert In Post”
You can then go to your post to see your new image. Remember you can easily resize it per the instructions above.
Now here’s a neat tool I found a few months back that will literally give you “THOUSANDS” of images to choose from called “Photo Dropper”. You can download it here: www.wordpress.org/extend/plugins/photo-dropper/
Once you have downloaded “Photo Dropper” to your PC, you will want to use the standard method of “Uploading” the Plug In via your FTP tool to your public_HTML>content>plugins folder. Then just go to your wp-admin area, select “Plugins” at the top right of your admin page, scroll down to the “Inactive Plugins” (which if you did the upload correctly) you will see “Photo Dropper. Then just go to the right and click on “Activate”. And that’s it! There are no additional settings you need to do.
When you wan to insert a Photo Dropper image into your post, just click on the “Photo Dropper” icon which is now next to your other “Media Icons”. Then for example, insert a search term like “Swans”, click on enter and choose what pictures you want of “Swans” and choose the size of the image you want to ad to your BLOG. These are REALLY quality images as you can see! I personally use “Photo Dropper” all the time.
Success in your journey,

Social Media Marketing Requires the “Sociable” Plug-In
Hey everyone,
Sorry it’s been awhile. I’ve been doing a lot of BLOG Maintenance, Overhauling and Monetizing this week on www.cheapclix.net, www.homesquadcities.net, www.healthypractices.net and www.mlm-im.com which are Blogs I maintain for my Business Partners.
Before the weekend comes around, I wanted to turn all of you on to a new Plug-In that I found from www.wordpress.org, called “Sociable”. You can download it from here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sociable/
If you,like most of us believe that “Social Media Marketing” is the wave of the future, please read on. If not…where have you been hiding? 
First understand that you have to embrace the “Social Media Marketing” concept first as a “Social Media” and then apply your marketing concepts to it AFTER establishing a following or you’ll appear to look like just another “On-Line Marketing Junkie.” Social Media sites are a place to “socialize”. Think of it as a party you’re attending. You wouldn’t go up to someone that you didn’t know and start off WITHOUT an introduction and spew your marketing program. That would be “Socially Unacceptable” wouldn’t it. Even so, there are many people who will do this in person, let alone do it inappropriately on a Social Media site like Twitter www.twitter.com, FaceBook www.facebook.com, LinkedIn www.linkedin.com and My Space www.myspace.com.
So after you understand that you first gain an audience who is interested in what you have to say, and then you “Gently” say it. I.e.,..”I’ve been working on my Blog Coaching program. Do you know anyone that would be interested in learning how to BLOG?” It’s that simple, and VERY comfortable for you and your listener.
So, what is the “Sociable” PlugIn all about? Well, here are some details:
1. It’s a FREE PlugIn from www.wordpress.org.
2. It allows you the ability to list 99 “Social Media” (Don’t try to list all of them. It would be obtuse!) website icons at the bottom of your post “Automatically” and to EVERY Post.
3. When a reader has read a post that they find of interest, they have the ability to click on an icon like “Twitter”, “FaceBook”, “Google”, “My Space” which redirects them automatically to that Social Media Home Page.
4. Then…IF THEY ARE A MEMBER of that Social Media Site, they can bookmark your post and comments on to that Social Media sites web page, as well as write a description and referral for everyone on that Social Media site to reference through that sites OWN Search Engine. Awesome!!!
Now the fun part…you don’t have to wait for someone else to Book Mark your post or comments. After you have written your post, and have published it, close your wp-admin area and go to the post URL. Then just go to the bottom of that page and click on whatever icons you wish to Book Mark your post on as well as write comments. I typically only Book Mark on the Major Social Media sites because of time constraints. And, I only list 9 icons as more than that is like having “Too many options”. In a way, it drives new users to the sites WE WANT to participate and market on. Clever???
Note: You have to sign up as a member to the sites you want to Book Mark on, but that’s only a one time issue. Actually, Google is the easiest to Book Mark on. And if you’re using “Twitter Tools” you don’t need to Book Mark there as your posts are already being “Tweeted” to your followers. Now you understand why you want and NEED more “Twitter Followers”? More on that in a later post.
I hope you enjoyed this post and ask that you give me your comments/ feedback as to what you would like to see more of on www.internetdollars.net Remember, I do this site for everyone to hopefully learn together.
Success in your journey,
Todd

I have been using the Yaro Starak Blog Mastermind Program, and Become a Blogger Premium course for over 2 months now and my activity and page rank has more than tripled in results! It’s because it is a no-nonsense approach to teaching you how to become a “World Class Blogger” from a guy that has “Been There” and “Done That” with great success. The other thing about Yaro and his program is that he shares the same concerns I do. He doesn’t want to “Pawn” off programs just for the sake of making a few bucks or in his case “the Australian Dollar” as he’s from Brisbane, Australia.
If you’re interested in the best on line coaching programs that will make you a “Pro Blogger” in as minimal time as possible, please click on the “Blog Mastermind” banner at the right and take a look for yourself. I can personally testify that my experiences with Yaro Starak have been first class all the way! If I didn’t believe in this outstanding program it wouldn’t be here at www.mlm-im.com. I promise!
Success in your journey,
Todd
