 What is Pinterest?

Uff ... maybe you put an example, imagine that you plan to decorate a room. Surely you begin looking for some ideas in decorating magazines and cut out some of the photos, that's what is called making a PIN. When trimmed the photos you put on a corkboard, or in the refrigerator or in a notebook of meeting, this is called Dashboard.

Words on Pinterest you can create different boards or bulletin boards for through cuts collected go Pins (photos or videos) that ultimately link to the page or the original post.

As a social network, can follow or follow one or more of your boards. Similarly you can follow other people.

Why Pinterest is important for my blog?
Until now we have always emphasized that the content (text) is the most important for Blogger because on them depends the positioning of the blog, now if we lucirnos within options should also enhance the images included in our items, this makes excel, internalize that every post on our blog is like a page from a magazine, so the end result is much more professional and all options and Blogger makes an explosive combination.


One last tip, variety is the spice, so create your hobbies and tastes in parallel with the boards of your blog.

How to Include a Print Button on Each Blog Post?

Depending on what type of blogs can make much sense to print a button associated with each entry. Imagine a blog of recipes or craft blog. Besides we can also print PDF download post.

Of all the services I recommend PrintFriendly evaluated (click to see the print button standard service). You can customize the button and get a code for Web, Blogger and WordPress. Once set, clicking opens a new window PrintFriendly as if it were a preview. The user can choose to print, export to PDF or send by email. You can even remove text. We also explain how to put it on the blog (step 7 later in this tutorial).

Once seen, if the result is what you expect you're done. If instead you want to improve the code or customize the icon with another chart keep reading.

Steps to improve PrintFriendly code and add a custom icon

    1.Get the print icon. I recommend the service www.iconfinder.net
    2. Choose either the size of the icon, I select is 24px * 24px
    3.Download in PNG format to your computer
    4. Now we host the PNG. I recommend Google Sites (as we saw when we talk about social icons on the blog), which allows you to create a website and host files and then access them from the blog, follow these steps:

• Enter Google Sites
•  Open your site or create a new one (remember that the site you have to be public)

• Go to Manage Site option from which you can upload attachments.

• Add the printer icon you have chosen.

    5.Now look at the PrintFriendly Enhanced HTML (a single bond):

        <a expr:href='"http://www.printfriendly.com/print?url=" + data:post.canonicalUrl' target='_blank'> <img alt = 'Print or Export PDF' src = 'https://sites.google.com/site/iniciablog/PDF24.png' /> </ a>

             As selected in the red since indicate the url of your site and the PNG
       
    6.Copy the snippet of HTML to a notebook to customize it.
    7. When you have it, copy it and go to the Template tab and then HTML Editor
    8. For safety make a copy of the template "Download Full Template".

    9.Search <b:include data='post' name='shareButtons'/> (use internal search ).Press CTRL + F
    10.Paste the code you copied right below the line you have found.
    11.Save the template and view the blog.


On my case the meaning of that button is that you can serve you and apply it successfully. Leave your comments. Thank you.

What is a Blog?
A blog is nothing more nor less than a diary. This diary can be personal or have a more commercial and corporate.

Every time you write something new you do it in a new page or what is called Post or input. , The most important is the content, quality and should be attractive both in substance and in form.

What things do I can write on the blog?

    On products, news, events and milestones of your store or business.
    About gardening, photography, sports, crafts, mechanics.

    About family, children.

In each entry as part of the text, you can insert photos, videos and audio.

Which is more important the content or design of the blog?
Certainly both are important but should give priority to the content must be original content as I said before (no copies) and quality. You must be clear about what to write, who you're going to lead, shape and purpose of the blog. Finally you must be consistent and write if not every day in several a week. Actually the latter is the most important, how to write or who the wrath perfected over time. With regard to design what angers slowly improving but can not be the priority.

Google Blogger 
Now you need a manager for the blog, and that is when I introduce Google Blogger. This service (Blogger), you can create blogs, create and edit entries or post, customize the design of it, you can configure it to indicate whether such a blog is public or private to certain people ... The most important thing, so free and also over time your post will appear in the Google search engine.

Therefore we conclude that a blog is the most economical way to have an Internet presence, and is applicable to all whether you are an individual, entrepreneurial, independent or company. If you want to create a blog user community should be the focus of your strategy.
