Last night I tried to do two things. One was to find an affiliate product which I wanted to add to my blog. I became an affiliate for amazon. Went through the sign up process but could not add any products. I will take another look at getting that done today. Amazon talks about a store etc but I simply wish to add a few products right now. Adding a store is only viable if one has ones own domain name. That is what I understood from my reading.
The second major task was to create a video. I looked at various free video creation tools but still did not manage to produce a video. I intend to give it another go today. I thoght about getting a few images and then using movie maker to create a sequence. That is easily said then done.
This morning I found a news item which talked about the subject of "How to guit smoking" . The most interesting revelation was that president Obama has quit his 30 year habit. So, what I did was to talke about smoking first, I added a graphic image of what harm smokers are putting themselves through, and then added the quit smoking story to my blog post.
The last thin I did was to go to twitter and announce it. I did mention Obama in my twitter one liner. Let's hope that helps my ranking.
On the ranking front, there is no sign yet. I think I need to add videos about this blog to youtube and other services like that to help my blog. But, my gut feeling is that I need a few videos to do that.
One final thing that I have been doing on my blog journal blog with each post is to add links to the main quit smoking 4th july blog. I will explain that in my next post on the blog journal.
