5 CHANGES YOU NEED TO MAKE, TO BRING YOUR RESOURCES TO TPT SEARCH FRONT PAGES

I know, we are getting crazy with the changes on the TpT search engines. Don't
worry, I'm here for you. You just need to improve the product description. Yes,
I know, is not easy when you have + 200 resources. But I assure you it will be
worth.

These are the 5 tips:

1. Make your descriptions long. What I do is describe the best I can the
product. You want to use keywords but inside a paragraph. Don't throw just words
there, search engines don't like that. Also I include my Terms of Use to make
the description longer.

2. Always link to another (or more than one) of your products. Also, external
links will work, like your blog or social media. You've probably heard about
SEO. If not, follow that link to know more. It will help you to understand
better how the search engines work and how you will benefit from it.

3. Use bold, italics, underline, etc. This is not just to make the description
look clean and organized. It works for SEO too. You will not want to make all
the text bold. It works better if you only highlight keyworkds. That way, Search
engines think those words are more relevant than the others.
Here is a blog post to teach you write bold and cursive text on your product
description using HTML code by Ms. Idealistic

4. Snippets: This is the first 2 lines of your description. Its really important
you to use the most descriptive and specific words there, I mean keywords. What
I do is to repeat the resource title, using some bold text.

5. Have lots of reviews on your resources. Some people make their products free
for the first hours so they can get reviews. Also, you can join support groups
like The Teacher-Blogger Club where teachers work together to make each others
stores grow, by giving feedback and sharing their Social Media accounts.

SOCIAL MEDIA IMAGES RECOMMENDED SIZES

Follow my blog with Bloglovin
Your images need to be the correct size for each social channel to maintain
their proportion and clarity. Here is a guide to help you get the most of the
Social Media promotion.

FACEBOOK

The recommended size for your Facebook page’s cover photo is 851 pixels wide by
315 pixels tall.

Your profile photo should be 160 pixels wide by 160 pixels high.
The recommended size for the images used in your wall is 1,200 x 650 pixels
The group cover photo size must be at least 400 pixels wide by 150 pixels high

TWITTER

Your account’s header photo, the recommended size is 1500 pixels wide by 500
pixels high
Your profile photo should be uploaded at 400 pixels wide by 400 pixels high,
although it will be displayed at 200 pixels wide by 200 pixels high.
Images for posts at 1024 pixels wide by 512 pixels high

GOOGLE +

The recommended size for the cover photo is 1080 pixels wide by 608 pixels high
The smallest size you can use for your profile photo is 250 pixels wide by 250
pixels high, although a larger size is recommended.
Post photos in the news feed display in different sizes, without specific
recommendations by Google+.

If you run a Google+ community, your community’s profile photo must be a minimum
of 960 pixels wide by 540 pixels high.

YOUTUBE

Your channel art (similar to a cover photo) that’s 2560 pixels wide by 1440
pixels high.
The minimum size for your profile photo is 98 pixels wide by 98 pixels high, but
it’s recommended that you upload an image that’s 800 pixels wide by 800 pixels
high.
The recommended size for your thumbnail image is 1280 pixels wide by 720 pixels
high

Your Pinterest profile photo should be 165 pixels wide by 165 pixels high.
Since you can’t upload a specific board cover image, you need to choose a pin
within the board that has a standout section to crop.
Pins should be verticaly oriented, a 600 px wide image should be between 900 px
and 2100 px tall.

INSTAGRAM

The suggested size for your profile photo varies across multiple sources from
110 pixels wide by 110 pixels high, to 161 pixels wide by 161 pixels high.
Instagram post images have increased in size, allowing you to upload images at
1936 pixels wide by 1936 pixels high.

Just in case you want to save time I've made a complete bundle of 18 Editable
Power Point and 18 JPGs templates for you to use in your marketing strategy.

HOW TO ADD A CUSTOM “PIN IT” BUTTON TO YOUR BLOG

Blogger has changed so much since I started to use it years ago. It has come a
long way and there is so much more customization that you can do with a blogger
blog without needing a lot of coding experience/skill.

Clic to download

One of the first things I learned was adding a hover Pinterest “PIN IT” button
to my blog. It is not only is it EASY to add a hover “PIN IT” button to a
blogger blog, but you can customize your “PIN IT” button too.

This is how:

1. Design your “Pin It” graphic & save it as a PNG file. I use photoshop CS5 for
grapics, but you can easily make your own “PIN IT” button using a free
application like picmonkey.com. Or feel free to use one of my buttons (above)

2. Upload your graphic to a photo saving website. I use Photobucket or
ImageShack.

3. Go into your blogger account and go to Template > Edit HTML.

4. Scroll almost all the way down the template until you locate the </body> tag.

5. Copy the code below and insert it right above the tag.

6. To use your own button, replace the URL in line 3 with the direct link URL to
the image. Make sure to keep the quotes.

7. Save, view your blog, and start pinning.

* You can also change the position of your “PIN IT” button. Find the part of the
code that says “center” & try changing it to topleft, topright, bottomleft,
bottomright. Play around with position to see what visually suits your blog.

WHY SHOULD I HAVE A BLOG SIGNATURE?

The main aim of signature is to let others know who you’re. The signature must
reflect who you are and what you blog as much as any other visual part of your
blog. How often do you get FREE prime ad space to say whatever you want about
you? Creating a custom signature allows you to really show off your personal
style and add some fun to your posts.

You can use this easy tool to create your own (but I highly recommend to ask
your blog designer to make one for you) :
MyLiveSignature

Now, I know is hard to remember to include the signature image every time you
write a post... So, here is a little tutorial to make the signature
appear automatically in your nexts posts.

Click here yo go to the tutorial by Her & Nicole

I'd like to see your signatures!!
