Member Survey and the FBP Forum
Good news from Food Blogger Pro! We're almost ready to launch the FBP forum.
Before we launch the forum, we want to get to know you a little bit better and give you an opportunity to get to know other members, so we put together a simple get-to-know-you survey.
Course Updates – March
What's the one thing that's constant with technology? Change. 🙂
Below are the Food Blogger Pro videos that have recently been updated.
Course: Akismet
Akismet is a comment spam prevention plugin from Wordpress.com (reminder: Wordpress.com is the for-profit branch of Wordpress).
Update: When signing up for Akismet you now need to use a Wordpress.com username to login. Wordpress.com is starting to require this for many of their products and plugins. We added a note to this video to notify viewers that the sign up process will first ask them for their Wordpress.com username before asking for additional information. Even if you use a self-hosted Wordpress.org blog you'll still need to create a Wordpress.com username.
New Course – Google Alerts
The list of responsibilities you have as a food blogger can seem endless. You're the photographer, the food stylist, the author, the recipe developer, the dish washer, the IT person, the social media manager, and the marketer. Did I miss anything? I'm sure I did.
One thing you don't have to do on your own is public relations. You can use Google Alerts to help.
