Web Series Today: Tips for new blog authors

1. Before you post on Web Series Today, be sure to read the guidelines provided to you. In particular make sure that you understand that the size of embed that best fits the blog is 640 wide.  Also note that the standard format for tags/labels on the Blogger platform is regular words separated by a "," rather than the #hastag format used on Twitter.

2. Be sure to share your post on social media sites.  If you make a post according to the guidelines then in most cases a tweet will automatically go out on the Web Series Today twitter account (https://twitter.com/webseriestoday). Make sure you share this, or otherwise share, not only your own post but the posts of other authors.  That way we all work together to grow the community.

3. Ask those who participate or simply watch your series to support Web Series Today. By growing Web Series Today we not only help your show but we support all who participate in the space.

4. On the right you will find links to other areas of the Web Series Today environment: FaceBook, Google+, Twitter, Reddit etc.  Be sure to explore the entire environment and participate where appropriate.

5. Make your post interesting both in terms of information and graphical appearance.  Pictures and embedded video greatly enhance posts.  Also do not limit yourself to just posting about one show.  There is a lot going on in the community and the mission of Web Series Today is to keep the community up to date with what is going on in the World of Web series.  The degree to which you participate in that mission will determine how effective Web Series Today is and how large we can grow the community.

6. If you are not already a blog author please sign up to become one by following the link on the right of the blog.  Participation is a key part of Web series and the more you participate the more we grow the community.
