Style Bloggers’ News: 10 must-click links

Pin It

A little while back I wrote a post called WINKS (weekend links). It was basically a round-up of interesting articles I’d read and wanted to share. But the name WINKS didn’t sit too well with me, so here is attempt two at this category with a new name: Style Bloggers’ News. Thoughts?

Never tried Woopra? It's fascinating.

1. Create a custom Facebook tab

This post by Headway Videos is slightly technical, but useful. Shows you how to customise an FB tab using a WordPress plugin.

 

2. When Gmail goes ga-ga

A post by Liberty London Girl on what happens when – gasp! – the content of your Gmail vanishes.

3. Using your email with Google Apps

Confession time! I had no idea you could set up your email using Google Apps! Here Savvy Blogging shows you how.

4. Help! WordPress crashed!

How you can avoid “ZOMG! What happened?!” moments when upgrading WordPress. Right here on The Blog Stylist.

5. Analytics know-how

If you’ve ever wondered about the basics of Google Analytics, check out these vids by Grass Roots Internet Strategy.

6. Woo-woo-Woopra

Never heard of Woopra? It’s an analytics program that allows you to watch – in real time* – which pages your visitors are clicking on, and where they came from. Warning: It’s addictive.

7. Recent discovery

TinyLetter lets you sign up for, create, and send newsletters for free! Its functions are very basic, but if you’re a budget-savvy blogger who’s been holding off on sending newsletters for money reasons, check it out.

8. Style X

Fashionable Marketing.Me has the deets on Style X (pronounced Style By) – the new fashion component of the South By South West (SXSW) music, interactive and film event in Austin, Texas.

9. Q&A time

I’m now doing Q&A-style posts. Got a burning blogging question? Ask it here and I may answer it in a post.

10. Nothing to do with blogging

Forbes goes inside Jennifer Aniston’s $42 million dollar home. I have to say, it’s not quite what I imagined… still, if I had that kind of money to spare…

*I could be watching YOU right now ;)

    Thanks Bree – will be checking out these. I’m having issues at the moment with backing up my site as the plug-in I use used to turn the back up into a zip file, now it doesn’t. And the file is way to big to email without being zipped!
