Online Diary 101
Assignment 5

By , About.com Guide

Your assignment this week is to decide how you want to update your site and set up your archive pages. Then promote your site; add meta tags and submit it to search engines. If you want to submit it to other places, go for it! The more places your site is linked to, the more people you will get coming to your site. Send me the link to your site and I just may link to it too.

Now that your site is finished and you have it promoted and perfect people will start coming and reading your site. Are you ready? You may even start receiving messages from these people. Make sure you answer them when practical to keep the "personal" part of your site live. The more they get to know you, the more they will read your site.

Post your diaries here! Let others see what you have done so far and get opinions and criticisms. Getting advice from others is the best way to create a great site.

If you have created your site based on this tutorial please send me an email with "Need Award Diary" in the subject line (without the quotes) and I will send you an award to place you your site. So, please send me your links!! Thank you!
