Welcome to the board JF!

to make most of IB there's only one formula I know : Graze...graze and graze like good cattle!

3 Grazes will give you 3 things - blissful moments, healthy socialization and exposure to your blog!

Happy grazing... Cheers!

oh...I read graze as Gaze and thought you meant we should gaze and gaze at the screen while reading others' blogs furiously so that we can expect them to read ours as a reciprocal measure. Strictly quid pro quo.

Join the Alexa review thread, pretty fun going on there and something always comes up.    

As far as contests are concerned Ambipur is happening where you can get a free sample even if you dont write.  Do take part if you can write about a perfect road trip with a four wheeler

Can you please tell me what are buttons and how to share them? 

Ranjith

Are you talking about badges or IndiVine promote buttons? Innocent

Jaseema Farook

I think Indivine promote buttons.What are they? Smile

Ranjith
from hyderabad
11 years ago

I think you already know what IndiVine is - I see that you have posted some links on IndiVine.

IndiVine is a place to share links to your blog posts.

If you like someone's post, click the promote button and the vote count for that post increases.

On the home page, posts which receive the highest number of votes are featured.

The promote button is similar to the facebook like button. Wink

Jaseema Farook
from Chennai
11 years ago

Oh yeah,I get it! That heart button right? I used them Smile There is also a facebook like button above the posts?

Ranjith
from hyderabad
11 years ago

Yes, the heart button.

The facebook like button is the same as the FB like buttons you see on other websites.
