Adding Content To Your Blog
The Layout of your blog is important but not as important as the content you write. When you log into your blog, select the arrow down button, next to the view blog button. Select layout, and then select Add a Gadget, each option will let you add different types of content. The great thing about the gadgets, they have short explanations and the possibilities are limitless. I will not explain each gadget but I think you should experiment with all of them. The only gadget you may have trouble with, is the HTML/JavaScript gadget. You can retrieve the code from the websites you are going to add to your site Amazon, Paypal and others. Most websites will generatate the code and then you will just copy and paste it into the content box, do not forget to add a title, and click the save button. The picture gadget will allow you to add pictures of items you want to sell. Use the Text gadget to add text about the item you want to sell. I think you get the picture, so let’s talk about adding a shopping cart.
You have used shopping carts many times to give your money to someone else, now it is your turn. Google has options to add a shopping cart, but first you should sign up for Google Checkout which is now Google Wallet. Then you will need a Google Merchant Account and then you will link both accounts and integrate them with your blog. The Google Merchant Account will allow you to upload your product data. After you add your product data, it will become available to Google Product Search, which in turn will help drive traffic to your site. You can find all the details when you go to these different entities. There is another option as well, it is a little easier but you may not get the exposure you might get with google.
Remeber, I mentioned a few post back about getting a Paypal account. If you have not gotten one by now, time to go to Paypal. They will allow you to customized and create payment buttons for your site. Once you login, select Merchant Services tab and explore your merchant options. When you are ready, you can get started by selecting the create payment button for your website. Here you will be able to create item numbers for your product, buying options and more. This also is where you will get the HTML code to paste to the layout/add gadget section of your blog. If you need more information about these two options, Google and Paypal both have much more support to offer on how to setup your shopping cart. Below, I have provided the to link to Paypal and Amazon to encourage you to get started today.
