mAdvertising, Mainstream Media & Adult Oriented Beauty
I am addicted to Florian Meimberg and her blog mAdvertsing (built on Wordpress of course). Pictures are worth a thousand words. This beautiful, fashion/lingerie campaign start. Beautiful Florian, and congrats on the arrival of Jonas. 
read comments (0)The Best Facebook & Wordpress Plugins for Adult Bloggers
Adult clients/business are embracing social media (hopefully I have something to do with that) and are finding creative ways to engage with their customers through Facebook and Twitter. They are also starting to use LinkedIn to expand their professional networks in lateral and vertical markets. And that is exciting. This month alone, my professional LinkedIn has grown by 25 contacts!
Many of them have asked me, “How do I integrate my social media into my current site/blog? I don’t want to just LINK to my profile, I want to make it all interactive.” Especially as it relates to Facebook.
Note: More and more adult bloggers & business owners are moving to Wordpress for their blogging platform because of simplicity it provides as a content management system.
So I am doing my usual wordpress hunting for better than semi-sweet articles on the latest and greatest wordpress “addie thingies,” aka plugins/widgets, and I found The Fatty Talks by Adam Hirsch. Okay, the name alone cracks me up. I like what Mr. Hirsch posted as the best plugins/widgets for embedding facebook to your wordpress blog.
WORDPRESS.COM ON FACEBOOK:
WordPress - Create a Wordpress.com account AND access your account from directly in Facebook. Publishes from Wordpress.com accounts into Facebook News Feeds, Mini-Feeds and adds a box in your profile that is customizable.
- Sorry, I hate it, not a very good thing, only works for like 12% of people.
WORDPRESS.ORG ON FACEBOOK:
WordBook - This plugin essentially allows you to cross-post to your Facebook account directly from your WordPress blog.
- It’s nifty and works really well. You can just import the RSS Feed from your Wordpress blog to Facebook though.
FACEBOOK ON WORDPRESS.ORG
Facebook Photos for Wordpress Plugin - by TanTan Noodles - “This WordPress
plugin provides easy access to your Facebook photos by allowing you to easily post them to your blog. After you have linked the plugin to your Facebook account, photos you upload to Facebook will automatically show up in a convenient ‘Photos’ tab in your WordPress powered blog (see screenshot below). You can choose to use either small, medium, or large sized versions of your photos.”
- It really cool if you are anti-Flickr. But Flickr has an automatic integration widget for the free .Wordpress.com blogs. Get the Flickr on, even if it is Yahoo. Yahoo is anti-adult as most of us know, but we will still use Flickr and Upcoming because they are cool.
WordPress Fotobook - Fotobook is a WordPress plugin that will link to your Facebook account and import all of your photo albums into a page on your Wordpress installation.
- Works very well, especial for the new user. Nothing all that special, see notes above.
Display in Facebook Live Users and and Latest Posts - Lester Chan created his own plugin for his Gamerz blog, however, he is offering the source code.
- It’s really cool. If you have the skills, get this.
StatusPress - Plugin that takes your Facebook status updates and puts them onto your WordPress blog
- Another one the works out of the box, but is very twitter like. Use Twitter Tools if you are into micro-blogging. And use the first version, all the later versions give me issues of one kind or another. They are fixable, but problematic.
Add To Facebook Plugin - Adds to the bottom of every post an “add to Facebook” link
- Ummm, just use ShareThis, or Social Bookmarking, unless you ONLY want the Facebook add button. But why would you do that?
Thanks Mr. Hirsch for the outline. Loving it.
Free Wordpress Templates Can Kill Your SEO
We have all downloaded and used free templates for skinning our Wordpress blogs, heck, my original design was a fantastic them called “The Wind Cries Mary.”
When you download free templates, all of them have links in the footer. Sometimes, these links are visible and located directly under the designer’s name and sometimes they are black on black and your can’t see them. Go into your blog and click Design>Theme Editor. In the theme editor, click on Footer.PHP. If you look very carefully, will find them there. Packing the footer with links is known as link stuffing and is considered a spam technique.
Link stuffing can get your into major trouble. Googles terms say NO F*UCKING SPAM. And they mean it. Tons of non-relevant links in the footer could violate Google’s terms of use and get your site banned and you would not even know it.
Since Wordpress is an OpenSource application and most components are entirely free, you are responsible for what you download. You need to make sure your components are SEO friendly.
Can you remove these footers? Sometimes, but sometimes they are encrypted and you are better off buying a template and customizing it.
SEO Techniques for Wordpress Blogs
Most adult bloggers use Wordpress as a publishing platform. One of the beauties of Wordpress is its incredible way to not only manage blog content, but facilitate your own SEO as well. The plugin I most recommend for anyone is HeadSpace, it’s wonderful plugin that makes SEO consistent.
