P.S. I’m going to learn about the Ping-back/Trackback to link back to your blog!
To pingback all you have to do is link to a specific blog post. Just highlight some text in your new post then click the chain icon that’s with the bold, italics etc at the top, and paste the link to the blog post where it says URL:
Hope that makes sense haha, good luck
Rohan.
Yeah, lots of sense. I’m definitely getting schooled here! LOL. All good! I’m up for learning…haha! Thanks for the baby steps tutorial!
Wow – what an honor, Rohan! Thanks!! Given that it’s now 2013.. is it too late for me to pass it on??
That’s up to you Crystal, I don’t think there’s anything in the rules that states you can’t pass it on once were in 2013. Given that it’s only January I reckon you’d get away with nominating a few people
Rohan.
CONGRATULATIONS!
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
Thank you
