PROBLEM: You start a new thread showing your latest engraving. After a few days of admiration and comments, it drops off the page, rarely to be seen again unless someone finds it in a search.

SOLUTION: Blog it. When you make a new post there's a BLOG THIS POST option which saves your post to your personal blog with a couple of mouse clicks. Then members can go to your blog and see your favorite posts without having to search for them.

When you Blog This Post you must also re-attach your images with the Manage Attachments button. A minor inconvenience.

I can think of several members who could really benefit from blogging special posts to make it easy for members' future reference. You can also direct customers and Facebook friends to your blog by sending them the link. Lots of possibilities :)

We now have a few people saving posts to their blogs. :)

Don't forget to tag your blogs with keywords to increase your exposure in forum searches.

Incidentally, you can save any post to your blog, not just your own. This is a very convenient way to save forum posts that you'd like to refer back to without having to search for them.

As a reminder, when you click BLOG THIS POST, be sure you're on the actual post you want to save, not one before or after it.
