Let’s be honest for a second here. When it comes to quality, a large amount of social media content posted by brands isn’t good. In fact, in terms of subject matter, copy, photo quality, and more, much of the content is downright cringeworthy.
Here’s the good news, though: Most of the solutions to these mistakes are quick, easy fixes. To illustrate this, here are the things your audience doesn’t want to see you post on social media.

Comments and feedback on my post on bookshelf plugins for WordPress taught me that many authors still build a critical part of their website, the pages for each of their books, by hand.

Here’s the checklist I put together to make sure I don’t miss important details. Do let me know in the comments if I left something off.
This was an amazing videos with great tips I’ve been saying all along.
