Social Bookmarking Magic

The power of social bookmarking has already been realized by many online marketers and web masters. If you are looking for a way to promote your site that is easy, social and viral social bookmarking is one of the best ways for you to utilize the power of the internet to drive new traffic and of course new customers to any web site of your choosing. Using social bookmarking to promote web sites and drive traffic has been though its hay day and is still as important today as it has been for the past 5 years or more.

The initial power of using these social bookmarking sites lie in their high page rank and the fact that many of them do give a real no follow direct link back to your web site. This means you can use these to get free links! Many people do not understand how important that this is in the overall scheme of things, but trust us this is big. The next thing that happens when you add your web site to these bookmarking sites is that they become instantly exposed to hundreds if not thousands of other people looking for web sites that interest them. The direct traffic from social bookmarking can be huge if your information is of interest to a wide variety of web surfer and it has a catchy title.

Social Bookmarking Equals Good Search Engine Standings

The most important benefit these sites offer is a solid boost in your web sites ranking in most search engines. The most recent releases of Google Caffeine and other search engines own algorithms are using these social sites to help them figure out the human factor in web site popularity, so if your site is not listed on Web 2.0 and Social Bookmarking sites you are definitely missing out big time.

Make Amazing Looking Images With Round Corners

There are many ways to make your web site stand out from the others. If you have been viewing other web sites to get ideas of what you want to do with your own web site, you may have ran across these cool looking images that have rounded corners. These images have become very popular in the Web 2.0 world and they can be generated using a script on your web site to make a mask over the image, but there is a much easier way if you have Photoshop.

Creating these very attractive Web 2.0 images using Photoshop only takes a couple of steps and if you want to make your own unique images that can be used anywhere this is the way to go. You can learn more about making easy round corner images here or by checking out the source of this information here : Photoshop Round Corner Image Tutorial

So if you are ready to get started, just open up Photoshop and follow along with the guide below that was originally posted here : http://matthom.com/archive/2004/09/10/fast-rounded-corners-in-photoshop


How To Create Your Own Images With Round Corners

Within Photoshop, take a look at the Layers palette. The photo should be on it’s own layer, and we’re going to create another layer right on top of that.

On this layer, we are going to draw a rectangle, with the rounded rectangle tool.

Draw the rectangle on the new layer you created.

It doesn’t matter what the fill color is right now. Just try to center the rounded rectangle as best you can. Essentially, whatever falls inside this rectangle will be included in the picture.

Now, go back to the Layers palette, and select the layer that you just drew the rounded rectangle on. Double click on that layer.

The Layer Style palette should open up.

In the Advanced Blending area, slide the Fill Opacity percentage down to 0%.

Back in the Layers palette, click on the Paths tab.

With the current Path selected, click on the little arrow button, in the upper right corner of the Layers palette, and select "Make Selection..." from the select list.

In the "Make Selection" option box, make sure Feather Radius is set to 0 pixels, and Anti–aliased IS checked.

Hit OK. You should get a nice, smooth selection of the rounded rectangle that you created.

Almost done

Now, with the selection still pending action, go to Edit, Copy Merged. Create a new document, and leave the dimensions alone (they should reflect the copy you just made). In the new document, go to Edit, Paste. There you go!

The image should now have nice, smooth corners, instead of the sharp, boxy ones it had before.
