Marketing Yourself on the Web

During these weeks we have been learning on how to market ourselves on the web. We learned ways to make people follow our web pages and how to get feedback. I learned how to make a QR which was pretty easy and I used to think it was a hard thing to do. We also advertised in our forms like on Facebook and Twitter. Advertising yourself and the things that you have created is important because it lets people see what you have to offer and it also differentiates you from others. It helps especially when you are looking for a job online. People can search you up and see what you can bring to the company and it makes you stand out in a way other people don't. That is what I have learned during this week in class.

Photoshop !

Throughout the week we have been working in Photoshop. Although this was not new to me, due to the fact that I had taken a Photoshop class before; it was nice to explore photoshop further. It is important to know Photoshop because you never know when it can come in handy. You can use it if you have a webpage and you want to add things up or you can create a poster. It is basically a fun thing to use as well! You can create and edit practically anything in photoshop. I enjoyed it very much and it was nice to go back. I know there is still more to explore but that well happen later on. I really love the brush tool and all the imaged you can create like the grass or even leafs. The only thing that I did have a hard time with was with the magnetic lasso tool! That was a big pain and it did get me frustrated it but at the en I did get the hang of it. I can't wait to learn more in Photoshop.

What I've Learned About Blogs

Throughout the course of last week we looked into what a blog is. During that week I learned different things of what a blog really is. Just because it has pictures and paragraphs does not mean it is a blog. Some of the things that I learned is that when you have a blog you must be dedicated to it. You can't make a blog on cooking and you post something about sports. It is better if you stick to one topic on your blog. You have people that will follow your blog and they expect posts and pictures about the topic they are following. I have learned that blogs are very helpful. A blog can help to spread awareness on a certain topic or it can also help businesses and they can advertise on a blog. You can share new things with other people and you can benefit from what other people share with you. It is fun to have a blog and it is also fun to follow one. You can learned new and exciting things from other people!
