Blogging the Smart Way with Zemanta

November 12th, 2008

So one thing about Project WebMoney is the documentation part. The whole project and its progress has to be documented… why you may ask? Well for two reasons: first because I want to know for myself how things come along (and keep track of it at one neat place) and second (and that’s maybe more important) because writing about the whole project itself will help to reach the goal of the entire project!

This is because blogs are a good way to increase page ranks and drive traffic. If you plan to do such a project yourself it might be a good idea to start blogging yourself. And that’s actually quite easy.

  1. Get a blog system - I use WordPress You can either get a hosted blog there for free o r download the PHP software and install it on your webserver (really really easy).
  2. Get Zemanta. Zemanta is a great tool that makes blogging life much easier. It automatically recommends links, pictures and articles to you as you write. For example I just got the nice WordPress logo recommended that I pasted above! The great thing is that Zemanta checks for copyright with the images, so you don’t have to worry about this being an issue. You can read more about Zemanta at this short review.
