Add Tags/Categories To Posts
Blogging Tips
When you create a post, please add tags and categories. If you tag your post well with unique and specific key words, your viewers will be able to find your work online. I made a nice sale yesterday because a Russian publication found a portrait that I shot of Michail Gorbachev on my site that they wanted to use in their publication.
Categories are useful to organize your posts. It’s an easy way for you to curate your site to help your viewers to see the type of work that you publish. If you are using your blog for multiple BU journalism classes, please use JO304 as a category so that I can find everything that you publish for this class.

This video was cut with Premiere Pro. I am switching from Final Cut Pro to teach additional editing platform to Boston University journalism students.
