Linking your Flickr account to your WordPress blog means you can turn each new Flickr image into a blog post without even leaving Flickr. Just create a photo category on your website and make it the default category, add your blog to Flickr, then click on the 'Blog This' button above any of your images to create a new post.
Wordtube is a WordPress plugin which works with the JW Flash Video Player allowing you to embed videos, music and other media files on your website. It is easy to use and looks clean and professional. Website visitors can view the files without leaving your website or having to download any special software.
The new Genesis theme framework from StudioPress has widgetised not only the sidebar but also the entire homepage and even the right hand side of the header. This means that you create your homepage layout by dragging a combination of different widgets into the various homepage sections in the Presentation section of your website admin. For example, if the theme's homepage layout is split into top left, top right and bottom, you just drag widgets into each of these areas.
If you're spending time and money on catalogues, sale flyers and print advertising, don't forget to add promotions, sales, events and new products to your website too. Adding graphics or changing colours on your homepage, header or sidebars wont take you or your web designer long. These days, there's a whole generation of people (including myself) who visit a website to find products and services or just to check things out before they ever visit a shop or purchase a product.
