WordPress This is the home page of my WordPress blog. As you can see, I have customized it with a theme, my own fonts, my own colors, and a header image.

Blog Posts This is a section of my favorite blog post that I have written. As you can see, there are pictures, links, and if you go to the actual blog post, you will see that I also have a drop quote. I have also included videos in some of my other blog posts. I have added categories and tags to my blog posts as well. Seen on the right side of the post you will find my widgets, such as the search bar, the subscribe button, and the links to my Facebook and Twitter.

Blog Posts As you can see insinuated by the arrow, I have a total of 10 blog posts. Some of them include images, some include videos, and some include links. Some of the blogs covered assigned topics from the course, such as How To Make the Perfect Title For Your Blog Posts, which addressed an article of Mari Smiths. Also, Mobile and Location-Based Marketing addressed a video of Deltina Hays.

Feed Reader The RSS feed reader account that I made was through feedly.com. I subscribed to seven different feeds: CMT News, The Etsy Blog, Dessert for Two, My Baking Addiction, Journal Of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, The Journal Of Bone & Joint Surgery, and This Way to Paradise.

Twitter This is my Twitter account. Since my WordPress blog was linked to my Twitter, my posts showed up on my account (you can see my most recent blog post at the bottom of the picture shown below). Also, in my most tweet I included an image, I made some hashtags, and I also tagged some friends.

Facebook This is both my personal Facebook profile as well as my Social Media Facebook page. Both of the pages have my WordPress blog posts linked to them, so my posts show up on both of them. As indicated by the arrow on the Social Media Facebook page, a Contact Us button directs visitors to my WordPress blog.

LinkedIn This is my LinkedIn account, which is one of my favorite social media sites. It is the professional site of social media. I have joined a few different groups, one being Social Media. Also, I posted one of my blog posts to LinkedIn. Being able to include all of my career and education experience for the possibility of job opportunities is something that I really enjoy being a part of.

Pinterest This is my Pinterest account. You can see that I have 12 boards and am following 23 pinners. Also, the pin in the middle of the picture is one that I uploaded myself. It includes a link that takes pinners directly to a blog post that I summarize in the description of my pin.

Flickr This is the Flickr account that I created. I have uploaded two images of my own and created one album. I also have used other peoples Flickr images within my own blog posts.

YouTube This is the YouTube channel that I created. I have uploaded a video of my own, as shown below. I have subscribed to three channels that I was interested in: Bobby Bones, The Ellen Page, and Rose State College. I also favorited some videos to make a playlist of my own. I was even able to customize my channel and add a link to my blog post, as indicated by the arrow below.

Delicious This is the Delicious account that I created. I have added five bookmarked links to my profile. I have added my own descriptions and tags, which can be seen at the bottom of each post as well. Also, at the top of my profile you will see that I have integrated my Wordpress blog with my Delicious profile.

Digg This is my Digg account. As you can see, these are the posts that I have saved, or the posts that I digg. I also added some of my own tags to these articles.

HootSuite This is my HootSuite account. This site is neat because it links together all of your social media accounts. As you can see, I have separated mine by the tabs at the top, shown by the arrow. I have my WordPress blog, my Twitter account, and my LinkedIn account all on my HootSuite account.

Engaging With Other Students Blog Posts As you can see, I have responded to three of my classmates blog posts: Tori Ukpaka, Christine Napier, and Jasmine McKinney.

Interacting on D2L As you can see, I have created my own post on the D2L Facebook Obsession discussion, as well as responded to a classmates post.

Overall, I learned a lot of new information in this course. I was exposed to things online that I have not explored or even heard of before, and it was a very interesting experience. I cannot wait to utilize all of my new social media accounts in the future, as well as continue to post on my blog even after this class concludes!
