Perhaps you would like to add your business logo, or personal image to the signature of your emails?

Here’s how to do it in Gmail.:

1. Sign in to your Gmail account.

2. In the upper right hand corner, next to your e-mail address, there is an image of a gear. Click on the gear and choose “Mail Settings” from the drop-down box.

3. From the “General” Settings page, find the “Signature” area. Under the option of “No Signature”, you will see a drop down showing all of the e-mail addresses you have set up to come into your Gmail account. You can create a separate signature for each of these addresses. Select the one you want.

4. Select the e-mail address and there will be a WYSIWYG edit box. You can simply write the signature as you wish it to appear in the box, and you may want to include hyperlinks to your website or social media accounts. ( highlight the words to be linked and then click the chain link to bring up the box to type in the URL, starting with http:// , of where you want the link to take you. And it is done)

5. To add an image, select that and a box comes down asking you for the Internet address of the image that you want to insert. Input the full URL to your image. (If you don’t have one published, you will need to upload to your website. If your site is built in WordPress, just upload your image to your media center and copy the link url afterwards.

6. Test by sending yourself an email from the email address associated with the signature.

RSS(Really Simple Syndication) feeds are one of the common methods for getting updates to content, articles, and news from various websites. An RSS feed is a special address that allows a subscriber to access constantly updating information from a blog, website, podcast, or other source. Your WordPress site automatically turns your posts into a feed that can be accessed through a feedreader. Also, you can plug your website’s feed into Google Feedburner and it will create a custom RSS feed out of your site’s content. Once you know what your site’s RSS feed is, you can share it and people can use it to subscribe to your site’s content.
