There was a time when the only 2 things certain in life were death and taxes. Now I think it's time to add a 3rd item to that short list... changes at ActiveRain!
A few weeks ago in my post A Look Ahead, I mentioned that I'd be bringing out a whole bunch of stuff to help you guys market yourself, build your brand and stand out from the crowd. Just as ActiveRain has grown a lot in the past few months, The Art Of Marketing You is also branching out in many new directions.
Since I've received a lot of requests for blog headers to fit the new AR Outside blog format, I thought I'd release a few to start with and will be adding many more in the weeks ahead.
The really nice thing about the new AR blog format is that these headers will fit perfectly (960 pixels wide X 134 pixels high) on both the standard Rain blogs as well as the Outside blogs.
Think of these graphics as a starting point. Feel free to add your own text on top of it to personalize it for your own needs. This batch includes 2 new blog headers as well as 3 that I created a few months ago but have been resized for the new Rain blog dimensions. Here is a preview of the first 5...
Think Green # 1
Sphere Of Influence # 1
Rain Rocks! (resized to 960 X 134)
RE/MAX (resized to 960 X 134)
Keller Williams (resized to 960 X 134)
You can see and download the full size blog headers here
I'm making these graphics available to the Rain community free of charge. Anyone involved directly in the real estate industry including RE agents, brokers, stagers, lenders, etc... are welcome to use these on either the standard Rain blog, the Outside Rain blog or both.
*Note: These graphics are not to be edited, copied or used in any way by graphic artists or blog designers.
For more info on Outside Blogs...
If you're one of the few people who hasn't heard the news about ActiveRain Outside blogs, take a look at How To Create an ActiveRain Outside ActiveBlog - 10 Easy Steps and 5 Important Tips - Outside Blogs by Brad Andersohn.
Stay tuned, I have a ton of new stuff coming out this year including more graphics that you can use here in the Rain, out on the web for your own sites & blogs, calendar templates, online games, etc, etc, etc... Enjoy!
