Introducing Author Badges

We have once again added a new green button to the Author Dashboard (soon we are going to need a bigger dashboard), and you know what a new green button means? It means a new MindBites Author toy for you to play with - YAY! This time, we have added the highly anticipated and requested “Author Badges.” Author Badges are great-looking promotional badges that you can easily place on your blog or website to link to your author profile and lessons on MindBites. So, let’s take a quick look at how to put these badges to work.

Author Badges

Here at MindBites we are all about making our Authors’ lives easier (check out our newest features Series Creation and Bulk Upload & Editor, as well as all of our Author Resources), and that includes helping you promote your MindBites lessons outside of MindBites.com. That is where our new Author Badges come in. You can access these mini billboards by (you guessed it) clicking the green “Get Badges” button on your Author Dashboard. We have provided you with 6 different, yet equally amazing, badges to choose from!

Simply choose the badge you would like to showcase and then use the corresponding HTML code when placing the badge on your site. It is as easy as that. Visitors to your site will click on one of these beautiful badges and be sent directly to your MindBites Author Profile Page. From there, they will be able to view and purchase all of the amazing lessons you have created.

These badges are a fantastic way to remind your visitors that you have lessons for sale in the MindBites marketplace. Not to mention, we have already done all of the hard work of creating the nifty graphics so you don’t have to.

Have questions about the Author Badges or ideas for other author features you’d like to see? Let us know by speaking out in the new and improved Author Forums. Thanks…and I am excited to see the Author Badges on your site!
