Raise your business profile with a Biznik badge
We’ve created a new way for you to raise your profile on Biznik: a small badge that you can post into the sidebar of your blog or website. Displaying the badge drives extra traffic to your profile, and also helps raise the overall page rank of the Biznik social network by creating an inbound link from another site, which benefits all of us.
To use these, just head to the badge page and grab the code (after logging in it will be personalized for you automatically). Then open up your html editor or open your blog’s template editor, and paste the code into the sidebar wherever you want it to appear.
If you really want to take it up a notch, you can add this badge to the footer of every email you send, in a signature file, which will look like this:

Pretty cool, hey? I’ve created an html file that I am using for this purpose - you can download it and use it as the starting point for creating your own (you will of course need to replace my contact info with your own). It’s a little geeky to implement, so you’ll need to follow these directions precisely:

Justin, your Biznnik bling looks great. What a nice idea dressing up our blogs with pretty logos. So far all I’ve managed to do is mess up the link I had that did work. I need a IT department I guess… I can go add that to my “needs” list:-)
