The Power of Hashtags. The Power of Women.

Getting your voice heard and spreading the right messages have become more and more impactful with the use of hashtags. This week’s newsletter is dedicated to all the women who raise their voice and/or take action in their lives. March is International Women’s Month. This month we celebrate our mothers, sisters, daughters, etc…  We honor those past and present who are taking a stand for a basic human right – equality. With the rise of Social Media, the reach is phenomenal. As a business, you can show support by showcasing female team members or customers.

Find The Elements of a Site You Want to Duplicate  – Web Developer

Wouldn’t you love access to the back end of a website so you could see what colors and other elements they used to create the page? With the Web Developer plugin (available on Google Chrome), you can.

Some of the functionality of Web Developer is a little advanced for the standard marketing professional (it’s made for developers), there are a few handy parts of the plugin that you can use. There’s a ruler that helps you measure the dimensions of an image or other element to see its exact size in pixels. The color picker lets you lick on section of a website to see what color it is.

The browser resizer lets you take a glimpse of how a page will work on mobile or other devices.
