Announcing GoFISHn Widgets -- What are they? Where do I get mine?

You make the effort to post updates -- photos, fishing reports, video -- and GoFISHn makes sure those updates get seen all across GoFISHn, on Facebook and Twitter, and in search engines like Google.

Now GoFISHn also makes it possible to show your GoFISHn updates on blogs and websites anywhere on the Web thanks to GoFISHn Widgets.

What are GoFISHn Widgets? Think of a widget as a small, self-updating billboard that displays  content and links from your GoFISHn profile on another website or blog.  Below are the widgets now available to every registered member on GoFISHn. The first contains links to the latest updates you've generated in your profile. The second contains links to your latest photos. The third is a widget "badge" that carries a simple link to your profile.

How do GoFISHn Widgets work?

You don't really need to know the technical stuff, but here's the idea: They are snippets of HTML code that get automatically updated from your profile on GoFISHn.

How do I get my GoFISHn Widgets? 

Log in to your profile on GoFISHn. On your profile main page, click on the yellow "edit profile" button. 

On the left side of the next page click on the  link "Gofishn Widgets."

On the next page, you'll see your two widgets and the badge, instructions on how to deploy them on blogs and websites,  and the snippets of code you need. For most blogs and websites, it's takes about five minutes for a mildly techno-capable person to put the widget in place. If that's a problem, drop us a line at info@gofishn.com and we'll help you out.

Where can I put my GoFISHn Widget?

You can put your GoFISHn Widgets on virtually any website or blog where you have permission to do so. If you have a blog or Website,  please add your GoFISHn Widget. You can also ask friends to add your GoFISHn widget to their blogs and Websites too. The more exposure your GoFISHn Widget gets, the more folks will know about your fishing adventures and your business -- if you are a GoFISHn pro/business member.
