My First Article for PC World: How to Make a Facebook Page for Your Small Business
While on vacation this summer, I was contacted by PC World and asked to write a how to article about making custom Facebook pages. The terms were really good and I had enough time to work on it so I said yes.
The article appeared this week and can be viewed here.
I write short blog posts for this site all the time but I haven’t written a long article since I was in graduate school. Even though I knew what I wanted to write, I had a hard time sitting down and doing it. I also found while I was working on it that I was very easily distracted. I had to keep reminding myself that this was actually for pay and not for a grade in school.
I am, however, pleased with how it came out and that I branched out a little and did something new. I may be doing more but that isn’t certain yet.
I hope you find the article useful and it helps in making custom Facebook pages.

Great article Kim – congrats on the accomplishment. Writing is hard – it’s one of the reasons I don’t offer just blogging packages anymore, but rather a mix of blogging + social media.

Hi Vered – Thanks! Yeah, I don’t think I could be a full-time writer but I was pleased about this opportunity.

Hi Sam – Thank you. If I wrote articles here as long as the one on PC World I wouldn’t be able to post very often – they are very time consuming. I also got paid for that ;-)
