How it works?

Listing your craft ideas and DIY tutorials on More Craft Ideas requires two easy steps: 1. Submit your blog, and 2. Add tags to your ideas and tutorials.

1. Submit your blog

It only takes a few seconds to fill the submission form.

If you do not have an account on More Craft Ideas yet, you will be able to create a user account at the same time.

A few precisions:

• Once you will have entered your blog address, other fields will be automatically populated: title, description, RSS feed URL etc. You can of course change the value of those fields as needed, for instance if you have a RSS feed dedicated to ideas and tutorials on your blog.
• A page dedicated to your ideas and tutorials will be created on More Craft Ideas. Its adress will be of the form morecraftideas.com/your-blog-title
• You will be able to upload an image and to choose a color that will be used to generate a banner for your blog page.

Once you have submitted the form, your blog will be visited shortly so that it can be validated.

Important note: only personal blogs that publish original ideas and tutorials with pictures will be accepted.

A link back to More Craft Ideas on your blog would be very appreciated! (for instance "My ideas and tutorials are indexed on More Craft Ideas"). Once your submission has been validated, this link will directly lead to the page dedicated to your blog. Thank you very much!

2. Add tags to your ideas and tutorials

To list your blog posts on more pages of More Craft Ideas, you can add one ore more tags (or keywords): the name of techniques and materials used, the theme etc.

To add a tag to a craft idea or tutorial, you only need to add a link to the page of the tag, somewhere in the text of the craft idea or tutorial (for instance in the list of ingredients, or at the bottom). For instance for a tutorial on how to sew a summer dress with a flower pattern, you could use the following tags: Sewing, Flowers, Summer

The corresponding URLs are https://morecraftideas.com/sewing , https://morecraftideas.com/flowers , https://morecraftideas.com/summer . You can easily obtain the tags to cut and paste with the form on the right.

Your craft idea or tutorial will then be listed on the front page of More Craft Ideas, the page dedicated to your blog, and the page of each of the tags.

Notes:

• You can use all the tags you want. If the corresponding page does not exist yet, it will be created when your craft idea or tutorial get listed.
• You can use phrases as tags: morecraftideas.com/christmas-decorations for instance.
• Number (singular or plural) does not matter, you can use morecraftideas.com/quilt or morecraftideas.com/quilts
• The address of the tag page is in small case, with a dash in the place of spaces and apostrophes. If you use another form, users will be automatically redirected to the right address.

Indexing of the ideas and tutorials

Once your blog is validated, a robot will regularly visit your blog to list the ideas and tutorials. You don't have anything else to do.

If you want to index ideas and tutorials that you have already published, please add at least one tag to each of them and send me the list of their URLs so that I can send the robots to index them.
