About SezMe
-
  What is SezMe?
-
SezMe is your way to help you get your opinion out there in regards to your microsites!
Whenever you create a microsite, you will see at the bottom of your microsite's url list a SezMe section. Here is where you, as the author of the microsite, can put your opinions on whatever your microsite is about. Whether it's political or just your creative flavor about a topic, let it be heard!
Those who view your microsite will be able to read your SezMe section and respond to your vibes. Furthermore, the SezMe section of your microsite is a great way to reach out and find those that have like minded opinions. Or perhaps you need to get a second opinion on the subject of your microsite. SezMe is where that can be done!
For now the SezMe section only allows you to post your opinion about your microsite topic, but as refered to above, we are working hard to get up a response comment section so that other's can respond to your SezMe.
Either way, don't be shy, go to your microsites now and make them truly yours by adding your SezMe opinion!
  Adding Your SezMe to Your Microsite
-
- Be sure that you are logged into your Yoogli account
- Navigate to the My Microsite page
- Click on one of your microsites that you want to add the SezMe too
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and there you will see a box to type out your SezMe about the microsite
- Once your SezMe has been written, click the Update SezMe button
- The page will refresh and you will be able to see that your content has been saved to your SezMe input box
Feel free to update or change your SezMe as much as you want. You are the author of your microsite after all, so don't let things get stagnant! Once you have updated your SezMe for the first time, other Yoogli users will be able to see your SezMe immediately while viewing your microsite. Have fun with your SezMe, put your personality into it! Just be sure to keep things clean and appropriate as we will be monotoring language.
Here at Yoogli we hope you will enjoy this new feature! And if you have any suggestions on how we might better improve our site to meet your needs, then just drop us a comment by using the feedback tab in the bottom right hand corner of your screen.
