How To Turn Your Newsletter Into a Web Page...
In 45 Seconds!
by: Michael Southon
Do
you place back-issues of your Newsletter on your website?
There
are two good reasons why you should:
(1)
It shows potential subscribers that you're serious
about your Newsletter
(2)
Newsletters are rich in keywords, so it's a very good
idea to turn back-issues of your Newsletter into HTML
documents and then submit them to the major Search
Engines
Here's
a little trick that will help you format your Newsletter
as an HTML document:
Copy
the text of your Newsletter into a text editor such
as NOTEPAD.
Then
copy the text from NOTEPAD into Microsoft Word. You'll
notice that in your Word document, each line ends
with a Paragraph Mark.
Now
go to EDIT | REPLACE.
Place
your cursor in the first field, where it says 'Look
For'.
Now
click on 'More' and then on 'Special' and select the
first item in the list ('Paragraph Mark'). The symbol
for a paragraph mark will now appear in the first
field (a hat followed by a 'p').
Now
place your cursor in the field below, where it says
'Replace With' and type . Then click on 'Replace All'.
You'll
find that every single paragraph mark in your Word
document has been replaced with .
Now
copy the entire Word document into a new NOTEPAD document
and save it, using the file extension .html (Note:
NOTEPAD doesn't offer you the option to save as an
HTML document, but don't worry; just type .html after
the name you gave the file, and it will be saved as
an HTML document).
Close
that html document and then open it again and you'll
find that your Newsletter is perfectly formatted,
with the exact same line breaks that you had in the
email version of your Newsletter.
Using
this technique it takes me about 45 seconds to turn
a back-issue of my Newsletter into an HTML document!
