Creating Web Graphics 7
A New YORGOO Blaster
YORGOO Blaster is a smart and aggressive Semiomantics Script that was developed to support and boost our Blogs and to carry our Ads to Google Top 10.
As we are moving forward so fast in our monthly Ycademy Seminars and it’s increasingly difficult to keep track with the almost daily updates on WordPress… which is speedily followed by the various Plugins we are using…, we decided to refresh our memories by setting up a new YORGOO Blaster in yesterday’s Ycademy Training Call.
The goal was to choose one of our prime Blog Categories, create a sub-domain on cpanel, load the Script, and then configure the Blaster back office step-by-step and even load a post or two.
Well – it was astonishing to see that those who actively and enthusiastically participated had a complete YORGOO Blaster set up by the end of the call – all ready to get some substantial content and ideally… a little personalization.
How to Create Web Graphics for YORGOO Blaster
While everyone could select a theme from the list under “Appearance”, each person’s Blog obviously differs according to the chosen keywords – Title, Tagline and Categories.
Creating Web Graphics to give a Blog a personal touch will just make the difference!
So the question is “How to Create Web Graphics for YORGOO Blaster” ?
Here we can look at three main areas:
1. Header
2. Footer
3. Advertising
Header
While all themes differ slightly, you will find a header.php in your Themes folder that you can Edit. Just exchange the picture file (URL) by one you create in your Photoshop or Web Graphics Creator. Save it and then check the result. Change it until you are satisfied with the look.
Your header should reflect the contents or theme of the website visually or graphically or both. It’s always nice to have the title and some graphic elements that attract the visitor to what he might be looking for. Ideally, you want visitors to immediately click and be directed to your Salespage or Shop or Optin Form.
What is important is that you work with the exact measurements of the existing header as otherwise you will get errors. You want a good quality but on the other hand a header should not take too long to open, so find a compromise between the two.
Personally, I always have some sort of colour scheme to create an organic flow and that is easily recognizeable as my handwriting. I also stick to my preferred fonts… although it’s always good to experiment and play and learn from the results what works or wht doesn’t and why… until the ideal formula is found and then stick to it.
Here is my quick example on my Niche “Web Graphics” that I sat up together with everybody and just syndicated some of my own original content from HERE – all clearly targeting how to Create Web Graphics.

2. Footer
The same applies for the Footer – just find the footer.php and adapt it to your requirements.
As a Web Graphics Designer I have to brand my name and give people a chance to get in touch with me – ideally via a Contact Form, a Personal Gallery and Showcase, or a Shop – this will come in due course.
3. Advertising

The YORGOO Blaster is about carrying our Ads to Google Top 10 – whether you design your own digital ads as I did here or you go for Google AdSense, Amazon or Ebay… what counts is that you use the YORGOO Ads Plugin for the top and sidebar Advertising space.
If you design your own ads, make sure you stick to the grid, i.d. the space that’s available. Prepare it properly in your Ftontpage or preferred Editor and then simply copy and paste the Html Code into the Top Ads space provided… and even under your Posts by using the additional Disclaimer Space.
Always remember that you want to trigger a click as fast as possible from the Ads you create. If people start reading you lose that opportunity most probably… that they should do on your Author Blog or NewsCast!
