ENV2 Delivers Ease To Empower Network

By John Francis


A all new upgrade, referred to as "ENV2" has brought some significant developments to the Empower Network blogging system. You may have picked up a great deal of the build-up about it.

And whilst you may have been inundated with members aiming to advertise their links to you, there has been hardly anything mentioned regarding the real developments and details of the brand-new Empower Network platform.

Now we'll take on the more major modifications to this system.

The Empower Network blogging system has been completely modified and is quite distinct compared to what it was prior.

It is being heralded as the blogging service that your Grandma could use. Well, I don't know your Grandma but these guys have really made it easier from a blogging point of view.

The previous edition was fundamentally just a replicating install of Wordpress, using the same administrative controls. Though putting together a blog through Wordpress is definitely easier than creating it from square one employing raw coding, that was still way to challenging for the typical person to just jump in and start using. I found the older version to be fairly uncomplicated for myself but I've been developing sites for years. I've watched plenty of customers come and end up quitting merely by reason of they were not able to handle the technical aspects of the system.

The management and engineers at EN must have seen this given that the ENV2 system has turned out to be pretty easy to use and much more simple than the original version. In fact, in almost five years of blogging I haven't come across other blogging platforms that are as simple to use.

Customers logging in to blog today will see four enormous icons at the top of their Dashboard. One, a pen icon. Another, a video icon. Another, an audio icon. And the fourth being an image icon. Regardless of what you want to post, click the relevant icon. Then a simple couple fields ask you for the associated information, whether you are choosing to upload your details or post from a different place on the internet.

If there is any way to make something any easier for the average person, I sure wouldn't know what how .

And even though the text posting does still permit basic text formatting by means of a normal highlight-and-click process, they have gotten rid of the "code" version in order to more simplify it. Certain more experienced bloggers who wish to do more intricate things with their blogs might find this annoying however the vast majority of users, I think, would like the easier process.

Amongst the most notable modifications consists of the Empower Network mobile app, making it easy to blog, post video, etc., right from your smart-phone. One element that looks to be a big hit is the ability for someone to record a video on their i-phone, then upload that video to their blog and publish it in only a few clicks of your thumb. The plan is that you can build your small business from anywhere utilizing your phone and you don't even have to hunch over your computer keyboard. It needs to be heeded that this sort of thing is made possible only by also enrolling as a customer of Empower Network's video hosting service.

The video hosting service and the blog are created to operate together to make this swift and easy. With respect to more sophisticated bloggers who are currently utilizing their own video hosting solution, rather than free video sharing sites such as YouTube or Vimeo, this will not be any kind of shock. For those bloggers that were planning on just using YouTube, this could still be undertaken certainly, however they just need to embed the YT video link into their new post. Although this is still many times quicker and simpler than using a standard Wordpress blog, it doesn't have nearly the same Wow Factor as being able to record, then click a button on your phone to have a new video blog posted.

One's capacity to customize will be relatively reduced by the improvements, as the simplicity is the focus and so as to make it easier some function was consequently diminished. One would need to figure out for themselves if this has any applicability to their business.

For example, placing graphics into your blog posts now takes two clicks and there is no requirement to decide on location or measurements for any pictures. The explanation for this is that the Empower Network blogging system is going to instantly size all the images to the breadth of the content area. Hence no more wrapping words around photos. Most probably wouldn't care less concerning this as a problem and truthfully, with almost all of the viewers seeing the internet via mobile devices today, those graphics and text will get realigned for viewing anyway. It simply makes things quicker and simpler.

Another unique transformation: When customers log in to ENV2 they will now observe their social activity feed which contains the recent posts made by other EN members.

Every individual can choose when putting together a new blog post on whether or not to make that post public or to have it put in the Activity Feed for only particular membership levels for their customers. As an example, a person could decide to make one post present to all their Basic members and some other post to display just to their Master's Course customers.

Moreover Empower Network has included the capacity to do a one-click swipe of any of the articles you discover on your Activity Feed. It is easy content curation and delivers lots of possibilities for social engagement and marketing in itself.

Generally the developments for ENV2 are favorable and certainly in the direction of simplicity for the advantage of the typical person.
