Hello all

As part of my ongoing "building my personal brand" mission that I have been on since the beginning of this year I started a blog a few months back and have been delighted with the feedback that I have received so far. It is something that I enjoy doing and helps to drive traffic to my website. I am thinking of increasing the frequency of these blogs to fortnightly.

I recently come across a podcast from Darren Rowse of ProBlogger where I can learn how to blog more effectively. Last week Darren issued a challenge to his listeners to publish a blog post with embedded content (either pictures or videos). In response to his challenge I did this short blog post on how I make backing tracks. It is essentially for Band-in-a-Box beginners.

Any comments are most welcome and please feel free to share with anybody you know who may be starting out.

6 simple steps to make cool backing tracks using Band-in-a-Box

That's a really nice blog Joanne. Anyone should be able to follow along and have a few songs ready for their next braai.

"three chords and the truth" - <grin> nice touch...

In a future blog, if you decide you want to expand on helping beginners find those pesky three chords or that key signature, let me know by PM. I have some beginner tips I can share with you.


Enjoyed the blog.

This is a great guide, Joanne. Just FYI though, you linked to your Kumbaya play-along, rather than your Amazing Grace play-along! They're both lovely, though smile
