Article of the Day :: Yahoo’s Creative Commons Search :: SearchEngineWorkshops.com

I was about to write a short article on how to use Yahoo’s Creative Commons search to your advantage, only to find out that someone already has. From the SearchEngineWorkshops.com article:

“How Can Article Writers Take Advantage of Yahoo!’s Creative Commons Search

Follow these easy steps:

1. Go to Creative Commons: http://creativecommons.org/
2. Click on the Publish graphic at the top of the page on the right.
3. Answer the questions: Allow commercial uses of your work? Allow modifications of your work? Jurisdiction of your license? Format of your work (such as text)?
4. You can also click to add more information about your work. If you’re only going to create a license for one article, you can get very specific about your article.
5. Click on Select a License. You’ll see how the license will look on your page. You can then copy and paste the text to your Web site.

You can even add a Creative Commons License to your blog!

Read the rest of the article Leverage the power of article marketing with Yahoo’s Creative Commons Search at SearchEngineWorkshops.com – and if you’re using the Google Blog connection, be sure to use the faster inclusion steps to get visiblity quickly. Since the Yahoo Creative Commons Search includes the works registered at Creative Commons, all you’d have to do is follow the steps above.

And if you’re using Feedburner, don’t forget that they have the option to use the emblem in your feed.
