When in doubt, figure it out!

Since members started talking about using Flipboard to traffic to their sites, I too decided I would give it a try since I need more traffic.

I created 9 magazines and added one article to each. But, no traffic. Nada. Maybe it's my niche...I dunno.

Not only that, I found i was having issues adding articles to my magazines. See, I was using my mobile app. I would create a magazine, no problem and then click on the blue pencil icon at the top right, click add a story and type in my website address. It worked a couple times. But soon, I was getting 'About:Blank' and 'Try Again Later'.

OK. Then I went back to the blue pencil icon and click in the Write something for your magazines... area and click the link button at the bottom. Again I would type in my website address and again the same errors. Also, I wasn't able to get onto my website! Weird right? I would go onto the internet and I had an error to get onto my site. I contacted SiteSupport and they said there were no issues. Everything was fine after. But weird!

Today, I decided to try another method to add articles to my magazines. I went to my website, to the blog I wanted to share and clicked the share button. This method has been working like a charm. I guess no more mobile app for adding articles for me!

Sharing this will you all in case anyone else has the same problems. I will keep you posted on my traffic. Hoping the more alI add the better it will be.Good luck to all the Flipboarders ;-
