One pain in the butt reason why you should make your own videos

OUCH!

So, a few months ago a friendly WA person offered for me/us to use their WA promotional vimeo videos on our websites ( for free.)

They were cute and fun and informative and I was weak for a short cut. So I sprinkled the videos in appropriate places around my bootcamp website.

Well, yesterday I was updating an old post and found this image where the vimeo used to be. I've since been reviewing all entries and removing this ugly black image. Darn.

If you have used the same cartoon style videos, you might want to go check on them. I guess the creator decided to can his videos and of course my links were broken too.

This is one pain in the butt reason why I should always do my own videos.

The good news is that this exercise also uncovered mistakes I have made with other important affiliate links. By the way, my embedded Youtube videos are unaffected.

Go far, go carefully, go smart, go well from Janelle.
