Webcast: How to Build a Presence Online Without a Traditional Website

Chris Heiler | July 30, 2010

This is the recording of the July 29th, 2010 webinar titled How to Build a Presence Online Without a Traditional Website.

We discussed three things primarily--Blogs, Facebook Pages and VisualCV.com. Of course, we also drifted into other areas as well :-)

The video is a large file and may take a few minutes to load in your browser. It is a .WMV file and probably requires Windows Media Player to view.

Below the video are a few notes and links to things that were brought up during the webinar. If you have additional questions or thoughts, feel free to leave a comment below.
