Introducing Custom Tabs for Blidget Pros

The Blidget Pro keeps getting better!

Last week we introduced two new features for Blidget Pros:
1. Geographic & in-widget click tracking
2. Add/remove the Get Widget button

Today, we are excited to announce our most exciting new feature yet:

Custom Blidget Pro Tabs

The custom tab enables you to add content to your widget that is not feed-based - meaning, you can add custom, formatted text, links and pictures directly inside your widget! With the custom tab, you are able to:

- Add text and images
- Format that content: font size, color, alignment, etc
- Create hyperlinks to promote your content and sites
- Change the content on an ongoing basis... and have it automatically refresh across the web

Looking for ideas on how to use the new custom tab? Here are some ideas:

- Bloggers: In addition to your blog and Twitter tabs, add a custom tab that describes your blog and links to it
- Small Businesses: Add a custom tab that describes your business and prominently provides contact information (email, phone, URL, etc)
- Brands: Use the custom tab to further your brand awareness. Add a logo and links to more information.
- Realtors: Create a custom tab that describes your services and encourages viewers to schedule appointments



If you already have a Blidget Pro, simply login to edit it and press the "Add a Tab" button. There is a new "Custom Tab" option within that menu.
