Today’s quick tech tip….

Just use a different font than everyone else is using.

I don’t really recommend this for any type of business-related post, but you can definitely draw more attention to your personal posts by using an entirely different font. Here’s how:

1 – Write out the text of your post in NotePad or your favorite text editor, then copy it to the Clipboard.

2 – Visit this page and paste the text from your Clipboard into the text box.

3 – Scroll down the page and find the font you want to use, then click the Decorate button on that line.

4 – Click the Copy Text button to copy the text in the new font to the Clipboard.

5 – Paste the contents of the Clipboard into a Facebook post, an Instagram post, a Twitter tweet or most anywhere else that you can post something.

That’s all there is to it.

I recommend using these special fonts sparingly to keep from irritating your friends and followers, but it’s a great way to draw attention to an occasional post that you really want people to see.
