I know most of you must be saying, what the heck is “Yahoo Buzz!” :-).
Yahoo Buzz has officially opened for all the publishers out there. Yahoo Buzz is nothing but Yahoo’s clone of digg where people vote on articles. And the most voted few articles would be pushed to the Yahoo homepage, the most visited page across the internet. I am happy to bring this information to you, not because I brought it much ahead of any other blog around me - but happy because I could bring you something fruitful.
Every blogger must be glad now, that they have a chance to be on Yahoo’s homepage for some time and get loads and loads of traffic that might melt your web hosting servers.
But how to add those Yahoo Buzz buttons to your blog posts?
Specially, when you have some 100s of nice articles in your blog that you would like to test with this service. Travis Johnson has brought you Yahoo Buzz wordpress plugin within a day of Yahoo buzz opening for all the publishers. I could not see a blog post on his blog about this wordpress plugin, but you can download the plugin here 
- don’t ask me how I got it - Travis emailed me 
This plugin will help you to bring those Yahoo Buzz buttons at the bottom of your post and your readers can then buzz your articles.
As there is no post on this plugin by Travis, let me explain the steps to install this plugin
- Download the Yahoo Buzz wordpress plugin.
- Upload the zip to plugins directory
- Activate the plugin from your wordpress blog’s admin section
- Now go to Dashboard -> Options -> Buzz on Yahoo!
- Select the look and feel of button you would like. Here the button details are given in text without graphics, so this Yahoo buttons page would be of your help
- That’s it, you would see the Yahoo buzz button appearing at bottom of each of your posts
Enjoy Yahoo Buzzing and buzz this article too with the help of button below :-)!
