PimpThisBlog.com is a place where you promote, publicize and socialize your content.

Don’t be fooled, this is not yet another social bookmarking website, although it may look and feel that way to you. It's a simple to use and effective way to get your content noticed and FAST. All you have to do is let PimpThisBlog.com know that you have content that you wish to publicize and it’ll "pimp it" for you. PimpThisBlog.com will share your content, by syndicating it to various RSS readers, it will tweet your posts on Twitter (make sure you follow @PimpThisBlog to see how that works), it will tell Google that there’s new content to crawl, post the status on FriendFeed, and on and on… In no time at all your web traffic will grow faster than ever before.

In this post I wanted to share with others a simple way to display the PimpThisBlog Counter Badge on the DotNetNuke Blog module and who wish to promote their content though this channel. Here is a step by step:

1. Locate the “ViewEntry.ascx” file located in the “/DesktopModules/Blog/” folder.
2. Go to (approximately) line 38 and add the following code:

<p>
<a rev="vote-for" href="#" id="pimpLink">
<img alt="pimp it" src="/images/1x1.gif" style="border:0px" id="pimpBadge" />
</a> 
<script> 
var url = parent.window.location.href;
document.getElementById("pimpLink").href = 'http://pimpthisblog.com/submit?url=' + url;
document.getElementById("pimpBadge").src = 'http://pimpthisblog.com/image.axd?url=' + url;
<script>
<p>

3. Save, and upload to your server.
4. Yup, you're done - start pimping!

Note: You can use the very same code on other blog or content platforms although this was specifically designed to work around the limitation of not have the data variables available to the page.
