Today, I am going to show you some keyboard shortcuts that can make your day a little easier. You may know about these but I find that many people do not.
To get started, we will learn 3 shortcuts that you will use a lot. The first one is the highlight everything shortcut. These will be for PC users and no offense to Mac users. Always make sure your cursor is in the window where you want to use the shortcuts.
Ok, so I want to highlight everything that I have typed so far. What you do is press the ctrl key and hold it down and then press the A key. You should see everything that you have typed highlighted.
Now if I want to copy all of that information I can do so by pressing the ctrl key (hold it down) and then press the C key. That will copy/store that information for you.
In my example here I am typing this PR in a text editor. What I can do now is add one more shortcut to the mix. First, I will do a ctrl-A to highlight everything. Then I will do a ctrl-C to copy all of that which I have highlighted.
Next I am going to go the IBO website and create a new Press Release. I will place my cursor inside the editor at IBO. Then I will press, you guessed it, the ctrl key (hold it down) and then press the V key. This will then paste the information that I copied to the IBO Editor. See you there. lol
Ok, I am here and have pasted this PR into the editor with the shortcut ctrl-V. Pretty cool!
There is one more shortcut for today that is handy. Suppose you are typing a sentence and you highlight it and then make a mistake and delete it.
If you use this shortcut, ctrl-Z, you will be able to get the sentence back. You must do the ctrl-Z immediately after deleting something for it to work.
If you liked this short tutorial, let me know and I will do some more.
If you would be so kind and take a look at this Press Release at IBO Social, No, I am not retired., that would be cool. It has some information that will help you get leads and sales from any website.
Thank you for making it a sharing day in the IBO neighborhood.
