Adobe Premiere Pro tutorial writers: links from Adobe
One of the advantages of posting Adobe Premiere Pro Help content on the web is that it allows links from Help to other web resources. That means we could link from a topic in Premiere Pro Help to a related tutorial you created. Premiere Pro users get quicker access to helpful training, and your site gets some additional traffic, driven from adobe.com. Sound interesting?
As the writer of Premiere Pro Help, I reserve the right to decide whether or not to link to a tutorial. However, my inclination is to make links to any Premiere Pro training materials that are accurate, well-presented, and helpful to users of the product. We can link to either written or video tutorials. Currently, we can link only from English-language Help to English language tutorials. However, we have a program in development wherein international Help moderators will be able to point to tutorials in the other languages in which Premiere Pro is released. This won't be ready for a while yet, but it is coming.
The only other requirement is that the tutorials must be located on pages requiring no password or payment to access. Some tutorial producers have made good use of this requirement. They placed a few tutorials from their caches onto free pages to which Adobe can link, but they also placed links from those free pages to materials that require users to subscribe or pay for access. There is nothing wrong with that from our perspective.
If you have Adobe Premiere Pro tutorials scattered around your site, perhaps among training materials for other products, there are a couple of ways we could proceed. Either we could place links in Help to each Premiere Pro tutorial individually, or you could create a kind of landing page with links to your various Premiere Pro materials. We would link from Help to the landing page.
If you have tutorials already on the web that will remain pertinent for Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, or if you plan to create tutorials specifically for CS4, I'd love to hear about them. It's easy to get started: just send me an email at muratore@adobe.com.
