My blog serves many functions, but its main goal is marketing. Going through the whole process of moving my blog from blogger to a self-hosted WordPress format has been a long learning experience. To make my blog effective, I want to post regularly. I’m always on the look out for new ideas. That’s what made this post from PureBlogging so informative. If you haven’t stumbled upon this blog, you should. There is so much here.In this post, he cites six blogs that everyone should bookmark. (His should be added to the list.). The list takes you through a variety of avenues in the blogging world, good if you’re serious about staying on top of the blogging world. BloggingTips deals with day-to-day issues like this post about dealing with not-trolls. One’s goal ultimately with a blog is to create your own interactive community, but sometimes people don’t play nice. The advice of others can be invaluable.

There’s plenty of advice and help out there. These blogs are great resources. Happy blogging!

The New Face Of WordPress

Faithful readers will have noticed a change in my blog, namely that I am on my own domain using WordPress rather than Blogger. I made the change because I wanted more flexibility and control over my blog. WordPress delivers those options.

Now speaking of WordPress, a big change is in the wings with the release of v2.5. The look is changing as well as the navigation. The preview I saw tells me these changes are welcome. I thought so, anyway.

This was a good move for me. I adore this theme. It’s just the mood I wanted. Having WordPress made it possible for me, and for that, I am grateful.
