Blogging Basics

Just to promote myself for once ( w00t ), I'm starting a series on blogging basics on my main blog (the writing site, in my profile). Starting right from scratch with 'What is a blog?' today, I figured it'd be nice to have a series of posts (among the other stuff) to help people out.

Any of you who've read my Beginner's Guide to Making Money Online (that ugly yellow banner in my profile - guess who sucks at graphics work?) will know the kind of general info I try to help out with. It'd be good to hear comments or requests for subjects in the Blogging Basics series - though I have a pretty complete list of what I'll include, I think!

Unless I've forgotten something. Again... lol

I´ll check as soon as I can your site. I have wanted to make a blog for a long time but don´t know how. I hope that, with your help, I will be able to do it finally.
Thanks

Second post - Choosing a subject - just went up a couple of days ago. It's still an occasional series, I'm afraid, not a daily thing!

Hey Spike,

I saw your new post. It is helpful to have your site just a click away from my blog. LOL! As you may have noticed, my site is still pretty young and confused. Talking about a lot of stuff. Well, it is difficult for me not to inject my favorite stuff in it. So, maybe I will improve on it soon!

I'd still take you on that offer. Not just now. he he he!

Good day!

Cheers!

Ummm, no it doesn't. I just looked. The "Comments (104)" on the front page doesn't go anywhere (which implies don't exist), the weblinks directory is empty and their (your?) SEO guide consists of three lines and basically says "Join up".

Pages need better organisation - it's unclear what the site does, how it does it and what the advantages or terms are. You need to run the pages through a spelling and grammar checker as well, by the way. The idea's potentially nice - depending on what the actual details are - but it needs some serious smoothing of the edges before you start advertising it all over the place!
