BUILDING A WORDPRESS BLOG
July 4, 2009
I am a relatively new blogger and as such, decided to read several books to aid my efforts in structuring AND understanding this wide-world of blogging. I was particularly interested in gaining additional knowledge relative to WordPress. For this reason, I purchased” Building a WordPress Blog People Want to Read”. The book was written by Mr. Scott McNulty; published by Peachpit Books; copyright 2009. The major chapters are:
- Why WordPress?
- Installing WordPress
- Managing User Accounts
- The Dashboard
- Future proofing Your Blog
- Preparing to Post
- Publishing Your Post
- Working with Pages
- Handling Links
- Coping with Comments
- Working with Themes and Widgets
- Themes: To Find or To Build?
- Using Plug-Ins
- Troubleshooting and Maintenance
The book was written in a very straight-forward manner and easy for a novice, like myself, to follow. I certainly did like the fact that each chapter could “stand alone” and serve as a future reference. Most of the way through the book, I had my computer up and running and was logged into WordPress.
I can definitely recommend this book to you if you are “in the mood” for a reference relative to blogging.

I drop a comment just about every time I like a short article on a web page or if I have something to valuable to contribute to your conversation. It’s a result of your fire communicated in the publish I browsed. And after reading this short article I used to be basically moved enough to drop a comment here

Hello Ginger–Sorry for the delay in getting back with you. The site template itself is from Word Press. I chose the text and all colors. I wanted a significant contrast between the text and background. This template provided me with that. Many thanks for taking and a look and I definitely recommend you start writing.

Hello About. I do have increasing an increasing number of “hits” but my postings are fairly narrow in scope so I don’t really feel I will ever attract the “masses”. I am certainly happy you came by for a visit.
