http://buzz.kovaicity.com — Chapter 1: Blog Introduction
1.1 – Find out what blog is best for you! There are many different types of blogs. Wordpress is an excellent blog yet it requires a little bit of knowledge when it comes to editing. Blogger which is produced by google is another great blog and requires very little knowledge to edit themes or your blog. I would recemmend whichever you feel comfortable with and even try both of them, if one does not work as well for you, drop it and stick with the one that you are comfortable with.
1.2 – A great blog has a nice but clean and easy to read design. What is a blog for? a blog is for a user to post topics that he feels led to share. What if your readers have a heard time reading the post, this is why a nice easy clean design is a must for a new blog.
1.3 – Have an idea of what the blog is about. Are you going to be doing “how-tos” for people or is your blog just something to post ideas you have? Maybe your blog is a place for you to post information about whats going on in your family so that your entire family can view and make posts.
1.4 – Find a good theme that fits you and what you are trying to accomplish. There are flash themes which require a little bit of flash knowledge and then some themes that you should be able to just “plug and play”. That means, your theme will give you the look and feel you want and thats all you have to do. I am a strong believer in creating a customized theme. I can help you with this or you can find many people to help you with this. Usually a custom theme will cost $80-$100.
