Have you ever taken a look at some of the blogs out there and thought “Man that seems like a lot of work”.? Here is how you can make the Blog you see before you in the space of 2 Hours!
Broken down into steps here is what I did:
- Got Bored of Blogger / Felt I needed more Style
- Bought BlueHost space
- Read up on how to Migrate to WordPress
- Changed my twitter landing page to suit
- Installed a Cool Theme
- Installed a Plugin that auto hides text in old posts
- Used the Migration feature in WordPress to move my Blogger Content
- Installed some Search Engine & Admin Plugins
- Spent a little time writing an About Page
- Started writing this post!
There is a long way to go, I look at blogs like Chris Brogan, or CopyBlogger which are repositories of incredible content… then I look at my own site and think “Man I ramble”.
How to Blog More Effectively
My Problem is usually I cant finish so I’m attempting to alleviate this by following up on my 2010 Goals.
The hope here is that if a goon like me can make a blog like this, Imagine what you could do. It is a lot easier than it looks & actually quite enjoyable. Be sure to let me know how it goes for you, and contact me. Give it a go, I mean… Why not?
