Blogging Resources
I’ve been blogging for several years now and in that time I’ve learned a lot about blogging and even created a side income from my blogging endeavors. A lot of people ask me for advice and help when they are starting out so I’ve put together several resources for newbies including a guide to starting a blog and an e-book explaining in detail how to grow a blog. This page contains other resources I’ve used and found helpful over the years (and more will be added soon).
Blog Hosting
Hostmonster - I’ve used HostMonster for four years and they’ve always helped me and my sites have had little downtime.
Blogging Tools I Love
WordPress – I’m a WordPress fan and always will be. It’s the best free content management system for blogs.
Thesis Theme for WordPress – I use the premium Thesis theme for my blogs. It is an easy theme to build upon and is set up to improve your blog’s SEO.
Security & Malware Removal
Sucuri - Security issues are a major hassle, especially with WordPress. Blogs get hacked all the time. Sucuri scans your blog every couple of hours for problems and if you get hacked they will remove the malware and fix your site within an hour or two. They saved me when my blog was hacked and I now feel secure using their service. It costs a bit but it’s less than you would pay someone to dig through your site and fix it, plus you are covered for a full year.
Blogging E-books
31 Days To Build A Better Blog from Darren Rowse – This downloadable e-book is designed to help you improve your blog dramatically by giving you 31 tasks to help you increase pageviews and reader interaction in just one month. It’s great because it gives you something actionable to do every day. Darren really knows how to help people improve their blogs – he has been blogging full time for years and this e-book has helped thousands create better blogs.
