Guide To Starting Up A Blog - Part I
I’m glad that I was sitting down when I saw this guide on starting up a blog from gHacks, as although Martin knows a hell of a lot about blogging, SEO, hosting, revenue generation etc I’ve never seen him write a post about blogging. I have however managed to coax out some of his [...]

One of the drawbacks of blogs I think are that it is hard to highlight to new readers and subscribers who tend to focus on the latest and newest articles all the good old posts that have been made.
