Blogging 101 | It’s a Post not a Blog

Do you know the answer to this question. What is the difference between using the term “Blog” and the using the term “Post”?

If you are an “Author” of a “Blog” than you are a “Blogger”. As an “Author” you “Publish” content one “Post” at a time to your “Blog”.

When you announce that you have written new content you should say something like this:

  • “I have a new Post out”
  • “Just Published a New Post“
  • “Check out my Latest Post“
  • “My latest Blog Entry is a Masterpiece, Go Now”
  • “Just finished the worst Blog Post ever, I should delete it.”

Never do the following:homer.png

  • “New Blog up, Go Now”
  • “Just finished a new Blog check it out.”
  • “My latest Blog is a master piece, You’ll love it.”
  • “Just wrote the best Blog ever in my entire life, better than you ever.”
  • “I Blogged a Blog and Blogged it to my Blog, You should Blog it!” Doe!!!

What am I getting at?

Don’t say stupid things like “I just finished a new Blog“, unless you actually just started a new Blog at Blogspot.com or WordPress.com or TypePad.com…. Do you see my point! The word Blog is talking about a specific Blog associated with a unique URL.

  • Blog, Blogger, Blogging, Blogged
  • Post, Posting, Posted

Google Analytics, Good or Bad

I went and did it, I kinda had too, it’s sorta part of the business.

Up till now i’ve kinda stayed away from Google Analytics. I really dont have a good answer as to why, i guess I’ve just been so bussy lately that I looked right past it. Not to mention Brody has been taking care of those kinds of things.

Stats are an interesting beast to look at. I like graphs and numbers and all [...] Read More

Theme Development

Over the last 3 months I’ve probably spent about half my waking hours sitting here in front of my computer typing up Blog Themes. Im not sure how many themes ive completed or how many ive had to scrap. At this point i have one serious theme in the mix. It doesnt have a name but by the time i get around to publishing it, it will be awesome.

Here’s  little recommendation, if you’re an upcoming web [...] Read More

Brain Dung

So I’ll have to admit Ive been slaking alot this week in the posting department and the reading thing. I blame WPMU and this amazing thing called Plugins.

Here is a glimps inside my head
function brain_smack($args) {
extract($args);

$mybrain = get_tired(‘my_eyes_areburning’);

echo ‘your breath stinks’ . $mybrain;
}

On a better note Ive begun to develop my own Plugins and Widgets, what a wonderful thing. And if you didnt know WordPress offers a multiuser version. It’s really cool if you’re [...] Read More

Page Ranking

Brody and i were talking about PageRank the other day and i started to thinking about what i was on the scale. The most interesting part is that the ranking works much like the Richter scale for earthquakes. Check it out at PRChecker.

Here’s what I found:

Reader Circle: Online directory of Social gathering & Book stores ← this is a non-profit org. that my brother started a few years ago. (really cool)

Carlos: supper blogger
