Writ­ing About What You Love!

Is my writ­ing any good?

Word Press is an open source pub­lish­ing appli­ca­tion which can also be used for basic con­tent man­age­ment. It has many fea­tures includ­ing a user-friendly work­flow, rich plug-in archi­tec­ture, and an advanced tem­plate sys­tem.  Word press is the most pop­u­lar blog soft­ware in use today.

If you like to write, and need to remind your­self of what works the best for your blog, then you need to read on…

First a lit­tle history…

Word Press was first released in May 2003 by Matt Mul­len­weg , a mod­ern day soft­ware and pro­gram inno­va­tor.  As of Sep­tem­ber 2009, it is being used by 202 mil­lion web­sites world­wide. More info about word press can be found on Wikipedia. The plat­form in which Word Press is built on, lends itself to the free­dom of express­ing your-self, a lib­erty that is still enjoyed in this coun­try. As a result of this Word Press phe­nom­ena, the advent of learn­ing good writ­ing skills has now become the main ingre­di­ent and has enabled peo­ple of all lev­els to write about the things they love to write about. Those things that you now write about can be seen world­wide, cre­at­ing an instant audi­ence for inter­est­ing con­tent and a sure way to con­vey mes­sages, opin­ions, state­ments, thoughts, busi­ness mar­ket­ing and many other applications.

Bravo to all those who love to write.

Word Press, how­ever, does require a learn­ing curve, many peo­ple have taken the task of learn­ing this plat­form on their own, some with suc­cess and for oth­ers Word Press is still out of their reach in so much that its some­what dif­fi­cult to exe­cute with­out a lit­tle help. Since this plat­form has become so pop­u­lar there has been an increase in tuto­r­ial sites such as the Word Press class­room in an effort to bridge the gap of under­stand­ing and imple­men­ta­tion so that those who have dif­fi­culty can now take an online course on just how to set up and run a Word Press site.

Since its incep­tion, there are now a cou­ple of dif­fer­ent plat­form ver­sions, dot-com and dot-org. The first ver­sion dot com is a more con­trolled envi­ron­ment. It runs a pro­pri­etary code. It is finan­cially sup­ported via paid upgrades, “VIP” ser­vices and lim­ited Google Ad sense adver­tis­ing. It offers staff sup­port and is pop­u­lated by many inter­est­ing peo­ple who offer real value and use­ful infor­ma­tion. It also has a strict use pol­icy as to what you are allowed to do within their plat­form environment.

They really don’t like you to pro­mote business’s, affil­i­ate links, bla­tant adver­tis­ing, unless it offers value added con­tent. The dot com ver­sion prefers top­ics and sub­jects that are of an edu­ca­tional nature and value in a vari­ety of topics.

This par­tic­u­lar blog, Inter­net mar­ket­ing for today is an open source plat­form, dot org. You’ll find that the major­ity of mar­ket­ing blogsites out there are of an open source ori­gin. You’re basi­cally on your own and free to con­trol its con­tent and design.  You have to pro­vide your own host­ing and main­tain it peri­od­i­cally. Even though open source has its very own open forum for help. You still need to fig­ure things out for your­self which, all in all, is not such a bad idea, since you now have to learn and deal with your own Word Press cre­ation. It’s basi­cally up to you to opti­mize your site and to pro­mote your site to mar­ket your busi­ness.  For those who a need a lit­tle help or if you’re just start­ing , there are many sites that can teach the uses and the basic set up for Word Press,  some are free and oth­ers require a cost. Only you can decide which is best for you. The Word Press class­room is just one of many of these sites.

The good thing is, many free resources are of good qual­ity and do offer great value. If you need help with your Word press site and want to know how to go about mak­ing it look nice all you need to do is just tap into the many resources that are avail­able on the NET.

There are many video tuto­ri­als on you tube that teach how to set up a Word Press site, how to get traf­fic, and how to make money ! How to be inspired, how to get your cre­ative juices in motion.

Many of these train­ing videos are easy to fol­low; I set up my blog in less than an hour. The cool thing about the whole process is that once it’s installed, you can occa­sion­ally write about the things you love and the things you want to write about. It’s not really hard because you should be writ­ing about things you enjoy and that should not be a dif­fi­cult task espe­cially if your heart is in it.

Cre­ativ­ity is the name of the game and good con­tent should be the same, in clos­ing;  a good idea is always appre­ci­ated, a solu­tion to a task is invalu­able, and answer to a prob­lem can make someone’s day, offer­ing daily advice can guide oth­ers in the right direction.

Here are some good con­tent sites which I found are very helpful…perhaps they may be for you as well…very good reading
