You have more time to blog than you think

One of the biggest excuses I hear from people that want to start a blog, but never do is: I don't have time.  I frequently reply to this with something along the lines of "Well, actually you do - it's just not a priority for you". Trust me, I know all about the difficulties of finding the time to blog.  I work a full-time job, have 6 kids, a house to keep up, yard to mow, bills to pay, and the list goes on.  Like you, my daily schedule is very busy, or at least seems busy. I decided to Continue Reading

I'm not suggesting you Continue Reading

Backup Buddy – How to backup your WordPress blog automatically

One of the most critical blogging tasks is performing routine backups of your blog.  Maintaining frequent backups will keep you from losing all of those articles and custom theme changes that you've worked so hard to make.  From personal experience, losing a week or more worth of articles and losing 3-4 months worth of theme changes hurts.  Unfortunately, I've been there. Generally, most hosting companies provide backups of your WordPress blog, but they generally combine all of your files and Continue Reading
