Have got up my new website up and running on gardening tips. Creating the website is the easy bit, now comes the hard work of creating and distributing articles, link partners etc etc.

The new thing I am going to be trying out on this site is hosting my own blog using Wordpress. I have it installed and a post up, and will have to gradually add posts to it. It was a very easy install, the part I am having trouble with it getting it to look good, I am just running the basic template right now.

There are alot of plugins available, and I have installed the adsense one, that allows be to put Adsense Ads in my Blogs by just entering a html tag.

I am also going to be putting in some RSS feeds on a couple of the pages, so the content looks like it is changing. I think I have found a free PHP script to do this easily. I will let you know once I have installed and configured it

For now I seem to have a lot of work to do!!!

Write later

Have spent the last couple of days getting my yoga-supplies website moved over to my new template.

I am also in the process of creating a new website. This will be hosting its own blog, using Wordpress, which was a breeze to install. I am also looking into how to do my own autoresponding.

What I have found is that companies might charge you $20/ month, to host your autoresponder. Or you can buy a script that you install on your server for anything from $50. Since I am an IT geek I have managed to find the scripts that are open GPL Licenses so Free in the first place.

I am going to have to spend sometime checking how these work, not that they are hard to setup, just need to check they do exactly what I need. I let you know in once I do.

Have fun

Finally got my solar power website up to date. It is a rather tedious task, luckily I have used Server Side Includes since starting doing the sites. This can make the tasks of creating the new site much easier , and easier to manage in the long run.

I also have to start writing more articles for my websites in general, and get them out there. Not easy when your also doing a new business start up, buying a house, and trying to study, all good though.

Next major step in to redesign the Yoga site and really start adding the content to it, which is all waiting in the wings. Thought it would be better to wait till the site is updated before adding to it.

I have just recently posted a new article on my tennis website called General Tennis Psychology, it should help to take your game to the next level.

It is part of my Tennis Tips series that is available on my website. Have a look I am sure you will find a tip that could help you

For the last couple of months I have really neglected keeping my websites up to date. This has mainly been down to starting up a new company in the UK specialising around email security, compliance and mobility.

My website http://www.tennis-supply.com continued to grow, and I plan to start adding more content soon. I have allready redesigned it from the ground up, and think it is a lot better than before.

I have also noticed that with no effort on my part http://www.vacuum-cleaners-2u.com, is getting a lot of hits from searchers on MSN, so I thought since it was the smallest I would redesign it and hopefully should start bringing in more money.

I am planning to start doing the same for my solar power website and yoga website. Once I can get some free time ;-D
