Hello world. Happy Blogtipping Day! And goodbye Arizona.
My family moves today to Colorado. If you're in the Denver area, let's do lunch sometime. If you're in Phoenix, sorry - you had your chance. :P
Enjoy these blogtipping victims while I drive 900 miles. (What is blogtipping?)
Blogtippee #1: Logo Design Blog by LogoDesignWorks 1: The content begins quite high on the page, well above the fold. 2: The posts are visually appealing, with the post content split up into nibble-sized chunks with bolded subheadings. 3: Muchos internal links to keep the visitor interested in your blog. Blogging Tip: Who's Raj? Tell us, please! Blogtippee #2: Better for Business by Terra Andersen 1: You're 23 years young and already making waves in the biz blogosphere. 2: I like that "recently posted" box at the top of every page - sucks me right in! 3: Something about the bubbly boxes everything comes in also pleases my eye. Blogging Tip: Add an advertising info page and make a link to it in the form of a tab at the top of the page. Oh, and make that top "advertise here" banner link there, too. Blogtippee #3: Professional Blogging News 1: Excellent images in many posts. Grabs the eye quite well. 2: Love the explanation on the About page. 3:Very simple, yet very effective design. Blogging Tip: Sure would be nice to see exactly who is writing these posts - bylines, photo near the top of the sidebar or on the About page, etc. What do you like about these blogs? What blogging tips would you give their bloggers?
Thanks for the tips Easton! I was actually planning on doing the advertising page, I just haven't gotten around to it. *=) Great minds think alike, huh?! By the way, if I'm ever in the CO area, we'll do lunch! (I'm not too far off... I'm in CA)
