Wordpress Adsense Optimized Themes

Saturday, February 24th, 2007

There is a nice post over at Dosh Dosh highlighting some of advantages of using an Adsense optimized theme. The post also has a list of 16 of these optimized themes.

I have thought about using one of these themes for RevenueQuest. My only hesitation is that many of these themes are all over the internet now. Using a common theme makes your blog look unoriginal.

If you decide to go with one of these themes, try to edit it a little bit. You may want to change the graphic in the header or changing the color theme.

Learn some basic HTML

Friday, January 5th, 2007

With today’s blogging platforms like Blogger.com’s Blogspot, Wordpress, and others, it is now easier than ever to start a blog with very little knowledge of basic webdesign and HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language). Any successful blogger, however, will tell you that it is absolutely necessary to have at least some knowledge in HTML.

With that said, here is a great site that will teach you the basics of HTML, HTML 4 Beginners. You should be able to go through every page there fairly quickly. After reading through the site, you should be able to pick apart most sites written exclussively in HTML and can learn from their designs.
