Back from my break

australia.jpgNearly a month without updates doesn’t do a blog any good. It does a blogger good though. I’ve been down under in Western Australia, enjoying a well deserved break from the hectic world of online marketing, blogging and the Internet in general. At first I was quite concerned that my business would come to a grinding halt once I’d stop logging in and updating. Fortunately I have a huge following on my main blog, and plenty of people offered to keep things going.

The great thing about all the guest posters is that I now have a bigger overview of who is reading my blog, what kind of bloggers they are and what they’re interested in. There was one guest poster in particular, whose writing style I really liked and I’ve contacted him to see if he wants to come onboard as a more permanent poster. He’s only 14, but his post revealed a lot of insight and dedication to do things right. It just shows that there’s really no such thing as an age limit when it comes to online marketing.

Anyone can get a computer, sign up for a broadband connection, setup a blog with the wordpress software and write away. Its the simplicity which makes it possible for anyone to be heard on the net.

Why I’m sticking with the default theme

thumb-wordpresslogocristal.jpgThere’s actually a reason for sticking to the default theme - I want people visiting for the content, not how it’s all packaged. Sure, there’s tons of great looking theme’s out there and I could probably get a nice custom theme made by professional blog design companies, but I’d rather stick with simplicity. The major advantage is probably the reduced loading times. No big fancy headers and stuff to load, so we’re not wasting your time here. I’m also keeping the amount of plugins to a minimum, just utilizing the ones I really love. Will do a post about the most useful plugins later this week.

I actually think that this is probably the most original wordpress theme to use these days as everyone else is using anything but.
