I'm new to the blogging world...can't wait to get started! I'm thinking about a blog about husbands....you know, sort of a humorous guide to wife behavior to help husbands understand our ways.

I really like it. I also have a blogger blog and I just feel it is too restricting. I have a self hosted wordpress blog. I really like it.

As a full time working mommy I enjoy reading what other mommies share with me but I could only dream of having my own. Although, if I were to start one this article would be a great big help!

Too bad I didn't run into some of this advice when I was getting started. I'm actually happy with the themelessness of my blog (yes I just made that word up), but for the most part I agree on picking a theme especially if you're looking to create a successful blog. The name part, though, oh. my. I so just slapped a name up there. I seriously thought only family would read it...turns out that's not quite true. Go figure! I do wish I had put more thought into that one. Now if I ever remarry and have more kiddos, I'll have to rename the blog.

I just made the leap about a month ago, when my son turned 3, and decided to start a blog. For now it's private and really just for me. I opted to use Blogger, but now you've got me wondering if I should have chose Wordpress. Can't wait to read throughout the weekend to see what great advice you have to offer.
