Creative Blogging: Your First Steps to a Successful Blog Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was so thrilled to see this book by Heather Wright-Porto that I snatched it right away in the Kindle format. This book is loaded with lots of options and ideas to consider when first venturing out to create your own blog. Although I've been blogging for several years, there are lots of great tidbits that I'm picking up. Another item that I find helpful is it has Blogger, Typepad and WordPress instruction throughout the book, as well as PC and Mac instruction. THANK YOU Heather!
