Do you have a blog business plan?

My basic plan is to set a blogging schedule and make sure I have time for it. I create "big projects" like I want to target all keywords about X, then set out a schedule to get all of them done.
Then I kind of regroup and replan based on the results I get from that. Ultimately, we want to get traffic to our site, so any plan you think of should be traffic focused at this point.

I changed my blog posts from showing the entire post on the associated page to only showing the summary. When I go directly to my page, the post shows (in full format) but when
Hm. Possibly a theme issue or plugin conflict? Have you tried switching themes to see if the problem persists?
I have not I will now...I did notice that if I go directly to http://becomingbasicallybalanced.com my DIY page displays (perfect!) when I navigate and go back to DIY projects the URL displays as http://becomingbasicallybalanced.com/our-diy-projects/ wondering if I have them linked wrong?
It looks like maybe you set http://becomingbasicallybalanced.com/our-diy-projects/ as your home page which would produce the results you have now.

Let me know if that fixes your problem.

thats the blog the DIY page-I'm wondering if I associated the post to the wrong page. I noticed the URL changes when I hit the DIY page....I'm gonna play around and see if I can fix it. Thanks for taking a look!
I think you need a Home Page...you don't have one. The link you sent is for a Blog. Correct? So when you create a Home Page, what do you want us to first see? You got this!!!
I originally had a home page.....but in the DIY niche most other blogs take the viewer directly to their blog......so that I think based on all other blogs I've seen I want the DIY page to be the home page.
Thanks for the encouragement! I'm determined to make this happen :)
Well, there are actually 2 ways. People do one or the other.
Static Pages keep the same opening Page, which a lot tend to do.
Blog Roll shows your latest Post.
