Thank you for sharing Gerald! I have built the foundation of my website, I've just been struggling with building the structure, so this helps.

Robert

You are welcome, cheers!

Thanks for this great post!

You are welcome, Theresa, cheers!

Sounds like an in-depth plan that one can refer to as they build a blog. Think I'll be back a time or two. Good evergreen content here! Thanks Gerald.

Thank you Nathan for your kind words, cheers!

Thank you some really useful information here

Thanks Barry, cheers!

Thanks Gerald. I am always looking for blog explanations and instructions to writing effective blogs! I am not a blogger, but I am trying to grasp the techniques, and effective uses of blog content.

I personally want to give people the "quality" without a bunch of dry fluff just to produce some words.I like to read content that gives me something I can learn from such as you have done here, or humor, or visual content, that provides value to the reader.
Thanks for sharing!
Chas

Awesome, thank you Chas, cheers!

This is one mans style and very informative. Many of the points you made Gerald are utmost important for content but style is what I do "myway" and nobody else. I also am not versed with "educated" blogging and say it as I see it! I know that"some" people will not like it and just shake their heads! Well, that is just fine with me because they are not the people I am trying to attract! I don't know anything aboutAnatomically correct, Blogging platform, Categories, Description, Editorial calendar, or anything of this "formal stuff and don't really want to either.
I love to write by the seat of my pants and be original

Thanks for your input Mike, cheers!

Hey Gerald, I just meant that for myself and not as an "Input"!

Hey Mike, I always treasure your wisdom and advice, as I know Germans have brilliant minds, cheers!

I have my trepidations about that. I blew my mind with drinking too much in my earlier years. Quitting to drink does not seem to have improved this any but I have less headaches.

Sounds like you have been through some tough times. To your health and success! Cheers.

Thank you Gerald - this is a good reminder.

Allen

Thanks Allen, cheers!
