The overall theme of the blog is dedicated to educating online users, especially webmasters and bloggers, on how to run successful websites and equipping them with all the tools and best practices that will be required. So far, I have been able to cover some good ground in the areas of Search Engine Optimization, Blogging and Social Media through posts that have been well received by my readers. Over the next few months I will be widening the scope and start focusing on more key topics that appeal to a larger audience.

Here’s what’s in store for the short-term:

Daily Tips

I will be posting daily tips to the site in the form of short useful snippets, myth busting questions & answers, quotes that should help to spark some deep thought & inspiration and offer links to tools and techniques for accomplishing various tasks. These will be geared towards getting you the information quickly and directly and will cover lots of ground in a short period of time.

So ensure that you subscribe to my blog’s RSS or E-mail feed and follow me on Twitter to keep updated.

More Topics & Freebies

Since the launch of the blog in March, I have been focusing a lot of blogging, social media, WordPress tips and SEO. However, my goal is to offer a much wider range of information useful for all webmasters, bloggers and general internet users. So you will see me begin to touch topics such as general internet security & guidelines, simple web design techniques, online business development tips & tools, offer sources of useful free tools and themes and also plugins and free themes designed and developed by me.

Guest Author Benefits

I will be implementing a new guest posting structure that will allow all guest bloggers on the site to benefit more than just a couple of back-links but possibly earn some cash, gain above average exposure and become part of a team dedicated to growth and development in the blogosphere.

Your success is my success

Though many of us use WordPress  just for blogging, it offers us much more than that and can be extended and upgraded to suit and accomplish almost any goal you have online. So to help you get the picture and also gain some insight and/or inspiration, I’ve decided to share some already popular, and not so popular but beautiful, sites that are enjoying success with WordPress as the backbone of their business online.

Most of these sites use WordPress to serve their blog’s content as well as a content management system to efficiently manipulate their site’s design, structure and content.

1. TIME Magazine Blogs

2. PlayStation’s Blog

3. TechCrunch

4. ProBlogger

5. CSS Remix

6. Phone.com

Discussion

That’s it. Hope you found some inspiration to push your WordPress site / blog to the limits.

Are there any other popular sites that you’re aware of that use WordPress as their CMS? Please let us know in the comments below.

I have found that if I had the knowledge from the beginning of who really was the best and is proven among its users, I could have spared myself lots of headaches. This is where Webhostingrating.com provides an excellent service to help you compare, search, learn and find the best web host possible for your online venture.

Let’s take a look at how this excellent web host rating site can get you started and why it stands out in my mind.

Easily Compare Web Host Providers

There are tons of web hosting review and rating websites online that do not offer this simple tool. Webhostingrating.com gives you the ability to compare various web host providers that you choose in parallel columns which will help you to make the best possible choice quickly and without hassle.

User Reviews

A common feature on most web hosting review sites, Webhostingrating.com provides lots of user feedback and allows anyone to easily and freely share their experiences whether good or bad, to help you make informed decisions before you buy.

Offer Hosting Tips Through Their Blog

Many of the web host review sites I’ve come across seem to be more concerned about making money from their site than providing a service that proves to be useful for their visitors and thus miss out on some unique opportunities to satisfy their readers. Webhostingrating regularly updates their blog offering tips and advice on how to choose the best web host and the services that are right for you. In fact, they have been doing this since 2002, so I expect a lot of good things from them and shows that they’re in it for the long run.

Simple & User Friendly

The site is easy to browse in comparison to the average web hosting review site and is very easy on the eyes with subtle grays, blues and white. You’ll find that most of the information provided is straight forward and easy to understand. I would only recommend that entries to their blog be placed higher on the page, possibly above the fold to capture more readers’ attention there.

Conclusion

Webhostingrating.com is definitely a site that can offer some genuine direction when searching for a good web host or if you would like to learn more about hosting in general. The site will help you to get started on doing some serious research before choosing a web host and reduce the risk of making a purchase you will regret.
