I am a big fan of WordPress. Ever since I used it in 2009, I am totally in love with it. WordPress has made web design and blogging so much more fun (in a challenging manner).

For you Blogger users, you might want to know what is the big hype over WordPress. WordPress is both a blogging tool and a dynamic web content management system whereas Blogger is simply a blog-publishing tool (Blogger is never intended to be a full-featured CMS). WordPress makes use of PHP and MySQL and currently is the most popular CMS in use on the internet.

So what's so great about WordPress?

Aside from being a free, open-source software, there are a lot of other reasons why WordPress is such a popular choice:

  1. WordPress is developed by its community, meaning that any bugs and errors are constantly being fixed. Also, since it relies on peer support, authors who come across errors or problems with their copy can seek assistance kn the WordPress support forum.
  2. It is search-engine friendly so you won't have to worry overmuch over Search Engine Optimisation (SEO).
  3. Did I mention that WordPress is free? You don't need to spend a dollar to have your WordPress site set up.
  4. It has an automatic updater, so as to make the upgrading your WordPress copy to the latest version pain-free.
  5. WordPress has a large and rich plugin architecture which allows designers and developers to do so much more to their copies of Wordpress.

There are just some of the awesome features that can be associated with Wordpress. To find out more about this amazing CMS, I suggest ou to give it a try.

Wow, i am also a big fan of WordPress. Great information you have shared on this blog with us, Keep sharing please!

Hi thanks for the info and great blog :) i was wondering can you also use wordpress with blogger or?

@Sann, no you can't use Wordpress with Blogger.they are both blog publishing tools so you can't incorporate one into another. It is like saying can I use a Honda and a Ford together? To put it simply, Wordpress is like Blogger, but with more power. :)

Hire me to design your blog!

I offer designing and re-designing of Classic Blogger templates. Examples of my design can be found on my portfolio website.

The basic rate for a design starts from $25 USD. The rate is based on the complexity of the design. The more elaborate the design is, the higher the price is.

How to place your order

Send me an email via the contact form and state clearly how you want your design to be. This includes colour scheme, layout (with or without sidebar, number of columns, etc), any extra features, etc.

Your email should be in this format:
Name:

Preferred payment method: Paypal/Moneybookers/Payza/Bank transfer to Baiduri bank

I shall respond to your email within 3 (three) days. Your order will be placed into a Waiting Queue as orders are processed on a first come, first serve basis.

Payment methods

Payment has to be made to either by PayPal, or Moneybookers.

However, if you choose to pay via (international) bank transfer, be aware that you may be charged for the transfer service.

Other important information

Throughout the designing process, I may need to refer back to you for questions/opinions so do check your email frequently. This is to ensure the design can be done as soon as possible.

Depending on the design, your template make take up to over 1 (one) week to finish. You will be informed once the template is done.

I will send you an email requesting for the payment after the template is done. Once the payment is received, I will email you the complete template along with the necessary files.

All of my designs/templates will come with a credit section. This section must be left intact and you may not remove nor alter them. Resources that come with the designs/templates may not be redistributed or reproduced.

The designer

Kitty

Kitty. 29. Blogger, web design hobbyist, compulsive shopper and bibliophile based in Brunei. Enjoys creating and designing websites, dabbling with HTML, CSS and PHP.

I've been blogging since 2005 (or earlier) though my experience with the internet started back in 2000. My main interest is in web design and development. Other times you can see me wrapped around a book or glued to Astronomy and web design magazines.

The website

This website was created in January 2011 and the domain was purchased by me in late December 2010. Initially the website was intended to house tutorials for Classic Blogger/Blogspot only however over the time it has developed into what you see today.

Several of the tutorials and articles can also be found on Nekonette.com, which is the my main website where I mostly blog about my personal life. Also some of the tutorials here have been moved to that website.
