Wow, this is a fantastic list. Very helpful, thanks! WordPress is really exploding right now, so the more info you have the better off you are. In fact, I just read an article about hot job skills for 2008 that features WordPress. It shows wordpress trends as having increased by 4 times from that of the previous year. I found this encouraging (and figured I’d share) because in this economy, it’s good to be a part of something that is actually in demand.
Looking forward to your next post.

I thought all of you WordPress fans will find this useful: good instructions on managing the php.ini configuration file. If this file is missing or is placed in a wrong directory, some of your WordPress plugins may not function correctly. Take a look. This may be worth a couple minutes of your time: http://www.krazyworks.com/web-hosting-providers-and-php-ini/

Whenever a new WordPress version comes out, I get an itch to upgrade as quickly as possible. Generally, this is not a good idea, unless you enjoy working out new software bugs and dealing with broken plugins. Still, sooner or later you still have to upgrade and there is always a chance that something will go terribly wrong. You always need to make a backup. Here is the script that will created a compressed tarball of your entire WordPress installation directory: http://www.krazyworks.com/wordpress-backup-script/

I am impressed by the effort that went into your writing and the way you managed to keep the flow from Introduction of the topic to the summary. Do you think you might cover recent developments in marketing online or what are your thoughts about that.
I look forward to reading more from you. Have a great week.

Youre not the average blog writer, man. You certainly have something powerful to add to the web. Your design is really strong you could almost escape with being a bad writer, but youre even awesome at expressing what you need to say. Continue the good work man!

I absolutely love WordPress. I’ve not found a better platform for building and managing a website. Doesn’t matter whether you’re blogging, have a store front, create a massive business site or need a basic, static website to promote your services and products – WordPress can manage it all.
September 16th, 2011 at 11:08 pm
Hey there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing months of hard work due to no data backup. Do you have any methods to protect against hackers?
