My blogging career got off slowly

I recenty decided to try my hand at blogging.

Aims:

Use blogging
  • as a way of efficiently collecting notes
  • of bouncing ideas off other people
  • as a way to refine my own thought process
  • to perhaps gain some exposure to search engines, and credible links

My initial adventure didn't work out quite the way I wanted it.

I had major problems with text formatting. I kept losing spaces justlikethis, and couldn't come up with a way of using the service providers web interface to combat the problem.

So I am giving Blogger a try, just a single blog for now, and we will see how things go.

As I am working with a single blog (for now), some of the subjects might get a little confusing.

I intend making lots of niche websites, and seeing if I can turn them into small revenue streams.

I am going to try doing this for minimum costs. Some of the sites will be hosted on free servers, and using totally free tools and services to create the content.

My articles will have affiliate links in them. Please use them as intended. Quite often I have spent 2 or 3 days researching to find the best solution, and if that research saves you a little time and money (or lots), then the small reward I might get from the recommendation is fair.
