The machine has class, glass and a big engine. Before you think about...

When you first start to build your blog you probably have a great dream of what you are wanting to communicate. It reminds me of Kevin Costner in the movie ‘Field of Dreams’. Starting off with a corn field he works the principle ‘Build it and they will come’. Thanks to the beautiful development of the WordPress application most of us can get a great blog up and running, ready to build our dream. Normally your WordPress installation will fall into the category of either a blog account at wordpress.com or through a self-hosted version of WordPress which could be...
