Your tips were super helpful. I’m thinking of starting a food blog and you’ve certainly answered a lot of questions for me. Keep those posts about blogging coming!

Thank you. It’s always nice to read a compliment shortly after waking up. Like doing something impossible before breakfast!

Thanks for elaborating.
I’ll definitely look into blogwriting software.

Offline blogwriting software such as Microsoft Live Writer lets you compose posts even if you are not online. Because it is closer to Word, which I use every day, I also find it a more familiar, natural environment for writing. And it is easier to manage pictures in a post using it. However, WordPress’s built-in editor is very good too.

Thanks for this post. I have a question about #8: You suggest using dedicated software for writing the posts. What is the advantage of such software? I’ve only just started playing around with wordpress and so far, the built-in editor seems to offer everything I need.

Cheers,
Shane
