2. Find a good WordPress theme but don’t stress too much you can easily change it later).
3. Blog at least 3  times a week to build relationships.

6. Never use black background with white text. Some will disagree but I can’t stand it.
7. Join Twitter to find like-mined friends. They will eventually read your blog. Before joining Twitter read this.
