Starting a brand new blog today - Is it still Wordpress?
-
Hi
I started a blog in 2006 on Blogspot, then everyone moved onto Tumblr and Wordpress, but in August (just) 2013, what should I be starting my brand new blog on? I dont want to have to migrate in a matter on months.

Hi Guys
Thanks for the answers. Will stick to Wordpress then!

I would say wordpress because you can self host (either on domain or sub-domain) both helping your domain authority, Blogger as far as I know is a Google hosted off your domain only option.

Hi
Def recommend wordpress.
It seems as the industry standard, and taking into consideration made by Martijn, it appears that developers are consistently developing new add-ons and improvements.
Good Luck

Hiya,
A lot of people use Wordpress but my advice is to stay with the system you know if you know the ins and outs of. if your content is good it wont matter where you are people come for the content.
Hope this helps, good luck!

Cool question, I would still stay with WordPress nowadays as it's in my opinion the best CMS to use as it's really configurable these days with thousands of developers. On the side I see Medium getting bigger but that's for now not really a blogging platform for your business.

Where to promote a blog post?
I want to promote a blog post with the littlest invested time. It's not something I need to get ranked high. Just wondering what is the most efficient method or service to broadcast it out there with at least some chance of driving some traffic (other than "just let Google index it") 😉

How often should I write a blog post?
I'm sure this has been asked before but I've searched for it in the Q&A Forum and couldn't find any relevant answer. I was thinking that a weekly post would suffice for my blog because the audience isn't one which would be checking frequently + there aren't very many new developments in the industry I'm in that would necessitate more than that. However, I was told that if I can't blog consistently 2-3 times per week, I really shouldn't start a blog, as it would need that much posting. Thoughts on this?

What plugins & tactics are you using for Wordpress meta SEO?
Currently I use All-In-One SEO and I quite like how simple it is to setup and it's stable. Is that still one of the best ones? What are you using these days? Is it worth stripping out the superfluous meta tags that Wordpress now puts in? Is there any value to adding meta descriptions to all my Tag pages and if so, is there a good plugin that will auto magically create unique descriptions for these pages? Same goes for my paginated archives. Thanks!
