Search the Community

Hey everyone, how's it going. I am posting the first contest I promised last year. Life got in the way but I've come up with a little challenge and I hope you'll participate. This challenge is a blogging one that revolves around creating content specifically for your target market. It is more on blogging with WordPress than the technical side. Although there will be some SEO challenges. Stay till the end of the post and I'll give you a sneak peek at April 2016 Challenge This (February) challenge is great if: You are procrastinating about writing content for your blog Simply want a catalyst to write more blog posts You want Feedback from others Want to engage the community for maximum exposure If you want to join, reply to this thread and say "I'm in!".

I'll explain more under Prizes Section. I need 3 - 5 people minimum to make this viable. Pending interest, I will register each participant a page on my site to track the points through comments.
