This week’s shopping bonanza will focus on blogging and resources for eager minds who want to delve deep into the minds of bloggers. After using both Blogger and WordPress to power my blogs, I firmly believe in WordPress, which is why I’ve included the WordPress instructional books and not the Blogger books. Most professionals will advise that any serious blogger get started right away with a self-hosted platform – it might be a bit outside your range at first, but these books outline a lot of the super technical stuff really well. Beyond that, it will save you the hassle later of having to move everything over to another platform when you’re ready to make the jump (trust me, losing readers and traffic by switching URLs and losing some posts in import isn’t a walk in the park.

That’s right, I’m gearing up for my first ever contest here at TrishaLyn.com. I’m not really going to make people jump through a million hoops with some complicated point structure system to win – but I won’t lie, it will have to benefit me in some way of course.

Prizes are being compiled, details and rules drawn up, and everything should be ready soon. So in the meantime, stay tuned!

Oh, and a Free Toolsday post obviously didn’t happen this week…mostly because yesterday felt like Monday and it slipped my mind. So a really good one will be coming next week to make up for it, I promise!

Want to donate a prize for the contest? E-mail me at Contests@TrishaLyn.com!  For those of you interested in donating, the audience is readers of my blog… so businesses, performance marketers, entrepreneurs, bloggers, etc.
