Wordpress, Migration, and a Free e-book

Wordpress is a very popular and professional blogging platform, but not EVERYONE uses it. I received an e-mail last night asking why I focused exclusively on Wordpress in Blogging in Action.

Chapter 3 discusses many of the reasons, but I can really narrow it down to just one, and it’s a biggie:

Wordpress is Future-Proof: it is constantly updated, entirely customizable, and you control the installation from top to bottom. There is other software out there (like Movable Type) that is similar, but Wordpress is backed by a very strong community. To make a recommendation, I need to be very certain that the product WILL work for you. Wordpress is the only blogging platform that I can recommend with 100 percent confidence.

That doesn’t mean that you can’t have a successful blog on another platform, like Blogger for example. But your chances of long-term success are much higher with Wordpress, and my role is to point you
towards those things that will improve your odds of success by the greatest amount — hence, Wordpress.

WordPress Migration Guide

If you’re not on WordPress, but are considering a move, do your research. A carefully crafted plan is the way to go. Prepare for the unexpected so that it goes as smoothly as possible.

Please use the e-book I’ve prepared for you with my compliments. The guide is a comprehensive look at the many topics you should address during migration, and has received a lot of great feedback
from the blogging community.
