Integrated blogs and websites – At last – writers have caught up with the multi-national companies!
Finally – something to cheer about! Writers can now get reasonably priced websites with integrated blogs! I’ve been looking for this for ages!
I think most people have a blog these days, and many writers also have a webpage – but it’s always been such a challenge to find a site which will link one to another effectively, without a massively obvious transition (change in colour scheme and font etc) and change of menus. AND one which doesn’t cost hundreds of pounds!
Take for example my old blog site. http://joannesmedley.blogspot.com/ It was good enough, but the blog didn’t hold the links to my “publishing credentials” and my website couldn’t integrate with my blog… UNTIL NOW! (if you’re reading this – you’re on my new blog! How very exciting!)
For writers still struggling with the whole blog / website thing – I’ve found a company who can help. Mark and Gill at Crystal Pyramid have worked with me for a number of years now at Red Herring Games and they understand what an author needs. So if you want a blog integrating into a website, and would like a professional website, with your own domain name, that’s self editable – they’re the people to call. You’ll find them here: www.crystalpyramid.co.uk
Now I’ve just got the task of updating the things which automatically link to the old blogger blog, which let’s face it, does more for advertising blogger, then advertising me!
