Blog Setup Service

Although this service was again originally designed for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators, it can be modified to help assist other business types with their specific setup needs. Please contact me with a list of your specifications and I'd be more than happy to provide a personalized quote.

Such items may include (but not limited to):

1. Installation of a new banner and color scheme (see Blog Design if you need a new, customized banner developed). Design fees are separate.
2. Installing a free template. For example, there are many free Blogger templates out there to choose from; I'd be happy to install that for you.
3. Adding a subscription widget like Feedburner or Feedblitz.
4. Creating Link Lists (to link to other pages on your own site or to other resources).
5. Store Setup.
6. Creating a Navigation Bar.
7. Adding a "Follow Me" area - links to your social networks (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Pinterest, LinkedIn, etc.).

If you don't have a blog setup at all and completely starting fresh, you need to setup an account with TypePad, WordPress or Blogger:

• To setup a Blogger blog, click here.

Additional Considerations

You are responsible for other blog related services fees. For example, if you use Typepad, then you are responsible for their monthly fee (starting at $8.95 and up).

I will also be more than happy to assist you in setting up your domain if you choose to have one (you can purchase them through me at www.BlogsByHeatherDomains.com). A domain you would like your blog's address to read www.BlogsByHeather.com instead of www.heatherporto.typepad.com for example. Domain registration fees are separate but very affordable, normally lower than $9.99 a year (not monthly).

Contact me to register for one or more of these services: blogsbyheather@att.net.

[auto insurance quotes]

I tought it would cost much more than that to have a blog overhaul. I find your charges are reasonable and keep your details for the next time I need help with my blogs. I have been quoted rediculous figures.

[Heather Wright-Porto]

Hi Katie!
I can help with WordPress blogs, but normally don't deal with hosting. Although I do have the capabilities now throught www.BlogsByHeatherDomains.com: http://www.securepaynet.net/hosting/wordpress-hosting.aspx?ci=43232&prog_id=460157

So if you have a WordPress blog already i can help. If you're looking for WordPress hosting, I would highly recommend Amy Celona but do have it myself through www.BlogsByHeatherDomains.com.

What do you need help with?

Let me know,
Heather :D

[Katie Brandt]

I know Amy does wordpress, but will you do at some point also?

[Ruby @ Science Camp]

Too bad I just had my blog designed by another contractor. If you have a price list, can you send it over to my email? I'm really interested.
