Your Unique Looks (Template & Logo) makes your blog seperate, different and memorable plus brandable. Then it comes to your content, depending how well and good you provide content. Visitors stay or leave ! :) Though I haven’t been blogging much successfully.. but to be honest, what I learned from blogging is Content is King, Custom Looking Template is sure the Queen !

I'm actually a law graduate, closely fitting your profile. However, your article may be discouraging for anyone who dares to move on to the next best thing (in this case, programming) - not a 'bad' or 'good' thing in itself. Since you're writing about 'stages', it'd be worth <em>better highlighting</em> the fact that all those stages are part of one's personal evolution. We do, typically, start with a fair share of "incompetence". As we learn stuff and have various experiences, we tend (well, at least some of us) to progressively reduce that incompetence, stepping further in your paradigm of programming competence stages. Right now, I'm at Stage 1. Reading various stuff about PHP/MySQL, design patterns, OOP, database design, toying with stuff like Wordpress, MediaWiki, OpenGoo etc., trying to learn as much as I can. All these while dreaming about and conceiving step-by-step my own HR management software, that would supposedly bring more cash into my pockets. I happen to have a clue about how terrifyingly huge is this world I'm stepping in, but at least for now my naivete rules. Nice article, though. Stage 1 is spot on in my case.

Возникла проблема - купил я электродрель на <a href="http://bjyouth.com" rel="nofollow">магазин ру </a> А она сломалась у меня в тот ведь день - гарантии практически никакой не дали. Просто почта пришла с коробкой, а там все на китайском. Прописал в торговый центр этот, дали ответ, что обращайтесь в сервис центр, но у меня ни документов на руках нет, ничего. Как можно приструнить данный онлайн магазин? Есть ли некие компетентные органы, что писать. Куда писать, кому писать. Сделал ошибку, да, нужно было в торговом центре нормальном купить, но нужной мне модели просто не было, да и дешевле в интернет-магазине. А вот и уже сижу у разбитого корыта. Подскажите, что делать. Привет. Возникла проблема - купил я электродрель на магазин ру

Подскажите, как перевести блог с бесплатного хостинга, вот мой блог <a href="http://apokblog.ru" rel="nofollow">жизнь</a> Вроде как wordpress обязан легко двигаться на новую площадку, хотя у меня все время ошибки в базе данных. Я глянул там, но в php ничего не знаю как говорится и привлекать сторонних разработчиков программного обеспечения то же не хочется. Имеет возможность подскажите, как безболезненно перенести блог?

I like to think I'm decently competent, but by no means a master. I’m not really sure where I lie… but I’ve had my fair share of running into each of these 4 types.
