Started a Wordpress blog on a self hosted site? Then this post is just for you. What do you do after you are all set to run your blog. Obviously besides posting, you will want to expand the features set of your blog by installing some cool pluggins.
I already have an earlier post on stuff to do after your blog is ready but this one is slightly different as it mentions the mother of all plugins.
Do you consider yourself a Wordpress configuration expert, can do some basic Php coding, have skills that enable you to work remotely? If yes, then why not help somebody with their Wordpress driven website from the comforts of your favorite arm chair. Not to mention, earning some exotic money on the sides.

Wordpress.com saw DOS attacks beginning Saturday, and the attacks were continuing till yesterday as some of the users still could not log on to their site.
Matt Mullenweg, the brains behind Wordpress and its spokesman, also confirmed these attacks. There were spikes of about 6 GB of incoming traffic rendering the blogs inaccessible by some users for almost up to 15 minutes.
WORDPRESS is a fantastic blogging platform. This free open source application can be used not only for fulfilling your blogging needs over the Internet, but also as a full fledged Collaborative Content Management System (CMS).
You can either have it running on the Internet, to reach a wider audience, or you can simply install it on your personal computer and use it accordingly.
