Building your site in WordPress is easy and quick enough without a custom theme… but several of you have asked about how I made changes to the Arthemia theme, to get it working the way I wanted.

Before anyone gets started on this, as much as I wish I could,  I simply cannot answer “site specific” support requests on it, due to EVERY site being different! It will take me 30-60 minutes …

I know that many of you are like myself… there are some tasks, better left to others.

I have had TONS of questions roll in about the Putter Site, and thought I would address several in one post. They range from keyword research to content generation and of course, template and design questions.

Does anyone remember Microsoft Bob? If not, let me fill you in and save your time… It was one of the worst failures Bill Gates paid alot of money to develop! The reason it failed was simple… there was not enough demand in the market, and people just didn’t want it!
If only Microsoft had done their due diligence AHEAD OF TIME, they would have known! Fortunately, we can all learn from their mistake. Your Niche Websites are No Different!
