 * Hi All,
 * I have just put my first every wordpress blog up at [http://www.mywinkb.com](http://www.mywinkb.com)
   and as its my first Blog I would appreciate any feedback on how you think it 
   looks etc or any usefull plugins / widgets I should be made of aware of that 
   you believe could make my blog a success.
 * I realise not everybody here will be interested in the content, but I thought
   they may still have some valuable input for me.
 * Thanks

 * Thanks for the comment Michael – I should have pointed out really in my first
   post that I used a template for this site, So the design work I can’t really 
   take any credit for!
 * Thanks for the tip on Backups too – Thats another job for today!

 * Another thing – although my new is only 2 days old, It has had 46 hits from the
   Googlebot, but it still doesnt appear in google when I put the blogs URL – Can
   anybody enlighten me as to why? Or am I just being too impatient!
 * Cheers

 * 2 days old? you don´t have to worry about google. If you post content google 
   will index your site, for sure! I suggest you to add your URL to google manually:
   [http://www.google.com/addurl/](http://www.google.com/addurl/)
 * MyWinKb you have a nice site. I don´t know, maybe I´d like to see some images.
   What do you think? It would be more entertaining.
 * Congrats for the site.

 * Hi Salenco,
 * Thanks for the post – I think you may be right about the more images part. I 
   was wondering about that myself, the purpose of this site in the first place 
   wasnt really for it to be entertaining, it was more for an informational view,
   Although when I think about it now, more entertaining might be a good idea.
 * Thanks for the google URL link too 🙂
 * Another thought, whats the deal with WordPress, Flash Videos (.flv files) and
   Google (SEO stuff) Is that generally considered as something good, or something
   bad?

   com’)

 * Great informative site. I agree that a bit of eye candy would be good.
    I also
   like that you are writing the articles yourself, and not just pulling someone
   else’s work into your ‘blog’. Good Job!!

 * Definately good work, and clean. I agree with the pictures, maybe like a screenshot
   pic of what your discussing in the article. To minimize front page space maybe
   cut each article off at some point to a read more page and include most of your“
   diagrams” there.
 * Other than that, it looks great.
