Would You Pay?

Yes, thats the question; Would you pay? The question really is Would you pay to read some of my Writing pieces that I am writing?

As most of you know, I have a Series called the “NCIO Team” and it is about a group of Forensic Specialists, Investigators and Special Agents on the NCIO Team (Nation Criminal Investigation Operations). That is not the only series I write; although the other one I have not started yet and it will be quite similar, but a little different.

Here is the First writing of the “NCIO Team” series, called Welcome to the NCIO Team.

Take a read at that and let me know if you would pay to read full writing pieces of that Series and the new and upcoming series. I want to get some idea of people that would be willing to pay.

Note: I have not decided if I am going to charge, quite yet.

Have you ever Guest Posted before? I started Guest posting on a blog called, “WordPress Hacks” back in July; but sorta went on Hiatus for a bit. I just started coming back to continue posting on WordPress Hacks.

Back in July, I made a post about a Plugin called PingPressFM back in July and a post that I typed up later last week just got posted this morning about a plugin that lets blog readers recommend posts, pages or the entire blog to others.

I definitely plan on having more posts going out in the future on the blog and I really have enjoyed writing for them recently.

Spam Trying to Take Over

If you own a website or have a blog, you probably have gotten spam one time or another, right?

Lately, I have been getting between 8 and 20 spam comments each day and I thought about this issue and I just realized that the plugin that I had before is not working because of the theme change about a month ago.

Over the course of the next day or so, I will be re-activating this plugin and adding the code to the comments.php file to make it work again. Yes, this means once again you will need to know your basic math facts, just simple adding, subtraction and multiplication… Maybe an April Fools Trick on you guys will make it harder for just that day, thats it!

Updated: Looks like the way I handled it, fixed it!

Refreshed Blog

I upgraded the blog a little bit ago and I’ve been changing things around on it little by little. I felt it was finally time to let my subscribers to the feed know.

I am using an Free Revolution theme, called Revolution Church. I needed a darker look on the theme and I felt that this theme did the trick, with modifications still happening little at a time. I’ve made several changes to the blog and I think most people like it. Do you like the Freshly designed blog?

Some of the changes included, a new logo, a few non-disturbing ads (not Google ones), Featured content on the homepage, upgrading the Wordpress Core to 2.7 and more…

Changes are still being made to the blog, little by little as I said earlier and I will be putting some of these changes in effect in the next month or so. New changes will include some new plugins, such as a “recommend this post” feature and “rate this post”.

Feedback is always welcomed, you can send that in by using the Contact form on the Contact page.
