By default, a WordPress website displays the blog page on the home / front page. For example, when you go to the Business Blogging 101 website at http://mcbuzz.wordpress.com you see blog posts with the most recent post at the top of the page and earlier posts below that.

WordPress allows you to select a different page as your home page, so that you can display more traditional content like information about yourself or your business. You can also create another page to use as your blog page, with a link to that page in your site navigation. Watch this tutorial to see how to do this.

One problem you may run into when you make a static page your home page is that the link to that page now appears in the main site navigation, so that you have two links to the same page – usually the page called “Home”. The second part of this tutorial shows how to remove one of those links from your site navigation so that visitors to your site are not confused by the duplicate link.

The theme was created by Zoomstart. Check out their web site.

Videographer Features

  1. Most bloggers know that you can easily embed YouTube videos in your blog. What’s not as well known is YouTube creates thumbnails for all the videos uploaded to them that you can also embed. That makes it really easy for us to create an index of clickable thumbnail pics.
  2. I’ve put together a modification to WordPresses get_excerpt in functions.php that tightens it up nicely.
  3. Videographer also has some ad blocks (ad_header.php, ad_sidebar.php, and ad_singlepage.php) that allow you to easily throw in your ad code.

  • The sidebar shows “Latest Videos” except on the single post page where it shows “Related Videos” or the most recent videos in the same category as the video you’re viewing. Which is good because most people will find your video blog through those single post pages so you want to show them related content
