Summary

This chapter covered how to back up and restore your blog. I’ve given you tips on how to keep your blog healthy and functioning. I’ve also given you some ideas on how to feed your blog-how to keep it fresh and interesting for your readers.

My intention in these six chapters about WordPress was to show you how you can use it to build an active and lively community centered on your interests. WordPress is a great tool for self-publishing. It’s easy to shape to suit you and your readers.

If you aren’t already up and running with WordPress, your next step should be to find a hosting service and go for it! Pick a subject you are passionate about, install WordPress, and start blogging!
