Ricardo V - Pages
- Pages, in WordPress, are static linked sites which are attached to your homepage/blog. Unlike posts, which update on the first page/archives, pages can be set to permanently remain in one static spot. Usually pages are used to keep extremely important/relevant content visible for your reader to see. Pages are useful to highlight key themes/topics on your blog. An example of a page is the default “About Me” page.
- 1. About Me Page
- 2. Contact Page
- The about me page can be any representation of you as a person, you as a blogger, your company, and/or your theme. It really all depends on the level of privacy and anonymity you wish to keep. The about me page is a representation of your commitment and goals. Also its important to note that when creating an about me page try to make something which is worth viewing/reading.
- A contact page is basically a page where you can have an email form attached to your email. Allowing your readers to get in contact with you for technical, advertising, guest blogging, or any other reason is essential to any blog. One simple way to create a contact page is with a plugin.
- An example of a plugin which provides a contact form is WP-SpamFree.
- Links-Blogroll
- The blogroll on your site is the default category for your links. “Blogroll” is the name of the category and can be deleted/modified to your liking. Links are beneficial for the following reasons:
- Advertisments
Link Exchanges
Guest Blogging
Search Engine OptimizationMany times links can be used to forward your readers to other blogs, sites, or forums. It’s important to use your link space wisely as to not clutter the blog/sidebar of its much needed space.
