A few weeks ago I asked Andrew Rondeau from We Build Your Blog to help me update my self-help and personal power blog at www.pinkblocks.com. I know. Kind of weird name for that! As well as revamp my personal one.
My Pinkblocks blog has been up and kind of existing since mid 2007. Originally I was going to post just self-help articles but ran out of steam and ran blog carnivals as an easy option to keep the blog going until I could decide what to do with it.
Then a few weeks ago I had the opportunity of placing some advertising on the site and thought I should get back into this topic. But the blog desperately needed some attention. As for my personal blog, that looked like it was out of the Ark.
I had been following We build your Blog for advice on how to run an effective blog. It offers easy to understand Information on writing articles, marketing and managing your blog.
For totally technically challenged individuals such as myself We build your Blog offers an excellent service to help with setting up and improving ones blogs.
What was especially wonderful was to find somebody who cared. Andrew Rondeau the brains behind We build Your Blog is totally customer focused. What a refreshing way to do business. Almost unheard of in these days where one becomes just a number.
No query was too much, no fussy client request to move the header by one fraction of a mm was ignored or laughed at or heaven forbid charged for with that ‘that’s an extra and that’ll cost you more than the full job’ kind of smirk one normally gets.
My revitalised blogs were up and ready for business at no time at all. And it didn’t cost an arm and a leg. In fact I think for what one gets Andrew is far too reasonable.
But not only was the experience great and my blogs look two hundred percent better and function well now but the other major benefit is that I am getting so much more traffic through and my subscriber base has jumped without my having to do any persuasive marketing for it.
Thanks Andrew for a great service. That’s what business is all about.

Looks like a good way to customize your blog without spending a fortune , Although I’m not that good with PHP and HTML I do like to customize my theme a little , even if your a complete newbie I think a little knowledge of PHP is good to have
