Thanks for the comment. I’ll admit, I’ve not looked into Posterous extensively. The whole idea of emailing to blog just didn’t seem to resonate with me for some reason. Seemed to lack the permanence you’d get with a hosted solution – I realise this isn’t the case, but that was the feeling I got from it, so I took it no further (This was an internet age ago, so I may well need to give it another look!).

WordPress is my weapon of choice for content managed websites these days. This site runs on WordPress, and it’s what I offer most of my clients. Simple to set up, and relatively straight forward to brand, it also benefits from an extensive ‘plug-in’ community, meaning that if you need your site to do something special, chances are someone has already written a plug-in that does what you want? It’s also free which is a big seller to me.

Cheers
Matt

Useful post.

I’d like to hear what you think of Posterous and WordPress.com if you got a mo.

I was speaking in ‘internet years’ ;-)

Geocities started in the mid 90′s…..

I too had one of those. Now I just have plain old domains. Better traffic. Easier to promote. Easier to remember…
