I use Blogger, but I beleive Wordpress has more functionality. Just never had the time or the resources to really figure it out. <br /><br />Is there are particular site (ip) tracker you use? I use StatTracker.com on my blogs. It is free and seems to work fairly well, no complaints. <br /><br />Is there any way to back up all your posts in blogger without the risk of losing everything/crying in a corner/hitting rock bottom? I should know the answer to this, but I don't. <br /><br />For those who self host, do you need to be versed in the intenet to do so? (cause I'm not always computer literate. not at all.) Self hosting is still going to require some dedicated webspace where you post what ever you do, in what ever format. The only tricky part is figuring out the format and figuring out how to set up the RSS feed. Not as complex as you might think, but not that easy either. <br /><br />Is there any way I can become a millionaire off of blogging leading to days spent on the beach with my laptop? Ask Slyde, he already sold his soul to the devil has sponsor adds on his blog. <br /><br />How do you make those little hearts on facebook? Don't care...but making little middle fingers on Facebook....now that I would want to learn. <br /><br />Is it just me or does twitter grow more addicting over time? Not really, I have had an account for about a year and rarely use it. <br /><br />Healthy natchos; how do I make them? "Healthy" and "Nachos"....isn't that an oxymoron? <br /><br />BloggersinSinCity: a somewhat good idea, or an extremely good idea? It is only a 4 hour drive for me...so extremely good idea!Bruce Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10898228670873232050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7844104853412353746.post-714483446609655162010-01-16T19:33:44.820-08:002010-01-16T19:33:44.820-08:00When I self-host, I'm MOST DEFINITELY using Wo...When I self-host, I'm MOST DEFINITELY using Wordpress.

Google Analytics. On your Blogger dashboard, go to "Settings" and then "Export" at the top to save all your posts and comments; template has to be backed up manually. I don't self-host my blog, but have done it with other sites before and it's pretty easy so long as you understand how to structure a website. No. Make sure your Num Lock is on, then hold down the Alt key and hit the number 3 on your 10-key. It's not just you. The only way to get healthy nachos is to just make regular nachos and not eat them. Extremely good, unless you are Mormon and/or addicted to gambling.
