The book is titled 31 Days to Build Better Blog and can be found on his site.

The idea behind the book is to teach you techniques to assist you in developing a better blog. Each day you learn a new technique or concept, each compounding on another or something new all together.

Some of it may be common knowledge to me or some of you but I plan to share what I am experiencing each day and blog about it, to be completely transparent. In going through these exercises I may also share info/data related to the other blog I am with MattersofGrey.com as I may not have enough info on this blog to make it worth sharing.

This is a great goal for me, something that I believe will challenge me to:

  • Learn new things
  • Stick to a schedule
  • Have some accountability
  • Build another network with the potential to support me financially

Thanks for your support and I would appreciate your feedback.

I really liked the way he put his together and it works really we on mobile and desktop, hence it being called responsive. It will get me going until I can modify it to meet my needs design-wise. I want to add a little bit of color and change the fonts. Probably going to use a Google Web Font or two. I am also planning on only having the bare minimum of plugins and scripts to keep this running quickly. Should be fun, I have great things planned for the rebirth of this blog RedDolan.com.
