What would be the best way to operate a blog? My current website is in html and wondering whether its worth running the blog on a seperate site (blogspot or something?) and then linking from my site to their?

Or would installing something like wordpess be the best option?

Dont really want to redo my whole website if possible.

Thanks
 
Can I link to my website? Without breaking any rules?

Would using a hosted solution have any advantage from an inbound links perspective? Having just set it up Im struggling to get many at the moment.
 
Website is www.mmassociates.co.uk

Appologies about the tables, Ive actually got a test site running using divs so that will be online shortly.

Think I will d/l wordpress and have a play with it but really dont have the time to tfr over all the site to WP.
 
Well, not quite going to plan. WP is installed and working fine but trying to get it to intergrate with my site it showing up my lack of css knowledge sadly!!

Could anyone have a look here and point me in the right direction?

It seems its something to do with the positioning as its overlapping as apposed to stacking underneath each other? But thats as far as my diagnostics goes...

Thanks.
 
Not sure if its the correct way but Ive got it to do nearly what I want it to do by adding the top:469px into the wrapper style?
 
Its more a time thing than anything else at the moment, Ive been building that site for weeks a half hour here and there when time allows. Im working full time and trying to do that on the side so I really dont have time to learn how to use WP and then cusomtise the whole site to get it looking the way I want it to.

As Im sure you can tell my HTML and css knowledge is limited to working things out in Dreamweaver and the odd search on w3c or on here.
 
Wow thats incredibly generous of you to offer and I'd certainly link back to your blog.

Im in no huge hurry to get things over to WP so just do it when you have time. Im just trying to get familiar with the way WP works at the moment and given the time constraints it looks like it may take some time.
