blog-setup

Blog setup covers everything between deciding to publish and having a site that works: choosing a platform, getting a domain, the settings worth changing on day one, and the ones that can wait. It includes the parts people usually discover too late — where the RSS feed lives, whether it carries full text or a summary, and whether search engines and tools can find it automatically. Getting those right at the start costs nothing; fixing them after a hundred posts is tedious. The articles here are platform-specific where it matters and general where it does not. They are written for someone doing this once, not for an agency setting up sites weekly.
