Launch Day Approaches

Uncategorized Jan 26, 2012

workingmenshealthandfitness.com  is starting to take shape. We have several good articles up there and the WordPress theme is looking good. Tonight I added social sharing buttons to the bottom of posts and I tried to test them. I think they work, but more testing will be necessary.

A few essential elements remain – number 1 among them an email subscription box. Almost without exception people who are really good at blogging say they regret not starting email lists from day one, so I’ll learn from their advice and have one up by the end of the week. 

I think we also need a ‘getting started’ page – something to tell people what to do when they get to our site.  I imagine in time it will become a mess of blog posts despite being arranged by topic.  Hopefully a getting started page will increase usability for visitors. 

Frank and I are really getting excited about this site. I think it will be a valuable guide for guys who think they are too busy to get and stay healthy.  Of course time will tell if we are right.
