I'll be posting a summary of the series thus far this week or next. The SEO plugin that I sent you in the other post will also help quite a bit.On your related-posts text size: You don't have li and /li tags wrapping around the links. In:"Before / After (Post Title) :"Add the < li > Before and < /li > after (without the spaces). This should fix both the text size and the "wrapping".When you change the number of posts from 5 to a different number, when you go back to the page, does it still say 5 or does it show the other number?I just did a post on the UBD-Block-Ad plugin actually. In order to fix the "blank page" issue you'll need to use Internet Explorer 7 instead of FireFox.

They might be useful in some search engines and SOMEWHAT useful in Google, but not terribly. I would find sites that relate to your content and contact their site owner about exchanging links, just don't do it in a "spammy" way. Let them know you are starting a new Blog and that you were wondering if they would include you in their link list or blogroll. Let them know that you're up for linking to them as well. 2 - It is quite different. I plan to do some future tutorials on this. I'll make a post this week on the "Basics" to help you on your way. :) 3 - You want the All-In-One SEO Pack. It is a Wordpress plugin that will help you in many, many ways. See: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/ 4 - I would start with Google, which you already have. I would also recommend Chitika: https://chitika.com/mm_overview.php?refid=bliedel Yes, yes, the link is a blatant affiliate URL which means that I'll make money from Chitika if you make money from Chitika, but then...it is in my best interests for you to make money with them if that is the case, thus I wouldn't recommend it if I didn't think it was worth recommending. :-) Chitika offers some really interesting ad options, but it also offers a feature called AdPro which I will be reviewing in a future post. AdPro allows you to make direct ad sales, but Chitika will take care of the signup, billing, and ad serving. You keep 100% of the profit, they take nothing. It is a free service they are offering to their members, likely to help increase popularity of their brand even further. I think it is just great! 1 - I wouldn’t spend $19.29 on link exchanges.

I also need help with two widgets. The related posts widget isn't showing the list properly and when I change the amount of related posts in the settings it stays at 5 - the size is also larger than other text. Also, the ubd-block-ad plugin isn't working right for me at all. Every time I put code in it, the screen goes blank before I can even save the settings. I just want a widget that will allow me to put 125x125 ads in the sidebar easily. Hopefully I will have a need for it.
