It seems to me there are not enough instructional sites on blogging catering specifically to people who are new to blogging. If you know your way around different CMSs or you’re very familiar with WordPress for instance but would like to be made aware of the latest helpful plug-in or theme, there are plenty of places where you can find this information.

I’ve talked to a lot of people who express interest in blogging but sound overwhelmed at the thought of what they would have to learn to get their own blog up and running. And while it doesn’t require a college degree, let’s face it, there is a learning curve.

BigBlogTool.com looks like a site geared specifically towards people who are tempted to start a blog and create a web presence for themselves, but really don’t have a clue where to begin. There are reviews of blog tools obviously, and pointers to tutorials and various tips from all around the web. There are also posts with general thoughts on blogging, where blogging is going as a medium, and what you probably do and do not want your blog to be. All good things to keep in mind as one gets their blog started.

It’s a good looking site using WordPress and the Thesis theme. It looks pretty informative and I found a couple plug-ins for WordPress that I didn’t know about. I would say that if you have a friend or relative who asks you where to look on the Internet to get started in blogging, BigBlogTool.com would be a pretty good site to suggest to them.NULL
