I’ll help you set up a WordPress Blog
I'm constantly looking for new ways to increase my stream of revenue. Since not everybody can afford to pay me directly I've learned over the years that there are ways to substitute monetary payments in the real world. (Not talking about sexual favors ! 
) I started thinking about how useful blogs are and how many people want to have a blog but lack the patience and knowledge to set one up on their own. I've meet people that have bought entire web hosting accounts only to later find out that their web host was not even friendly enough to help them set up a basic WordPress blog. (Mostly all hosts 
) So I decided to provide an incentive for people that don't yet have a hosting account, are looking to get one and need a WordPress Blog.
This offer is only valid if you do not already have a hosting account, are looking for a web-host and want to set up your own blog. If you fall in that category please visit my hosting page. If you sign up for a web hosting account from one of my affiliate links I'll do my best to help you set up a basic WordPress Blog to get you started.
My top 10 WordPress Plugins
This is my list of pugins I consider necessary!
Akismet - Hands down total anti-spam control. Easy to configure just get a WordPress API key by setting up a WordPress.com account.
All in One Adsense and YPN - Simply amazing. Super easy to integrate and the best part is that it lets you alternate between Google AdSense and Yahoo Publisher Network for ad sources. You can select where to have the ads display with great detail.
All in One SEO Pack - You want to be found on search engines right ? Google.com, Yahoo.com to name a few. This plugin will do wonders for you. It allows you to exponentially expand your SEO meta data.
Digg Digg - Great plugin automatically inserts Digg me icons only where you want it to. If you haven't yet you need to sigh up for a digg.com account today and help make the web a better place by digging great websites/articles such as this one 
Dynamic Headers by Nicasio Design - See the logo at the top of this page ? It's actually a .jpg image that I've implemented into my WordPress header with this nifty plugin. What's the big deal you say. I could have just written some html to insert the image directly in there however this is "Dynamic" meaning it allows me to upload a new image on the fly without further altering the header coding. Anything that makes my live easier in the future is better
Flickr Widget - I like this one because it centers my images correctly. I use it mainly to liven up my page. i like to Give you something pretty to look at.
Google Analyticator - Google Analytics !!!ROCK!!! Are you using crappy statistical software such as Webalizer or AwStats ? Please stop! Aren't you sick of inconsistent data reports ? I was so I started using Google Analytics.
Twitter Widget - Tweet tweet ! If you have the tweeting obsession why not further expand it with a simple slick WordPress Plugin ?
WordPress PayPal Donation - Super easy to set up. Simply provide it with your paypal account email and you can be on your way to begging people for money. I mean asking people for support. Speaking of which have you visited my donations page yet ?
Removing borders in LightWord Theme
I've recently fallen in love with the LightWord WordPress Theme however one thing I do not particularly like is the way it put double borders around my links IE: Digg plugin images in my post. It made it look really ugly. If you are also not satisfied with the borders you can go ahead and remove them by editing your WordPress style.css file for LightWord theme. Before you do this make sure to backup your style.css file. Once you have done that you are ready to begin. Go to Appearance > Editor > style.css There are two lines in charge of this under the /*CONTENT*/ section they are:
#content-body table{border-bottom: 3px solid #DDD;border: 1px solid #DDD;}
and
#content-body table td, #content-body table th{text-align: left;padding: .2em .4em;border-top: 1px solid #d9d9d9;border-right: 1px solid #d9d9d9;}
Since I wanted to get rid of the double borders around my image/links in my posts I modified those two lines to the following:
#content-body table{border-bottom: none;border: none;}
and
#content-body table td, #content-body table th{text-align: left;padding: .2em .4em;border-top: none;border-right: none;}
