DotNetKicks Blogs take the covers off

So you’re looking for a new home for your blog? Well, you’ve come to the right place!

We’ve prepared a WordPress based network for anyone and everyone to come and share their ideas, record their musings, express their feelings…heck whatever folks enjoy blogging about online. The process couldn’t be simpler. Just go to the sign-up page, fill in your desired URL and Blog title, and hey presto, the world’s your literary oyster:

Get your own blog

It really is that easy! One other thing – we know it may seem like it from our name, but your blog doesn’t actually have to be about .NET, we’re not precious like that :)

Feel free to give it a spin, and let us know if you have any questions or requests.

Happy blogging…
RobertTheGrey

    what are the benefits of hosting my blog here, as opposed to say, WordPress.com? Are you going to be auto-posting blog articles to DNK, or something? Something to bring the blogs together, and make a community of bloggers?

    Alarion – sorry about the delayed reply, the email notification got lost somewhere there. But to answer your question, yes, the blogger has the ability to put their DNK API key into the blog settings and each article they create on their blog will be auto-kicked.

    In conjunction with the bloggers, we hope to do exactly that, bring together a close community of bloggers all passionate about technology. Only time will tell…

    All the best.

    I’ve tried to sign up twice now.  I get no confirmation email.  First time was a few weeks ago.  Second time was today.

    Hey Trevor – drop me an email on robert [at] dotnetkicks telling me the blog name you chose and I’ll see what I can do to get you up and running quickly.

    All the best,
    Rob

    ok.  thanks.  I sent you the info.  BTW will there be a page of list of blogs or somehow else integrated into the main site?

  • http://blog.robertgreyling.com RobertTheGrey

    Thanks, I’ll action that soon. Yes there will be a list once the blogs have had some time to get some content. There are a few starting to get traction and we’ll be profiling some of them in our next newsletter and following ones, and once we feel the time is right, we’ll get a list up on the main page of the most active ones. There will more than likely be some sort of mild qualification criteria before appearing on there :)
