I noticed you do use short form in your blog. Example : "Paid to blog: pt 1" and "Paid to blog: pt 2". It's not good for SEO as well as some readers who might not understand certain short forms.
would something like "how to start blogging" and "make money from your blog" be better titles? A lot of my titles I have also put the name of the company is that bad?
I hate reading white text on a black background. You should make it as easy as possible to read, especially as it's a blog!
A light background with dark text, with as high a contrast between the two as possible. (ie. The highest contrast would be black on white, which is why most sites use that.) White text on black can look cool, but not for reading more than a line or so of text. If you like the black theme you could keep the black border design but have the central text box white or a light colour.
Change your permalink to seo friendly one, in order to change the default permalink structure, you need to go to “OPTIONS -> Permalinks†in your admin panel and paste this code into the BOX after “Custom Structure:†/%category%/%postname%/
