    I have opened a new blog earlier today :) It's directly affiliated with my business community. It's an internet marketing blog (John, you've got concurence :twisted: ) I hope you all like it. Feedback appreciated.

    Did you feel the need to make an introduction post at all?

    Looks good, if you don't mind the advertising being intrusive you might want to put an adsense block in the top post. Would increase CTR. Good luck!

    Congrats on the design. It's a nice layout that certainly kept me browsing. I agree with JDA06, you might want to consider an adsense block.

    Either in the middle of the post, in which case you could use Adsense Deluxe: http://www.acmetech.com/blog/adsense-deluxe, copying the code straight into the post. Or between the first and second post, as I have done. For this you need to edit the WordPress index file, placing:
    <?php $showAdSense = True; ?>
    Code (markup):
    before the start of the loop:
    <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
    Code (markup):
    and
    <?php if ($showAdSense): ?>
    <?php adsense_deluxe_ads('homeAd'); ?>
    <?php $showAdSense = False; ?>
    <?php endif; ?>
    Code (markup):
    (where 'homeAd' is the name of your set ad in Adsense Deluxe, before the end of the loop:
    <?php endwhile; ?>
    Code (markup):
    Hope that helps, and good luck with the blog
