			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-402 aligncenter" title="BFN's one year anniversary" src="http://www.blogging4novice.com/index.php?feedimage=wp-content/uploads/2008/11/bfn-1year.jpg" alt="" width="380" height="200" /></p>
<p>It seems that my schedule is a bit tight lately. My last update was on the 5th. I should have spent a little more time on weekends to do some <a title="Plan Your Scheduled Posts" href="http://www.blogging4novice.com/writing/plan-you-scheduled-posts/">scheduled posts</a>.</p>
<p>Have you notice some changes made to Blogging For Novice? All these changes were made after I received a kind <a title="Blog Review from IGTB" href="http://www.idiotsguidetoblogging.com/2008/11/blogging-for-novice-blog-review.html" target="_blank">blog review from IGTB</a>. (Do you still remember I mentioned about <a title="Get a FREE Blog Review" href="http://www.blogging4novice.com/seo/get-a-free-blog-review/">getting your blog reviewed for free</a>?)</p>
<p>Here is a list of suggestion from Raivyn, author of IGTB.</p>
<ul>
<li>Moving the list of recent posts up above the tag cloud and perhaps even above the categories.</li>
<li>The AdSense block could be designed better &#8211; matching it to the page (white background and border, blue links, grey/black text) and moving it up a bit (move tag cloud below ad block).</li>
<li>Tutorials that are a little more &#8216;meaty&#8217;, and expand on some of what has already been presented.</li>
</ul>
<p>I tried to improve this blog&#8217;s visibility base on the suggestion above and I think it turns out even better and more clean and neat comparing to the previous setting. (Thanks, Raivyn!) And for the content improvement part, I will have to spend more time reading and of course, to spend time writing them. As for the time constraint now, I&#8217;m unable to come up with any &#8216;meaty&#8217; tutorials.<span id="more-397"></span></p>
<p>By the way, today (26th November) is Blogging For Novice&#8217;s <strong>one year anniversary</strong>. Oh wow! Time flashes!! As this is my secondary blog, I am not able to update it as frequently as my <a title="A.P.P.L.E" href="http://www.xiaoyenzi.com" target="_blank">personal blog</a>. Since, it&#8217;s a one year anniversary, I would love to make more improvement. I&#8217;m open for any suggestions as i believe Blogging For Novice still have room for improvement. Your comment(s) will be most appreciated. ^_^</p>
<p>Another thing that every blogger or webmaster must take note is the expiry date of the domain. A week earlier, I have contacted my host and renew the domain ownership. Do not make the same mistake like <a title="Advertlets Domain Expired" href="http://www.xiaoyenzi.com/2008/01/advertlets-domain-expired/" target="_blank">what Advertlets had done before</a>.</p>
