Theme Wars - Where WP Themes ‘Battle’ Posted: 21 Jul 2009 03:29 AM PDT This is one of the cooler ideas I’ve seen in a while - it’s a WordPress theme site with a twist - ThemeWars. Each week two WordPress themes are featured and readers are asked to vote for their favorite. While obviously the site’s about selling WP themes it’s also kind of fun and will be interesting to see what themes win each week. The winner gets put into the theme store once the week’s results are in. Nice idea and the first two themes up for your vote are pretty nice themes too. Post from: Blog Tips at ProBlogger. |

Overall they classify people’s reasons for going online into 7 broad categories:
Interestingly the order they’re listed above is the order from highest to lowest that they found people go online for. Within the categories ‘pass time’ was the most responded to result with 100% of people saying that they go online for this reason. You can also look at the results based upon gender and age. For example
Other highly rated areas (80% of responses or more) included:
As I read through the categories and sub categories I realized that this list of reasons for people to go online is gold for bloggers looking to improve their blog (or particularly for those starting out and wanting to choose a topic that has every chance of being successful). I’m constantly talking about how a blog needs to be useful or needs to be fulfilling a need that a potential reader has. Here’s 20+ such needs that people have that a blog can help fulfill. Which one is your blog positioned to connect with. Post from: Blog Tips at ProBlogger. 22 Why Reasons People Go Online: Which is Your Blog Connecting With? |
