    Sorry Swoop - was busy. I'll leave it to Slick. $17 does seems a tad high for a domain name. Maybe not actually as I was thinking about a tenner so that's around the same-ish.

    I've just checked it out and wordpress is allready setup , seems Swoops has bought his domain name through some wordpress server or other and he gets a domain name and wordpress install for the price.

    over to you Mickey as it only needs a theme adding and you know what my tastes are like, I'll pm u the details.

    Aye, I was. In fact with a couple of caveats I was a bit more than 'relatively' impressed. :thumb

    Yeah, you could put a story up. The shorter the better, probably, so that casual visitors are more likely to read it through before drifting away. And you're right - it counts as published so there are rights issues.

    I put links to decent writing sites on my site - swapping links with other writers (hint), interesting resources, other sites I contribute to, my other 'writing' sites (Twitter, Facebook, YouTube), etc etc. Also a biography and contact details - not that I've added them to mine, yet :embarassed I haven't bought a domain name yet, either :embarassed

    Couldn't you add a copyright notice to anything you put up there (or bottom of the site)? I'm not entirely clued up on the law regarding... anything in fact but I'm pretty sure you retain all rights to your own material. I think that applies even in forums. In fact, most content management systems have a copyright notice on the bottom of all pages using your domain name.

    Think its something like if you post up a piece you can only then sell it on if its on a password protected site? Otherwise its deemed as being in the public domain, which means its then worthless.....I think. Also, I can take a hint TC :D but I have no problem being linked to here either, because undoubtedly I'm going to mention gambling (watch me log on in a mo & find its already linked :lol) The difference here between me & TC is he has already got books to advertise whereas I havent, so I've got to fill it with other rubbish

    Ahh, going along nicely. Added betnod (nearly said TDP then :embarassed) & TC's site as links, but now cant see where they are :hissyfit

    Michael, if you would be so kind.......also, how can I put the name in a post & it links it straight there?

    :lol Not a clue what you're talking about Swoop so I'll assume it's Slick again. He's causing me no end of grief lately. I'll get back to you on your question in a wee while. Hold tight and stay safe yeah?

    And while the cat is away... the Mickey will play.... I'll post later on then about the linking as I need to look at the editor in there again to see where it is exactly - it's very, very, simple though.
