I just finished redesigning my site. <a href="http://www.walton.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.walton.com</a>Yes, it's Wordpress. I think I hit all of these tips. The purpose is to sell my services as a web development and Wordpress consultant, so what you see is aimed at that, though I do get philosophical sometimes. I believe in footers and sidebars. When I find some obscure blog through a search and end up on a back page somewhere, I always check out what else they have on the site and maybe look around if it's interesting. What a timely post.

I'm pretty excited that WordPress makes this list much easier to complete than other blog networks do. After 5 years of hiding and not completing maybe 1/2 of this list, I can see how this applies. Sounds to me like ChurchCrunch is headed for a redesign. I'm just getting that vibe, lol. Good list of the necessities.

You can also check what it'll look like on different screen sizes. It's a very important tool since I use Safari on a Mac with a 1680x1050 screen size and most visitors to my church's website use IE on Windows with a screen size of 1024x768.
