Although this service was again originally designed for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators, it can be modified to help assist other business types with their specific setup needs. Please contact me with a list of your specifications and I'd be more than happy to provide a personalized quote.
Such items may include (but not limited to):
- Installation of a new banner and color scheme (see Blog Design if you need a new, customized banner developed).
- Conversion to a 3 column format if using Blogger.
- Adding a subscription widget like Feedburner or Feedblitz.
- Creating Link Lists (to link to other pages on your own site or to other resources).
- Store Setup.
For Stampin' Up! Demonstrators
My blog setup fee is $75 and includes the following (can be made custom to suit your needs). This includes the installation of a banner, background, post signature and other graphics designed by Michelle Laycock or other designer you may have used, and of course a coordinating color scheme for the overall look of your blog. If you are using Blogger, this also includes a 3 column conversion.
- ALL current promotions, catalogs, and product lines.
- Links to your SU website and some type of navigation - calendar of events, join my team, promotions, shop online and more. If using Typepad, there is a new Nav Bar feature available for customization. Looking for a customized nav bar? Click here for more information: custom Navigation Bar.
- Feedburner/Feedblitz - allows people to subscribe to your blog (stay updated when you post).
- Newsletter Signup - if you use constant contact, vertical response, or Debbie McNeil's newsletter services, I can add a signup box on your sidebar. Would then need additional login information for that.
- Categories - although you will enter these as you post, I will make the spot in the sidebar for them.
- Monthly Archives.
- Stampin' Up! Featured Projects of the Month.
- Stampin' Up! YouTube Channel button.
- Online Ordering button -- links to your Stampin' Up! website.
- Stampin' Up! Disclaimer.
- Facebook, Twitter badgets/updates. Facebook/Twitter integration (auto post your blog post to FB and Twitter) is an extra $25.
- Feed your blog posts into your DBWS blog (included in setup).
- Counter.
- Any other things that may interest you that you've seen on other blogs and want on yours? For example, a survey, a search bar, adding pages for your Clubs or setting up a blog store page template.
Setup reduced to $45 if you join the maintenance program!
This is a service to help you maintain the sidebars of your blog when new promotions, catalogs, products or featured projects are released. You don't have to worry about keeping your blog up to date! I do it all for you at an affordable monthly rate as low as $12.50!

Additional Considerations
You are responsible for other blog related services fees. For example, if you use Typepad, then you are responsible for their monthly fee (starting at $8.95 and up).
I will also be more than happy to assist you in setting up your domain if you choose to have one (you can purchase them through me at www.BlogsByHeatherDomains.com). A domain you would like your blog's address to read www.BlogsByHeather.com instead of www.heatherporto.typepad.com for example. Domain registration fees are separate but very affordable, normally lower than $9.99 a year (not monthly).
Contact me to register for one or more of these services: blogsbyheather@att.net.

I tought it would cost much more than that to have a blog overhaul. I find your charges are reasonable and keep your details for the next time I need help with my blogs. I have been quoted rediculous figures.

Hi Katie!
I can help with WordPress blogs, but normally don't deal with hosting. Although I do have the capabilities now throught www.BlogsByHeatherDomains.com: http://www.securepaynet.net/hosting/wordpress-hosting.aspx?ci=43232&prog_id=460157
So if you have a WordPress blog already i can help. If you're looking for WordPress hosting, I would highly recommend Amy Celona but do have it myself through www.BlogsByHeatherDomains.com.
What do you need help with?
Let me know,
Heather :D

Too bad I just had my blog designed by another contractor. If you have a price list, can you send it over to my email? I'm really interested.
