Blogtastique is a new service that was was co-founded by one of MakeUseOf long time authors Daniel Pataki from HackYourDay. Blogtastique helps you setup and start your own blog, get a custom theme for it, find and install necessary plugins and more at absolutely no cost.
You can either let them do it for you or simply request free assisstance in case you don’t trust them. Basically, they can do the hard work letting you focus on producing content. So if you ever wanted to start your own Wordpress blog but felt a bit intimidated by the tech side of it then Blogtastique is for you.
Free features include complete Wordpress installation and database setup, Plugin and theme recommendation and installation, and more. You simply need tell them your domain name, provide them with restricted access details and they will do the rest.
(1) Wordpress and Database Setup : Yes, these guys can do this for you for FREE. I am not aware of any other web service that does this. You only need to give them the FTP and MySQL user details. (2) Plugins and Themes : They can recommend you the right plugins and themes and install them for you. You can either give them your own list or let them find something for you.
(3) Blogging Tips : Blogtastique folks also give you a quick summary outlining how you should present your articles, how to get maximum exposure and when to publish the articles, fix design inconsistencies, over-complicated styling code, inappropriate fonts etc.
In case you’re wondering how Blogtastique makes money, they also offer premium services. For a monthly they can keep you updated about Wordpress developments, do wordpress upgrades, design a custom theme for your blog, send you weekly updates, performance reports, deal with spam, moderate your comments and lots more.
