The Second Commandment of Blogging

Thou Shalt Have A Technically Correct Blog

Your blog should load successfully and fast (several seconds at most). Check regularly for dead links and dead images. Close your HTML tags and make sure you don't have Javascript errors. Browse through your site from as many different operating systems, browsers, browser versions and computers as you can find. Check how it looks at 640x480 in 256 colors, and at 1600x1200 in truecolor. If you use them, check that commenting, search and other 'applications' work like they should. Consult a techie if you are unable to resolve these problems by yourself.
