Blogging design and appeal can be very crucial to the amount of traffic a particular blogger may receive. Just like anything else a blog is more attractive if it is decorated with color, appealing text, and minimal graphics (looks like I should take my own advice, huh!). When researching this topic I chose to compare two random blogs and determing which one was more appealing to me. The two blogs I chose to compare are Best Practices for Microsoft Business Intelligence and Pesky "Page Cannot Be Displayed Error". Although they are both meet my interests the "Pesky" blog, done in a bright orange color, grabbed my attention much earlier than the "Best Practices" blog which was done in a boring, darker fashion.
Some of the common design effects though were links to other bloggers of the same interests and links to other technology based logs. If business technology tickles your fancy I highly recommend visiting these sites. Also, If you would like to obtain more information about blogging design and appeal please visit Neha's site.
