Don’t be Shy, Tell your Readers your Name

Don't be Shy, Tell your Readers your NameHmmm maybe this is just me, but I’ve read a few blogs lately, and I’ve enjoyed reading the blog posts, but when I look for who is the author of the blog, I’ve not found a name! How are you supposed to create a community or readership, if people don’t know who is writing the content.

I realise some of you will want to remain annonmoyous for security reasons, but why not use your first name, or even your middle name, it’ll give your blog some personality. So don’t be shy, let people know who you are.

    I guess it depends on the theme you are using.I’ve seen some themes without the author info. under blog posts.

    True, but it’s very simple to add it to your blog theme using WordPress

    < ?php the_author() ?>

    Within the index.php wherever you want to add the author.
