Your Questions About Blogging For Dummies

Donald asks…

Is "Blogging For Dummies" Trademarked?

I'm trying to figure out if "Blogging For Dummies" is trademarked. I wouldn't use it to make money or for any commercial purposes, but rather an independent website. Would it be legal?

Herschel Lawhorn answers:

Already taken:

bloggingfordummies.com
bloggingfordummies.net
bloggingfordummies.org
blogging4dummies.com

Still available:
blogging-for-dummies.com
blogging4dummies.net
blogging4dummies.org

try to find other possibilities at domain registrar company such as http://www.dynadot.com, http://www.namecheap.com, etc. You don't need to pay for this domain information lookup.

As long as nobody registered the domain name you want you can register it for yourself.

Where can I find a tutorial for creating wordpress theme 3.0 from scratch?

I want to create a new wordpress 3.0 theme but I can't seem to find a nice good tutorial. I only end up finding "how to enable wordpress 3.0 for your theme" but I don't want that. I want something from zero. Could you help me?
I don't want any 2.x tutorials. Only WordPress 3.0.
I really can't believe only one man in the whole Yahoo! world could answer me.

Your Questions About Blogging With WordPress Tutorial

Mark asks…

How can I make wordpress 2.7 look like a regular website instead of a blog?

My site: http://spy323.xtreemhost.com/

So far I've made a static page, added a theme that has some nice options, and added a favicon.
The main thing I want to get rid of is the comment thing.

I would appreciate it if someone linked me to some to tutorials on how to tweak my wordpress site.

If you respond with a dumb answer like "its not possible" "wordpress sucks" "i <3 wordpress" or "wordpress is just for blogging" i will give you thumbs down

James asks…

Blogging and Domain Names with Email?

I want to purchase a domain name to be used for blogging. I don't want to pay for hosting so I plan on using Blogger or WordPress.com to host. Will I be able to also have a custom email address? e.g. me@mydomain

Herschel Lawhorn answers:

Yes. Although some domain name registrars offer email accounts I recommend Google Apps for your domain.

Http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/group/index.html

That's basically Gmail, but with your own domain. They have the instructions on how to set it up. This standard version is free, and you can create up to a 100 accounts under your domain name.
