Affordable Web Design
When building a website I will often work on it in seperate folder
eg www.buildyourwebsite.co.nz/test
No one will know it is there if you turn off the “Blog Visibility” in the privacy settings. When the website is ready to launch I use this article to move it to the site root.

As well as the wordpress stats plugin, I use Google Analytics for getting statistics for a website.
In order to validate your website you need to add some code:
Go to Appearance then (Theme) Editor and find the header.php or footer.php file (I used the footer).
Then paste your code above the < / body > code
Update that theme file
After using the free Arthemia theme for a while, Afterlife was ready to move to the premium version. I added some email sign-ups for their magazine and a seperate sign up for those wanting to receive emails of all new content. This is a very attractive magazine theme from Colorlabs Project
