There are a lot of  WP themes around, but I find only a few themes for blogengine.net blog platform.

I'm working on a tool that will automatically convert a wp theme to blogengine theme.

I'm using dot net framework  and C#. 

Now, I have also a Romanian/Moldavian blog about Internet Development in Moldova and web development in general.

 MSDN: Catch Up with Microsoft Rich Client Technologies for 2008

 

Event Overview
Overview:
 
In this half-day session we’ll do a refresh of the technologies that we can use to build rich, interactive clients with .NET in 2008. We’ll take a look at how we can be cross-platform, cross-browser with Silverlight 2 and yet get the full development experience of a .NET application and then we’ll explore how we can take that further with the Windows Presentation Foundation V3.5 Service Pack 1 which allows for the richest, most-productive development model for Windows applications. There’ll be lots of demos and code as we bring you bang-up-to-date with what’s happening in the world of Microsoft clients.

Thats great, but where are the clients?! 

Just found this post on some forum:

the truth is SEO will not work for your blog if it is new. The way to go is social media. My blog is only 3 months old but alexa is nearing top 100k. Blog income just reached $600 a month.
All these thanks to stumble upon, Digg and reddit.

Add many friends in these networks.
Be active. 
Contribute to their communities.
Submit your posts and make sure not to spam.
Do not become an affiliate whore.

The most important thing is always support others. Contribute with quality posts. If you find a good post written by someone else , do not hesitate and add it to the network, It will only do good for you.

If you follow this formula you cant get wrong. If you are really good you will get 200-300 visitors in hours. Not in a day. 

I need to do some marketing, again, for my personal website in order to get a new project/contract.

I'm looking to build an intersting website using asp.net C# tools from Microsoft and MS Sql Server as a database server.

If I don't find in short period something to work on, I'll start a personal project. I'll tell you more about it in future posts. 

But for now, I intend to use office live for my new company website. And I want to try Microsoft Ad Center (https://adcenter.microsoft.com/) to advertise my services localy (Coventry, Birmingham)

 I hope they will remediate dot net errros soon...

Daniel Braithwaite, IT RecruitmentConsultant, from Computer FuturesSolutions called me, Yesterday.

 He was proposing me a dot net job in west midlands area. I refused this job, because it was not a web developer (asp.net C#) position. It was a windows forms C# developer job.

So, he then  told me about a SEO position. I was interested, becasue I like to do online marketing and search engine optimization.

In about 2 minutes I've impressed him with my SEO results for my company website. Take a look on my results.

 Some SEO statistics for my website :
