Summary

Today's question comes from Paul, who asks how I would structure blog for preparing for a test and learning a new topic. Paul talks about my niche site, Green Exam Academy (http://www.greenexamacademy.com/), which I set up to prepare for the LEED exam. I recommend using a self-hosted WordPress blog (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPwQvnar99w). Do you have a question about blogging? Record it at http://www.askpat.com/.
