I have been blogging for over 7 years, writing on a number of blogs, both my own & on other blogs of interest. I have been featured in newspapers & appeared on the radio to talk about blogging, and am often consulted on matters to do with blogging. Below are my more popular blogs, as well as some of my favourite guest posts on other blogs:-
My Blogs
The Gospel According To Rhys
The Gospel According To Rhys is my main blog. I have been running it for a 7 years in various forms, but it has been running on Wordpress for the past 3 years. It is a personal blog, that focusses on technology, SEO, social media & internet news. It has been featured in The Guardian newspaper, as well as been featured on the BBC Radio Wales show “Mousemat”.
As well as the blog, I also write a free monthly newsletter to do with blogging.
