Okay, I've gone round and round in circles, read everything and viewed every video several times, posted, etc. and I'm completely overwhelmed.
I'm definitely going to have to rebuild my site to take it from my current host which doesn't support datafeeds, PHP, cURL, etc., to one that does. Got that out of the way.
I think I'd like to create a blog rather than a site again. If that's the better way to go. From what I've read it sounds like it might be, since Google seems to like blogs.
Here are my questions:
1) I've already used the basic PopShops for adding content to my current site and it is relatively easy. I'll want to go to one of the paid options in either PopShops or Datafeedr. I'm impressed with both.
With either one--if I pick a template from Wordpress -- i.e., Gridfocus --
in what sections would I put my products, my smaller banner ads, maybe a youtube video, and also my blog posts? I'd have to replace the existing ones that are part of the basic template -- i.e., recent post, archive and blog roll.
Right now my web site and my blog aren't connected because my blog isn't set up for the paid advertising.
2) What are the benefits of PopShops and what are the benefits of Datafeedr. I know Datafeedr is only set up to work with Wordpress.
3) Which would be easier for me to use? I've already been creating affiliate links on my current site, as I mentioned, but obviously I'd be creating different links because I'd have parent and child links.
4) Are the templates different for Wordpress.com and Wordpress.org?
Thanks!
