Reviews blog

[detoam]

Sorry if this not the right place for this. Please move it into the right category if need be.
I have been thinking for a long time on the theme for my blog and then it hit me. I have started a blog of reviews. It's not paid reviews. I only will accept reviews that people can back up. Meaning they need to prove to me that the review they are providing are of the company they have in fact dealt with. I post reviews of companies, software and services that webmasters deal with.
My problem is actually creating the ranking system. If someone has any ideas please let me know. The blog is at detoam.net/blog
Thank you very much

detoam,
Can't figure out the software that powers you blog, perhaps the is a plugin for that blog software that will provide the service you are looking for.

It's a serendipity. I have edited the theme a bit. Actually now that You mention it I think there is a community rating plugin. Thank You.

Yes, a plugin is a much better solution than custom programming as that will cost you a lot more to have it created for you.

[detoam]

I thought so as well. I'll use the plugins for now. But since I am trying to teach myself PHP, HTML and the rest it might be a good practice.

Yes, it will be a good practice but you want to start with simple stuff first, plugin may be quite challenging for a beginner.

[detoam]

So true. So far I have only figured out basics of PHP, HTML and CSS. Usually I am a quick learner. It probably doesn't help that I pollute my brain with my fascination with history and science. But that's just an excuse as my Dad would say.

Your Dad is a wise man

Yeah he is. I wish I knew him better, though. He kept most of his life a secret from us. Whatever I do know is mostly not really important to family history or I had to really dig for it. And confronting him is not very advisable.
