In a previous post I pointed out how the basis of a blog could be built with the Firepow 2.0 software in around two minutes. But that basic blog, although published to the Net, still has to have some work done on it—it has to be optimized for the search engines.

This article will introduce you to the program’s state-of-the-art facility that will enable you to slash your blog management time: The ‘Manage Websites” feature.

The facility could aptly be called a control panel—it certainly gives the blogger effective and efficient control of all their blogs on the one page. Furthermore, a line containing all requisite linking icons, tools and control data is allocated to each blog

Here is a list of what each line carries:

• The blog name, which itself is a link to the blog site.
• A record of the number of posts that have been as well as the date that the last post was made—a very useful tool when managing numerous blogs.
• An indication of the latest version of WordPress, together with the facility to upgrade to the latest version with a click of your mouse. Or for those occasions when there are tens or scores or even hundreds of blogs on your list, and WordPress is upgraded, all the blogs may be upgraded at once—two clicks.
• A single click displays WordPress log-in details and yet another icon takes the blogger to the WordPress Dashboard for that site.
• There are icons to get you to the main configuration edit feature and others that enable editing and posting of articles, as well as the simple creation of a back-up zip file.
• Yet more icons on the blog’s line home you into the unbelievable Content Blitz (you have to see it to believe it) as well as RSS content
• RSS submission, Yahoo answers, The Blog Network (I’ll write that up in coming days) and social bookmarks are all be called up with icons on the blog’s line.

“Manage Websites”, a one page control panel, is a truly magnificent feature that will save the professional blogger (and the newcomer) an inordinate amount of the time now spent on managing blogs.

It’s a brilliant concept.
