Creating My Own Blogging Website

I decided to give myself a challenge recently, so I could do a bit of coding in my spare time. Seeing as I am writing blog posts almost every week (bar the odd long gap), I thought it would be great to create my own website where I can host my blog. At the moment I am using GitHub pages to host the website on my own domain:

My websites front page

One of my first blog posts has the details on how and why I did it, so check that out here:

My current blog posts page. No pagination at the moment, but I have some ideas…

I won’t have all the features that I currently have on wordpress, however I will continue to add more as I think of more ways to improve. It is really giving me a chance to learn more about HTML, CSS and JavaScript, putting my 70480 qualification to work!

Any feedback and comments are welcome!
