Blogging Cheatsheets for Blogger, TypePad, WordPress and Movable Type

by Andy Wibbels on October 24, 2005

Confused by your blog platform?

Can’t remember where a certain feature is at?

I created some blog cheatsheets that map out the interfaces of the popular blogging platforms: (in Adobe PDF format)

Blogger Cheatsheet

WordPress Cheatsheet

TypePad Cheatsheet

Movable Type Cheatsheet

Thanks Andy. A very timely and much appreciated resource to counteract the effects of my advancing age and diminishing memory! :)

Cool — another mindmapper! I used MindJet to plan out my website and I also use it to plan my products and teleclasses. Hadn’t thought of using a mindmap for this though — thanks for saving me some time, Andy!

These are excellent, Andy…thanks so much!

Thanks Andy for letting me have an early sneak peak at your “cheat sheets”. I like the one page layout as opposed to the outlined, several page version that I made for TypePad. Great work, much appreciated, and always welcomed. You’re the best Wibbels!

I love the mindmap – thanks for your work – I am new to blogging and I had my assistant set it up for me, and i am wondering if he did it right regarding SEO purposes. If anyone knows and could give me advice on how to make my blog more search engine friendly I would really appreciate it. My blog is located on my link above. thanks in advance.

Andy, I want to send a huge THANKS. I screwed up something on my blog and didn’t have access to your book. I knew I could count on finding what I needed by coming to your site. The template is perfect to figure out what I did wrong.
Cheers!
