Thats cool, I started there too. Lisa Page Daily Home Business Blog.
wordpress.com limits you and doesnt let you have full control of your blog. I would recommend buying your own domain and download wordpress.org and install it.. You will be able to do so much more to your blog. All the best bloggers seem to use wordpress at wordpress.org

Why not make a nice header? You need lots of content to. We expect that, of course. Best of luck, Bill!

I couldn't have said it better.
