Check the links in your category cloud

I noticed a couple of weeks ago that when I clicked on a category the Ryboe Category Cloud Widget I was using on my travel blog that I was just being taken to the home page of the blog which wasn’t very useful to readers of my blog, when what they wanted was a list of posts in their chosen category. Instead of sorting this out there and then, I put it on a to-do list.
Now there may have been a simple way to rectify this problem with the Ryboe Category Cloud but I went for the easy option and this morning I finally got around to installing the Lee Kelleher Category Cloud plugin. Within minutes I had a working clickable category cloud. I was able to do some basic customisation e.g. the font size and the minimum number of posts required for the category to appear in the cloud.
It’s really important to rectify problems like this as soon as possible. It’s hard enough to attract readers to your business blog without annoying them by simple things not working as the readers first reaction may be to click away from your blog if the information they request doesn’t appear right away.
