Elsewhere in the world of WordPress, Chris Lema shared another 40 blogging topics, this time for WordPress agencies.

On the Mad Lemmings blog, you can read about their top 10 tools for creating a blogging empire.

With three years of service now under their collective belts, I take a look at the Easy Digital Downloads plugin on the Pagely blog to see how it can help you sell digital products from your WordPress website.

Also on the Pagely blog, I take a look at Give, a free plugin which allows you to accept donations on your WordPress website, and keep all of the proceeds. This WordPress donations plugin features a great design to suit the most creative of websites.

Over on the Colorlib blog, I review the WPJobBoard plugin. This tool includes everything you need to set up your own job board, or list vacancies on an existing WordPress website. WPJobBoard even includes a suitable theme to help you get up and running as quickly as possible.

WPMU DEV recently released a new front end page builder tool for WordPress. You can check out my Upfront review over on the PremiumWP blog. Its early days for Upfront, but could it be the future of WordPress?
