Title: Miniature Wargames go digital

Thought this was quite interesting. I used to contribute articles before the 'digital age' kicked in big style and the opportunity to have a copy on my blog is appealing but from those of you 'blogging experts' what are the risks involved in hosting this?

In the early days of my blogging journey I received a lot of 'attention' from the far east with posters putting links to porn websites on my blog. Not helpful for someone whose paid employment is working with kids.

Its one of the reasons I chose to restrict posts to my blog which thankfully seems to have cured this issue. I wouldn't want to have something like this on my blog and then find it increased my vulnerability to twats who get off on virus spreading and peddling porn. >:(

I can see some people wanting it on their blogs, though I'd hazard a guess it'll be people who already subscribe to the magazine.  From MW's point of view, it's easy free advertising, and Google will love it for their rankings.

I expect it will be so commonplace that it won't make much of a difference to your blog in readership terms anyway.
