    I'm a writer and very happy with my http://annekleinberg.com site. I would like to add a new section/site - for Mediterranean recipes. I'm debating about a new site (.org or .com ?) or whether to add another section to my existing annekleinberg.com site (its an .org). If I add a section, I'll want a different header. Advice would be much appreciated.

    you could just create a folder - /recipes or whatever and install wordpress there
    that way you can have a completely different theme
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_Multiple_Blogs

    then link to it from your root site

    Thanks Samuel. I'm a bit behind the times when it comes to working with code - and I'd rather than have to teach myself all that. The problem is not how to do it - but rather should I? Would there be an advantage (SEO?) to creating a whole new site and link from mine, or create it within my site?

    the seo is the same either way
    whatever is easier for you to do

    Thanks again. I'm discovering that adding a custom header to certain pages is not possible with my theme (Magazine Basic), so indeed I may have to go the new site route. I recognize the importance of owning the domain name, but do you recommend .org over .com or vice versa?

    I would go with .com as you are not really an organization
