Maybe... Even if they don't work, use those resources, plus everywhere else you can find:

Yes, this is correct. Add links to it that can't be auto-updated.

ZZ Tuel is best used on free/cheap hosting that gives you FTP access, as you will need FTP for ZZ to update your files.

Different 3rd party hosts require different methods.

Also, don't feel you have to update every resource. This is far from the truth.

Sorry, I'm not a blog expert, at all. But I'm sure this is being automated, at least with Blogger and WP blogs.

There's not a firm rule on this...Generally, I like to start with the better sites, then as I add tin sites, I can link to the existing sites.

It's far more important to be productive than to be perfect. Try to get a least 3 links from every resource you build, in most cases, many more.

If a resources isn't easy to update, don't update it and don't worry about it.
