Hello, is your website having any difficulties lately? I had to refresh the site about eight times until eventually the 404 error went away and I could read this post!

Yes. It is under a spam attack but measures are being taken to minimize the inconvenience.

Surfing the web, I ran across this place. I am hunting for several ideas for a design for my own site. I like your theme, did you create or change this template? I got a internet site as well and my design looks kinda substandard as a result people do not visit on my webblog very long.

I use the Thesis theme. I was constantly wanting to make changes to my site. Not being very adept at the coding, I needed an easier way. Thesis makes it easy to change almost everything. The key really is to keep making changes, large or small. There are some creative people out there. You don’t need to copy them exactly but use them to stimulate you to come up with your own version. See what works best for you.

Hi, I think your website might be having browser compatibility issues. When I look at your blog in Opera, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, fantastic blog!

Thanks for the heads up. I wasn’t able to replicate the problem but I will keep an eye out for it.

This is the correct weblog for anyone who wants to seek out out about this topic. You notice a lot its almost exhausting to argue with you (not that I truly would need…HaHa). You definitely put a brand new spin on a subject thats been written about for years. Nice stuff, just great!

Amazing blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers? I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you suggest starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m totally overwhelmed .. Any tips? Appreciate it!

I would strongly recommend going with WordPress unless you plan a high-volume site engaged in e-commerce. Get a theme that can look uncluttered. Constantly make minor changes until you feel you are close to the look that you want. As for content, be yourself. Be consistent. Your reader needs to feel that that know you; that they know what to expect. At the same time, you need to surprise them a little once in a while with an unexpected perspective or topic that still in not out of character. Concentrate on blogging in your areas of expertise, with an occasional article that has a personal flavor, something from your everyday life. It is much more work than it appears to be. Best of luck.

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates. I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

If you have WordPress, go to the administrative page and click on plugins. At the top of the page click on add new plugin. Then fill in the space with twitter. That will bring up about 32 pages of plugins related to Twitter. Just read the descriptions. If you don’t have WordPress, I can be of no help, as I am totally unfamiliar with other platforms. Also, I have never used Twitter, so I cannot be the source of more specific advice. Good luck.

Hello would you mind letting me know which web host you’re using? I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different internet browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot quicker then most. Can you recommend a good internet hosting provider at a honest price? Thanks a lot, I appreciate it!

Crawford April 4, 2011 at 5:24 am

I use BlueHost. They host all kinds of sites but specialize in hosting WordPress blogs. There is an ad for them on my home page.

When I originally commented I clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now every time a remark is added I get four emails with the identical comment. Is there any approach you may remove me from that service? Thanks!

Crawford April 3, 2011 at 6:54 am

I apologize for the problem. I was not aware that such an option was available. I will try to find out what I can to eliminate the problem but I am no expert on the blogging software. Do you remember the original comment? That might help me track it down.

Just curious, what wordpress theme are you using because it looks cool?

Reply

Crawford April 2, 2011 at 4:42 pm

The theme is Thesis. Chris Pearson was the author of Cutline the most popular free theme and another that was in the top ten. He decided to develop the ultimate theme. It is almost endlessly changeable. You can have 1 or 2 or 3 columns. You can vary the width of each. You can change the colors, borders and lots more just by selecting the options. It requires no coding for almost all of the variables. I play around with it often. I give it a teak here or there as I learn more about design. It also has been designed to be about as SEO friendly as possible. Click on the ad on my Home page. It will take you to DIYthemes. They have lots more information and videos to teach you. It cost just a little money. I am Scottish and waited a long time before caving in. Now I wish I hadn’t waited. If you do design your own as I did, the main rule is to keep it uncluttered.

Thanks for the comp of your book, but I had to go ahead and buy the version I can hold in my hands. I’ll have it by Wednesday, and definitely will tell you what I “THINK”.

Glad you got it. My email program didn’t convince me that it actually went out.
