    • Hello, I am not sure if the issues are due to a web host or something else as it’s all part of the WordPress account bundle. Their customer support assists me with any issues. Sorry I can’t speak to that.

  16. Have you ever thought about including a little bit more than just your articles?

    I mean, what you say is important and everything. Nevertheless imagine if you added some great images or video
    clips to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video
    clips, this website could undeniably be one of the very
    best in its field. Good blog!

    • Yes, I have and am working to add more images; that is my weakness and something being addressed slowly. Videos are not possible right now due to budgetary constraints – permissions require an account upgrade. Thanks for the compliments too 🙂

  23. I’m really enjoying the design and layout of your blog.
    It’s a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more enjoyable for me to
    come here and visit more often. Did you hire out a designer to create your theme?

    Excellent work!

  24. Hey there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
    I’m going to start my own blog soon but I’m having a hard time
    making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs
    and I’m looking for something completely unique.
    P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!

  27. Virtually all of what you state is supprisingly legitimate and it makes me wonder why I hadn’t looked at this with this light before. Your article really did turn the light on for me personally as far as this specific issue goes. However there is one factor I am not too comfortable with and whilst I attempt to reconcile that with the core theme of the position, let me see just what the rest of your visitors have to say.Well done.

    • Thank you. My visitors often do not comment on specific posts or share their opinions here. However, I do encourage people to be skeptical about everything I share here. Do their own research, ask questions, and use what works for them because what is true for me might not be true for you. It’s okay to disagree with me or feel uncomfortable with what I share here. I am not perfect and not an expert – just someone hoping to offer support and choices to others through multiple perspectives.
