Pictures can say a thousand words…but the search engines can’t read those type of words. As a graphic designer, I tend to get caught up in the art at times, only to suddenly remember that it’s not all about what WE see on the website. It’s also about what Google or Yahoo or whatever […]

Comparing WordPress.com and Blogger traffic…is it really possible?
A while back I started my Blogger blog to discuss the emotional roller coaster that an Army Mom goes though.

Don’t Forget To Update Your Sites
I’ve had to update WordPress three times this week, since they keep coming out with new updates. Is it worth it? I think so. It takes less than 5 minutes and I feel that if the update wasn’t worth it, they never would have bothered uploading it and letting us know about it. So remember […]

You’d never believe that I go around teaching people how to blog
<p>When I can’t even find time to get to my own blog on a daily basis. I find that amazing. I’m working on posting this weeks projects and maybe if I get a moment, I’ll get all the projects that I missed up online too.</p> <p>I see definite value in having a central portfolio that […]
Too busy to post
It’s insanely busy here!! I was taking a break and noticed that my blog was being neglected this week. I have a dozen projects in production but nothing to show right now. I did just get some images to add to a fight poster, but it’s not a new design, just some image replacements. I […]
