Transitioning and Technical Issues

I know it has been about a month since my last post.  I have been procrastinating.  I have been reviewing my blog strategy and discussing it with some friends who are a little more savvy than I about blog issues.   One of their recommendations has been to get away from Blogger. 

I have been using Blogger for 7 or 8 years and I have had some issues with them.   My original blog ran 5 or 6 years and then out of the blue for some reason which was never really clear to me, they deleted it.    They told me that I had violated some rules about spam but would not elaborate or even allow me to talk to anyone about it to figure out what they were talking about.  

In spite of that, I restarted the Blog and I stayed with Blogger to a large degree simply because it is very easy to set up.   Some things however are not easy.   Although there are different templates, I have not been happy with the appearance of the Blog and it seems difficult to adapt.    I understand that the Blog appears differently depending on a number of factors but I often find that the columns get messed up which makes the print difficult to read and just generally makes a bad impression.    Also, some useful tools to help drive traffic to the blog are not easy to access.  

My buddies have suggested that I set up my own domain name and use a little more robust blogging platform.    I have been working through some of these issues and the actual blogging has taken a back seat to these tasks.    I still don't have everything figured out just yet but I am hoping to make a change and hopefully improve the overall look and effectiveness of the blog.    

I am a little nervous about the transition but I hope to have the sites link to each other for a while (assuming that I am not violating any of the sites policies in doing so.

So, keep an eye out for a change.   AND hopefully after making the change, I will return to a more regular schedule.

Have a great day!
