What is true is that I found very short but interesting articles and I have no problem at all reading those, but not the same case with long articles.

You’re right Karen. WordPress is pretty good in SEO; not to mention a fantastic plug-in that you can choose to install.

Thanks again for dropping by!

Hey Gab, you won’t regret migrating to wordpress if you love organic traffic. On any day, google will sent about 30-50 visitors to my blog. You just need to write post with the right keywords and traffic will flow in

You’re welcome Karen, Syaf, and Missy!

Pictures do speak a thousand words, don’t they?

I always picture out Google as a serious company, but it’s nice to see Google getting weird from time to time.

It won’t be easy migrating to WordPress. However, I believe everything will pay off in the end.

Thank you all for visiting my blog and reading my article! I truly appreciate it.

Hi—Gabriel: Wow! How cool of you to profile me and my blog, i do appreciate it. Thanks for the mention, the visit and your support. I must say that i am confident in my switch of blog platform from blogger to wordpress. I have to tell you though, that it has not been as easy as i though it would be, only because of my very limited software skills. However all is moving along nicely, just yesterday i got my own domain name, i’m super excited about the fact that it was available. Yippee! I also got my own hosting yesterday as well, and i was able to do the one-click install of wordpress on my domain name, i am now awaiting for the DNS stuff to propagate through the net. Then i will work on the theme and widgets, etc.

Again thanxs for the mention, i also like your blog collage, that looks really cool. See ya around. Missy.

Hey Gabriel,

Thanks for the mentioned and I am very happy to be your source of strength. It was the aim of our blog to spread positivity

And I like the way your blog is structured, very organized and eye pleasing and you made me realize how much a picture or 2 really spice up a blog post. I better consider posting some relevant pictures to spice up my blog post too!

And I agree with Thomas that not every one enjoy long posting. But James and myself find it hard to stop writing most of the time.

Hugs,
Karen

Sure webaction. I’ll visit your blog regularly. Thanks as well for all your kind words.

Oh, thanks! Now I’m beginning to read posts more and more.

@Thomas Hamburger Jnr,
I agree. You made me realize how important balance is not just for the design, but for the content as well. Thanks!

First impressions. If only I could turn back time…

I think, on balance, you’re right. A well-designed blog doesn’t compensate for poor postings, but it’s like meeting someone for the first time at an interview. You have a few seconds to impress, and if you don’t crack it as soon as you walk through the door, no matter how hard you try with what you say, you’re fighting against first impressions.

Kind Regards
