This blog was down yesterday for a few hours due to the change between blogger and WordPress Platform.The blog is up now but I’m still building the sidebars once I have to transfer all the widgets to WP.All of you that are visiting this blog please be patient and check it soon. Thanks

To add: Sidebars are already working, I configured the permalinks to be equal to the blogger ones and I possible will change the theme. My favorite one isn’t working with these widgets and I can’t figure out why. I’ll keep trying

I’m not saying that Bluehost is the best but it was the one that gathers more positive opinions.

  • Bluehost control panel is easy to use
  • Very easy to install WordPress platform
  • Has it’s own FTP, no need to install other FTP program
  • Price is really affordable
  • No records of big down time
  • Live Support Chat even on Sunday night (I tried it!!)

So far so good!

Changing to my own host service and WordPress Platform

The domain of this blog is hosted for free on Blogger, but not for too long. In a few days the transference of this domain to Bluehost.com will be completed and I have a lot of work to do. I’m going to change the platform to WordPress so, in order for the blog to have a short downtime I have to work fast. I already changed my www.usefulstuffblog.com to WP, added a few plugins and I tried it to get some knowledge of the new platform.I don’t know if there is an easier way to do it but here is what I intend to do:

  • Install WordPress with Fantastico
  • Install some themes and choose the right one (I already have one in mind)
  • Install some Plugins
  • Copy all the codes in the sidebars
  • Build the Blogroll (I guess I have to insert the links one by one)
  • other details will be added later

I hope to do this very quickly, so if the blog is down it will be only for a couple of hours.

I use homeopathy has an alternative medicine for my kids. My daughter just went to her routine appointment and she’s fine from her allergies so we will probably have a winter free of asthma attacks. To increase her defenses and prevent colds and the flu she started taking nutritional supplements appropriate for kids and with lots of Vitamin C.Prevention should be done before the diseases arrive not when they arrive. I always count on prevention in order to try and have a better life.

I’m quitting Commission Junction

I’m removing the banners I had on the sidebars from Commission Junction. I’ve been advertising some companies that were related to this blog but after 14.460 impressions and 22 clicks (between 2 blogs) I have 0$ commissions, so I feel there is no need to fill my sidebars with banners that are there only to show a product or a service. I’ll continue to write about products, promotions and discounts on my posts without having the exposure of the banners, just in an informative way.
