A Whole New Website

Hey! Check it out! I have a blog again! I’ve missed having a blog. While I was over BigCommerce, I had a blog for a while but then my template when a bit wonky & my blog wasn’t working anymore – which is a big part of why I left BigCommerce. Not just the blog, but that the template I had set up was no longer functioning the way it should & the powers-that-be at BigCommerce didn’t seem really eager to fix the problems I was experiencing. So I left.

And went over to SquareSpace. SquareSpace was . . . different. I lost the ability to have a rewards program. I couldn’t have gift certificates. Coupons were a new thing – I’m not sure when they were added but they weren’t available when I first got started on SquareSpace. There were a lot of benefits to SquareSpace, but I still didn’t have a blog.

Now I’m here on WooCommerce. After the amount of work that went in to setting up this site, I’m hoping to keep it – at least for a while. It seems to have a lot more versatility – I think I’ll be able to set up the rewards program again, I’ll have coupon codes occasionally & I’ll even be able to have gift certificates (I think!) So far, I’m liking it. It’s different, but I like it a lot!

A HUGE thank you to my dear friend who helped me with this (truth be told, she did a huge chunk of the work – I’m so grateful to her!) Seriously, I don’t think I would have accomplished this without her – certainly not in the amount of time that it was completed – it would have easily taken me double or triple the time that it took to get this done without her assistance. So, I thank you from the bottom of my heart – you know who you are – I appreciate you so much! You’re awesome!

Anyway, that’s all for now. Let me know what you think of the website, please! Drop me a line!
