I want to wish all my readers very happy holidays and best wishes for a great New Year! I really appreciate all the support that you guys have shown to this blog and especially to my long time loyal readers.
This blog ranks really high in SERPS and get’s a lot of love from Google and a lot of that is because of you guys that make such valuable comments and show the SE’s that you enjoy the content provided via tons of traffic and dynamic participation.
In fact, this blog has now reached a milestone of 3,200 comments…yaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!
In case you have not noticed I finally redesigned the site and I think it looks a lot better than before. If you guys notice anything wrong or not working properly I would appreciate you letting me know, I checked several times, but you know never know what might have been missed.
I think that fresh designs are important for any blog for several reasons. You will find that you will outgrow your design at some point, you may need more features or a more complex design, and the main reason I think that when we first start our blogging we lack the experience to have foresight for features that we might need, or layout elements and as we get better and better at blogging we will always find something that requires a better or different design.
So don’t be afraid to try new designs and change things up a big once you’ve outgrown your current theme. Here is a simple and step-by-step guide where I detail how to painlessly change themes without affecting visitors and traffic at How To Change Blog Theme in the Background.
New Twitter Feature Added to My Blog Comments
I have added the Twitter Link Comments plugin to the comments, so you can add your Twitter username with a link to follow you on Twitter in your comments, enjoy!
Notice: Issue With Reply To Comment Feature
The regular comments are working fine, but the WP Thread Comments plugin that I was using for replies and nested comments is having problems with the new theme as the submit button is missing, so until I find a solution the reply feature will not be there, sorry about that. A total pain as I will have to try to figure out how to make it work or find an alternative. If any techies are reading please help!!!!!!!!!
If you wish to know if I, or another reader has replied to your comments, just select the Subscribe To Comments option and you will be notified via email, sorry for the inconvenience.
Stay Tuned for Great New Posts
I am planning lots of great posts in the coming weeks with new stuff I have discovered for link building, making money online and Internet Marketing…so stay tuned!
Once again thanks for the support, best of luck and success to all your new year endeavors and happy holidays to you and your families!

Merry Christmas JR. Thanks for commenting in my blog; that is how I found my way here and added your blog to my dofollow bloggers and Commentluv lists at Twitter. In hindsight I really wish I had thread comments installed from the beginning so you may want to get it fixed soon.
I am thankful that we use Thesis in all our blogs because they test and make sure new versions of WordPress and common plugins always work. That is why so many bloggers use Thesis.

I know, I wish I had checked this prior to using this theme, I checked most everything else, but not that. I love threaded comments and I am working to fix it. Thanks for the add, I am working on a list of Commen Luv blogs as well and have added yours too! Happy holidays!

Merry Christmas, JR. The new theme looks great, BTW. I’m also using the Twitter comment plug-in, and my commentators seem to like it. Your blog is the only other place I’ve seen it used so far.
Have a great holiday, and I look forward to your upcoming posts.

All ready tried that one, got nothing, thanks anyway!
I also agree with gail big time, I so wish I had it in place from day 1.

Nested comments seems to be working OK. Blog looks good although it does tend to hang a bit at the beginning before loading the rest of the page. It may be worth looking into that.

@ Sire
Thanks I will take a look at it.
OK. It worked fine that time. May have been a glitch somewhere. OH well, I thought it best to leave another comment before you pulled the blog apart looking for something that didn’t exist.

I’m having a few issues myself with my move to the new blog – between a new theme and new WP version, some plugins I use now aren’t cooperating nicely.

That is always the case, there will be some issues. Use the Theme Test Drive plugin I mention in my post on how to convert themes easily and test everything out with the themes you want to use before implementing.
Handy, where do you mention this?

Thanks Matt, I was just writing about it. Some of mine went up and some went down. Still making money, which is all that counts
