A Time for Change – Making Changes to the Website

Revising and Rewriting Articles

By Remez Sasson

Every now and then, I take one of my older articles, read it, and work to improve it, and to make corrections or changes where necessary. I believe that when one writes regularly, in time, the language and style improve, and therefore, it is a good idea to revise, and sometimes, even rewrite the whole article.

It is not only a matter of revising, correcting, re-proofreading, correcting typos, etc., but also adding new content, new viewpoints, or just making the idea of the article clearer. This means that it would be a good idea for you to read again the articles, because you might find them a little different, from the previous time you read them.

I recommend for everyone who owns a website or a blog to read older posts, correct and revise them. It is not only the newest articles that matter; all the articles matter. It’s true, there are websites that write about current topics, such as the news, about new gadgets and about new software, where the newest articles are more important, and sometimes the older articles might become obsolete.

Running a Website and a Blog, Side by Side

By Remez Sasson

You might have wondered, why I run both a website and a blog, instead of just one of them. It is also possible that you haven’t noticed this fact, which means that the website and the blog are very well integrated.

When I began creating SuccessConsciousness, back in 2001, I started with a website. At that time, blogs were not so popular as they are now. I started blogging a few years later, because blogs became popular, and also because many websites started blogging.

In time, WordPress, the platform used for most blogs, became popular, and more and more people started blogging. WordPress made building a website an easy and simple affair, much easier than building and maintaining an ordinary website.

At first, blogs were more of a personal journal, but in time, due to the simplicity of using them, people began using the blog software, as a platform for building websites, even commercial websites.

The Redesigned Website Has Been Uploaded

By Remez Sasson

I am happy to announce that that I have finally finished redesigning my website, and have uploaded it. I hope and believe that you like it, and would be happy to read your comments and suggestions, which you can write in the comments section below, on this page.

Please visit the redesigned website at www.SuccessConsciousness.com.

The truth is that I didn’t intend to make such a big change. Actually, I was satisfied with my website as it was, but my wife insisted that I make just some minor changes, like changing the colors and the logo.

One evening I made sample page, and we started making experiments with the colors on the page. After a while my wife mentioned that the links on the left side of the page looked too bold, and asked me to change them, and see how they looked, if they are not typed in bold fonts.

At first I thought it would be a lot of work changing the appearance of all the links on all the pages, but then I asked myself, “Well, if I will have make changes in all the pages, and then upload the whole website, why not make some more changes?”

New Theme for the Blog

It is time for change, and as you can see, I have changed the theme of the blog. You can still find the same articles, only the format and look have changed, and I hope you like them.

I have changed the theme of the blog to the Studiopress Genesis Framework, Magazine theme, which is versatile, and easily managed.

The current format is not final, as I am still experimenting with the layout, colors and placement of the various links.

Do you like the new format of the blog?
