Horizontalisation

I told you I wouldn't stop messing around with it didn't I?

There hasn't been a 'website news' blog for quite some time so there are quite a few changes:

  • New layout with links across the top and pages split into blog related sections.
  • New pages showing bits from all the blogs including the about pages.
  • New section in the Site part for 'Projects' into which Losing Time has been absorbed.
  • New Reading page to show what I'm currently reading.
  • The website has moved again (physically - the address remains the same)
I decided at some point that I should redesign my website, if only to prove my own assertion that it would be incredibly simple what with the php based design and it was, relatively.

On rotating the page, I realised I would have to trim the links, so I started by splitting the links into rows, the top one with 4 links to blogs, which now included the newer writethisforme blog and the 2nd one with links to pages within the site.

But then I decided It needed more pages than that apparently, so I turned the links at the top into sections of the website, each with a bit of the blog and pages relating to the blog in links, I found each of the pages in tumblr blogs has its own rss feed, making some of the pages quite easy to implement.

Then I decided to do some new pages, A reading page to show the book I'm reading and I think the last 15 books I read, I found that GoodReads has rss pages, so I could show the information quite easily. The original idea was that I could show all my reviews I wrote of books, especially since I decided to review all the ones I read this year, but then I decided not to, I think the books themselves is more than enough.

Losing Time is something else I have been working on, it had it's own section, but I thought it should form part of a wider projects section.  I had nothing really to put about the other projects, but they can come later if I do start work on any of them.

Regarding the move, I had an email telling me about UK based hosting from Hostinger and my website kept on going offline. When I tried moving though I was informed my website was already hosted, how do I move then? I silently ask my screen this question.

So I removed my name-servers and A records and set up a redirect to a temporary website address that came with the hosting package, then a few days later I tried adding my regular address again and success! It worked. So I'll stay here for a bit I think.

I left my sub-domains where they were for now though, they seemed less important than the already incredibly unimportant regular website that I only update for myself.

  1. I hope these changes work in your favor. Because changes can sometimes backfire. I remember when I changed the layout of my website, my customers could not find the Personal Statement Writing Service on it. Consequently, I lost a lot of sales due to it – because that was my top-selling service. I hope the same doesn’t happen to you.

  2. I believe this will help your website become more organized because you have decided to set a part on this site for the inquiries regarding tax and as well as the helpful discussions. To be honest, this is one of the few sites Buy gadgets online that are doing this kind of strategy. Also, I think that this will not only benefit your clients or the potential ones but you most especially buy vape online

  3. Horizontalisation is an intriguing concept that challenges traditional vertical structures. The article on wannacorndog.co.uk provides valuable insights into this transformative approach. It's fascinating to explore how horizontalisation can empower individuals and foster collaboration in various domains. While the blog post discusses horizontalisation, I believe the topic of university assignment helpers is equally important. Websites like British Assignments Help provide valuable support for students, ensuring academic success. Check them out for reliable assistance!
