I have decided not to give up on tumblr.  I will document my journey/experience in business, commercial art, and retail here including most of my Instagram posts.  I could not keep this as my professional blog because I couldn’t keep up with the micro-blogging and maintain quality.  I decided to go with Wordpress and BlueHost to make a website/blog for my business.  So far it has been a good experience although I did have to refresh my memory on css/html to get the site the way I wanted it.  But there are lots of great templates to choose from as a base.  I also decided to keep the site very simple for now and just maintain the blog until I can add more pages.

My website/blog will be launched soon and so I researched some tips on what to do to make the launch successful.  Here are the links I found:

Also, I stumbled upon this website/blog which takes about making money as a blogger, which is something I’m definitely interested in.  I hope that I can make money through my wordpress website/blog.
