We recently did a major overhaul to our main site here at The Personal Growth Channel. For years, we've been using the free blogger platform from google, which is where this personal development community started.
This week we took a gigantic leap forward by migrating everything to SiteGround with WordPress and Thrive Themes.
So far I'm very happy with the results. It was a tough migration, with hundreds of articles and many pages to convert, but we're up and running! If you find anything odd just let us know.
New Features
Comments
There are quite a number of new features available to our members. First of all, after being turned off for a long time, comments are back on!
Guest Authors
We have also implemented a formal guest author protocol, designed to allow others in our community to contribute meaningful articles in the personal and professional development space.
Integrated Store
The integrated store is also open for business! You can get items such as a goal setting workbook, our balance workbook, and our healthy habits course.
With this update, we now can move forward with a wide variety of upgrades that I've wanted to do for a long time. Stay tuned!
Sweet blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News.
Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there!
Many thanks
Hi Rosaline, my best suggestion is to keep writing helpful stuff and make sure you’re on a good host and theme. The article “How to get ranked high in Google’s search results” might be a worthwhile read for you as it talks about some of the optimizations we’ve done here. This site has been around for a number of years so has been picked up by a lot of places.
