WordPress Update to 3.1 and Jetpack Plugin

I just upgraded my sites to the latest version of WordPress which is WordPress 3.1. I’ve always been apprehensive when it comes to these upgrades due to the fact that we don’t know how stable the newer versions are.

Preparing to Migrate my Main Blog to a New Host

I’m not a pro when it comes to Web Design. I’ve come across so many templates and I don’t want to meddle with them as I’ve other important matters to attend to in blogging. However, I badly need an overhaul. I’m preparing to migrate my main blog to a new host and there are a number of changes on the backend that I have to work. Mainly it’s my URLs and Permalinks to make it more SEO-friendly and efficient.

recounting my finances

I’m at a loss right now with all the money coming in and how easy they go out. Funny how I’m more in debt when I’m earning more than I was when I earned less. Case in point? A higher salary won’t guarantee financial freedom.

Receiving Emails from Advertisers

I received a number of emails from different people wanting to partner up in placing links on my website. I’d receive an email or two to write sponsored reviews about their products/services and they pay me afterward.

Google Page Rank Up to PR 3

My main travel blog’s website Google Page Rank went up to PR 3!

During the last update, I was surprised to finally get my original PR back on track. After about 4 years worth of blogging about travels, it only increased during this year.

one break after another

I thought I wouldn’t push through with this other vacation but after one day at the office, I went off for another flight to another location. Call me crazy and I won’t even bother defending myself. Not that I needed this one but I just wanted to. Bonding with my sibling was a good excuse.

on a vacation

I’m currently on a vacation. I’m out of the country which is another feat because I was recently out, around two months ago. Now I’m back to travelling and it’s been depleting my resources. Good luck to me if I still have some money left when I get back home.

another trip

Will be going out for another trip. So far, I’ve been continuing on my blog spamming and writing some sponsored posts (though a couple of clients would contact me once in a blue moon). Even if I’m not earning that much, I still get to write more sensible posts and articles that get published in order to provide quality content in my blog sites. With this, I am able to provide value and give out information that other people may be able to use.

changing my layout

Been planning on changing the layout of this website because it’s not as friendly with other browsers and even with Chrome, the sidebars are not aligned. Will also be updating my other site as the pictures are not showing.

Photobucket limit exceeded

I’ve been having problems every month with my Photobucket pictures. I have a free account with them and it seems that I’ve uploaded too many pictures or the download of my pictures has the exceeded the allowable 10 GB before the month ends.
