I’ve decided that updates to this site as well as my other sites will be included in these updates too. It’s too easy to discredit these things as legit dev time, and it’s amazing how much time you can burn doing simple back-end stuff. Ok, on to what’s new:
- My first post on this site had the content of what should have been an “about” page, introducing me and the purpose of this site. So I made it just that, moving the content to an actual page and removing the post.
- This clearly won’t be a high traffic site, and SEO isn’t the goal here, so I won’t bother with tags. I’ll use categories for organization though.
- Social links have been added in the left widget area. I’ve decided against using a plugin to include my twitter feed. Those things can get pretty chunky. I’d rather keep things clean and simple.
- I’ll be using Google Analytics on this site to get familiar with it’s workings. Integrating it using Cloudflare’s GA app was definitely the way to go, easy to set up and ensures accurate results. This site will be the test dummy in that regard, but I’ll be interested to see how my cancer blog performs with GA. It’ll be nice to see if I’m successfully reaching people who need that content and assurance.
Side note: I like blocks. Like really, blocks in WordPress and so simple and dope. No derpy plugins needed.
