    • Block Theme Building Tips February 28, 2022
      When building block themes there is often more than one way to achieve the same thing. It’s often not clear which of these options is preferable.

      With the Full Site Editing project well underway, theme developers need to be thinking about what the future holds for themes.  Why block themes?

    Social Media is no longer a hobby. It’s a required tool for store owners.

    by http://www.1choice4yourstore.com/july-2011-news.html Do you remember the first time you heard the word social media? How about the first time you heard the name Facebook? Where were you when you heard about the first tweet? No matter where you were or how you heard about them, I bet you never imagined that you could be using these "tools" for your business. Yet, social media has evolved and your customers are on Facebook, they are tweeting, they are blogging, they are reading seo blogs that accept guest posts, they are watching videos, and they are connecting with multiple companies every day. That's why an online presence is so important for businesses trying to grow their client base. For smaller businesses and more...

    You don’t need a voice to be moral! My “WWYD” experience.

    So a week ago I get an email from Kiss & Makeup telling me that as a thank you they want to give me and a select few, a free Eyebrow Shaping and gift on May 11. I’m thinking…that’s so nice! Maybe because I’m their web designer and they appreciate all my good work….. Either way I was pleased. I set up an appointment for 4:15pm on that day knowing I had a 2:30pm appt with my ENT to figure out what’s up with my lost voice. Three weeks before I had lost my voice and it never came back. I go to my Dr. and am told I have nodules on my vocal chords and if I ever want a...

    LOGO MATTERS!

    About half of all businesses fail within their first few years. One source of failure that is commonly cited by experts is sloppy or ineffective marketing. If your marketing materials do not stand out from those of your competitors, your sales will suffer. The initial lack of customers and cash flow often causes new small business owners to put off designing a logo and marketing materials professionally "until they get a few clients" or "until they get started." Unfortunately, designing their own marketing materials when they launch their businesses instead of having them professionally created will make getting those initial clients more difficult and may result in a business that will not succeed. When you start a business, you need to create...
