Just killing some time on Stumbleupon and I found your article . Not typically what I prefer to learn about, but it was absolutely worth my time. Thanks.
I just love this BlogEngine platform, it makes for a blog look and act like a blog if you ask me. Do you like it over WordPress and Blogger?
This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I love seeing websites that understand the value of providing a quality resource for free.
I’ve been around for quite a lot of time, but finally decided to show my appreciation of your work!
My mom and I are looking to create a blogging site much like this for our web site, I stumbled across your internet site hoping to get some ideas on the theme as well as page layout. I am taking some coding course in college and not confident that I would have the ability to create a site like this one just yet. Did you code this site yourself or employ a professional?
Thanks all for the kind words, and we are happy our visitors enjoy the site.
@Byron Levingston – The site is custom build by a professional. You can try to get in touch with my web administrator, maybe he can give you some pointers. thewanderingpalate@gmail.com
