I finished 1 book(s) this month and read about 730 pages. To celebrate being over officially halfway to my goal, I decided to slow it way down and read a very dense and long book. That’s why I only finished one in April. Let’s take a look!
Between a certain Game of Thrones and Avengers: Endgame, I’ve been seeing many complaints about things being spoiler on social media. Even with the lengths I went through when Infinity War came out, it was still spoiled because a careless YouTuber (me) let autoplay happen unregulated, and another YouTuber (the guy in the video) opened his video with a HUGE spoiler, no warning. This time around, I’ve gone through greater lengths. Here’s what I’m doing to avoid spoilers.

(more…)Let me just start by saying: number of downloads is a vanity metric. I know it’s something I love to see grow, and it is a way to measure progress. The more downloads, the more people you can potentially reach. But sweating over the exact number of downloads you can drive your crazy.
(more…)I finished 4 books this month (about 1,200 pages!), and it was a pretty diverse set. I’m now on the 10th book of the year, which makes me just about half way to my goal (of 21 books) at the end of Q1. Very exciting! Let’s get to the recap.
(more…)I’m not gonna lie – I was really looking forward to AirPower. I was willing to pay entirely too much for it, because I’m all about wireless charging. As of today, Apple announced they’re cancelling AirPower. Since Apple announced it (all the way back in 2017), I’ve looked into AirPower alternatives, but never made a purchase. Here are the ones that look good to me.

WordCamp Miami has a killer lineup of speakers, and there are quite a few that have been on my podcast. If you’re heading to the conference and want to learn a little more about them, listen to these episodes.
(more…)The About page is one of the most visited pages on your website. It’s also one of the first pages people visit to see who is behind the site and if it’s worth their time. They want to know you and your site are credible and reliable. In this article, we’re going to look at how to write a great about page!
There are 2 crucial parts to any website, no matter what service you want to use. One is hosting, which can come in the form of a full controllable server you buy from a company like LiquidWeb or SiteGround. It can also come in the form of a full service website business, like Squarespace or Shopify. The other is a domain, which is the web address that people will use to get to your server. No matter what hosting service you use, you will always need to make sure you choose the right domain name. Here are some tips to make sure you buy a good one.
It was another good month of reading. I finished 2.5 books and read about 830 pages this month. I’m only slightly down from last month as I didn’t travel anywhere, so I didn’t have quite as much dedicated reading time. The 2 books I finished are Educated and This is Marketing.
