When I created my other new website, Alan Seeks A Boss, the website theme I used on that site was something that I really liked, but I used it in a way that was inconsistent with this site, Alan's Journey.
Today I got around to updating this site with the same theme. I've put the sidebar widgets into the footer instead of into the sidebar, and I've tidied up the contents so it looks much neater.
I removed the Facebook Likes widget, because no one was using it anyway. 50-60 unique visitors a day and no one liking it suggests to me that it's a waste of time having it around. So out it goes.
The end result is something that is still simple, which is one of my most important parameters, because simple is fast and the faster a site is, the better it is. But not only is it simple, it also looks good and is responsive, so it changes according to the size of the screen it's being viewed on.
It also looks unique and different to any of the other blogs out there, and that's important to me. I like to stand out from the rest of the blogs out there, presenting my own unique face to the world.
And finally, I updated the banner to look the same as what's on the Alan Seeks A Boss website. I think the avatar and the style of the font in the header lends itself to a brand style. My avatar is my brand, and so I'm using that across the different sites I have.
What do you think?
Looks good!
