Style 608 Got A Makeover!

As you can see, style608.com got a design overhaul! I was contacted by Blogger to WordPress.com to get a blog makeover. I was, of course, very skeptical and asked about a million questions but Emily was such a trooper and was so sweet and patient with me that it made this whole experience so wonderful.

A little bit about Blogger to WordPress.com: they are an online course that helps new and established bloggers to improve their blogs. There is only so much you can learn on your own and even through weeks of back and forth emails, I was able to better navigate through my current blog, edit my photos properly and learn more about my platform. Blogger to WordPress also offers online videos and tutorials which are great. The continued support that they offer is beyond excellent. The response time while working with the team was wonderful.

The first step in this makeover was letting the team know what was a must for me. This is where we talked design, color, mood, logo etc. It only took a couple days for Blogger to WordPress to come back with a landing page mock-up. I loved it instantly but there were still a few customizations that I wanted to add in. We changed a few colors around, moved a few items, added this and took out that and BOOM! The new style608.com was born.

I should mention that I also switched my blog from WordPress to a self hosted site. I was recommended not only by WordPress but also Blogger to WordPress to move to SiteGround. The transition was seemless, the export and upload took only a few hours and they made it so easy. I have more freedom with my design, more freedom with plugins plus it’s way cheaper!

I hope you all enjoy! Please stick around, navigate, click and roam my site. I appreciate you all so much and thank you all for reading. Until next time,
