I. Have. An. Announcement.

Dear Readers,

I have an announcement for you.  A big one.

I wanted to let you know, that after reading the best Web Hosting Hub review I ever read that, this blog is moving from Blogger to self-hosted WordPress. That’s right.

In the course of moving, this blog may or may not be available for a couple of days. But it will be right back on Sunday, Dec 2, 2012 with a whole new look. I thought, when I am moving platforms and getting on a different train, why not have a makeover as well?

In the process of moving, the posts here will revert to the old url, and you can access them here at http://google-n-i-share-a-birthday.blogspot.com and from Sunday, we’ll be back together on https://www.vidyasury.com.

This is a good time for me to once again thank you all for being with me – and I sincerely hope you will continue to visit and show me the love I deeply cherish.  With this in mind, I humbly request you to please subscribe here to receive updates in your mailbox. Click this link to subscribe:  

This is a MailChimp form where you just have to enter your name, email and website URL – And of course, please rest assured that I will guard your email address with my life. Your current subscription may no longer be active since I am consolidating the Feedburner feeds into the MailChimp newsletter.

Why now?

Actually I’ve been considering this for a while now. And then, I saw my friend Vanita Cyril of After Bedtime Blog offering an amazing package here:  Exclusive Going Pro-Blogger Sale and I grabbed it. I don’t believe in delaying a good deed – and as synchronicity would have it – she also happened to have a slot to fit me in. So I said “Ganesha” and am very excited about this.  In case you are curious and have been contemplating moving your blog from Blogger to WordPress, here’s what she’s offering for a limited time:

• Move up to 300 posts from Blogger to WordPress – Includes redirection of old site to new site, wordpress installation and configuration on host server. You must have had your own domain name for at least a month before moving.
• Bonus! WP + SEO Training 1 year free access to the WordPress + SEO Training Site on TheStrategicMama.com. Video training from Basics to Intermediate WordPress and Traffic Boosting Training, Keyword research and Google Search Results Competition Analysis Training.
• Bonus! A Premade Theme Installed and Configured onto your WordPress site From Elegant Themes or a Theme you purchase
• Optional Bonus 6 months of Free Hosting For One Website

…..All this at a ridiculously low price. Go check it out here. But it is really not about the money. What matters to me is that Vanita is reliable, knowledgeable and honest. She is genuinely supportive.  If you remember, I’ve informed you about her promotional offers a couple of times here – and was thrilled to receive emails from people who are very happy with her service. I am happy I recommended her.  So – rather logical that I would approach her to move my blog for me, right? Right.

So – may I wish you all a wonderful weekend and also request you once again, to please subscribe at this link?

Thank you, again.

Ah, one more thing: I am over at Barbara Klein’s place today at Late-Bloomers.net. Barbara’s blog is a wonderful place with fabulous posts, photography and great conversation. She has started a brand new series called “Your Turn!” and mine is the first post in the series. Can you imagine how excited I am? Please drop by – the post is all about food 🙂

Thank you for subscribing to my blog! Do consider leaving a comment – or just reply to this email! I’d love to know what you think.

Cheers!
