Hello! I could have sworn I’ve been to this site before but after reading through some of
the post I realized it’s new to me. Anyhow, I’m definitely glad I
found it and I’ll be book-marking and checking back frequently!
Here is my site; https://verzeichnis-von-websites.de/
My programmer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on various websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
I have heard very good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer
all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be greatly
appreciated!

I can’t join it. Is there anyone else having the same RSS problems?
Anyone that knows the solution will you kindly respond?
Thanks!!
I think everything published made a ton of
sense. However, what about this? what if you
added a little content? I am not saying your
content is not solid., however what if you added something to maybe grab folk’s attention? I mean Western/Prairie Rattlesnake – Daniel’s Animals is kinda plain. You ought
to glance at Yahoo’s front page and see how they write article headlines to grab viewers to open the links.
You might add a related video or a picture or two to grab readers interested about everything’ve written. Just my opinion, it would bring your website a little livelier.
What a information of un-ambiguity and preserveness of precious familiarity about unexpected feelings.
