Planning my Next Tech Route

Techie Update

Website Hosting

I have been trying different hosting solutions in the past week. My three are

• Groove. cm

• Asure

• Namecheap.com

I was a Bluehost and WordPress person for 5-10 years and it became difficult to manage. I’m looking for ease of use in apps and websites.

After speaking to my husband, and an IT Infrastructure guy, he suggested I try Asure. It’s a strong business product from my first glance. He recommended it because of the reusability of the containers. My goal is to never migrate to another company.

I’ve been incredibly impressed by Namecheap.com. It’s been easy to use and it has a lot of quick tech support. Oh, and the prices are great. They have many types of software to upload to your website. My first try was Moodle an open-source tool for teaching in education, corporations, and non-profits. I like the simple design of the product.

On Groove.com, I created a free website with my free hosting plan. The software selection is limited to the free version. If you don’t plan on upgrading, you will be boxed in very soon with Groove.cm.

I am building websites on all three of these platforms so that I can test how each works and have first-hand knowledge of them. Yesterday, I got Moodle up really quickly and I started to create categories and class placeholders for online classes. Once I get the layout of the classes configured, I’ll be creating the content for the classes which will take some time.

Social media posting for business and fitness

In Social Media land, I was using Namecheap.com’s Relate. It was inexpensive and I could post to a few accounts at once, but after using Loomly for a week and a half I’ve found that they have more features and I can use it with more accounts. The price is a bit more, but the functionality could be worth it.

Moodle Website

I will be trialing my classes with literature, writing, and grammar. It’s quickest to start with videos I think and then supplement it with worksheets.

I find almost all people want to score very high on the SAT, and they want to know how exactly to do well on the “hardest part” the Critical Reading section. My advice is to read challenging texts and understand them.

There is nothing new under the sun, and testing well comes from a routine of study. I think there may be a few of these people in the world who value reading skills.

See You Soon!
