As you are aware the month of August had been the month to revamp my blog or”pimp my blog” the look of your blog by changing the template, there are many reason for doing this and generally it comes down to professionalism and readability of the blog to the viewers.
Three major bloggers changed their templates namely, Problogger, JohnChow and Calocab. There reasoning can be explained below:
Problogger had his reasons of the change to a new blog face lift, he quoted that “I always find a fresh coat of paint can really lift a room, a haircut can improve a mood and a blog redesign can get the creative juices flowing again.“
Johnchow is all about making money online and if you are serious in making money online then you would be interesting in why he also did a makeover “The old theme was stuck at $12,500 a month and I wasn’t going to break out of that unless I do a redesign. This is all part of the make money online process. I didn’t do a redesign for the sake of a redesign.”
Carlocab changed his blog design without announcing it to the crowd but i believe most of his readers catch his intention of bringing a better and refreshing look from his older skin.
So with the increasing number of blog / websites appearing daily on the web, and with many people blogging about the same niches, Presentation and readability of the blog becomes important to defining the difference between bloggers. Therefore we know blog design does make a huge difference and not just content alone.
Visitors are not just looking at simple content which many time is repeated but are looking for the value added website which allows them to interact with , whether its finding.
So why did I change my Blog design?
Well for me I found using B2evolution very difficult to make my site reader friendly and found a lack of good plugins to add to my site hard to find. Now with using Wordpress I am able to enhance my site and make every ones visit enjoyable.
My site is not 100% ready I have yet to add my other pages but I will be adding them slowly over the next few weeks. If you find any bugs or recommend any good plugins kindly leave me a comment or two.
Or maybe just leave me a few words of encouragement as I continue to endeavor to bring you quality content.
I would like to finish by thanking Etienne Teo for allowing me to use some of this content, and stay turned as he is currently revamping this blog design too, i seen a early version and its looking good.

Looks nice and clean. I really like the “buy me some oxygen” thing. I admit I don’t know if that is new, but it is cool (I don’t drink and would feel odd asking for a beer).
