It has been two years since I started this website. Now, that’s a first! If you knew for some time, then you know I used to have this habit of closing my website after a year because I grew tired of the domain name. With Soularte.com, I grew really fond of it. Not to mention, I have solidified a connection between me and the name amongst certain communities in Seattle. So, parting with it may cause some confusion to some people I have established a network with.

Anyway… Happy birthday, “baby”!

Sidenote: I was planning on creating a free “Go Pink!” theme for Wordpress blogs, but in the middle of doing so I got discouraged. Instead, I will be creating free wallpapers. I will have them up sometime this week. Hopefully… *crosses fingers*

    Happy Birthday Soularte!!! I can understand about changing domains after a year. I’m also the same way but when I got Herstori I never got sick of it yet.

    My site will be two on December 5th. Since my brother got it for me as a early birthday gift and don’t expire until 2011 .. I will be keeping that domain for a long time. The domain really have a meaning to it.

    I can’t wait to see your wallpapers.

    Congratulations on the birthday of your domain! So, what are your current plans about it then? Are you going to keep it for more years or will you grow tired of it?

    Thank you! I’ve added you to my blogroll, too. I still can’t believe it’s been 2 years now. Hehe.

    @ a.simone*

    Before I bought “Soularte.com”, I was going to use my name. But at the time I wasn’t sure if I wanted a personal site versus a portfolio. I don’t regret choosing my domain, though. I’m sure you’ll reach the 2-year mark, too!

  11. riza Says:

    @ penita

    Wow, 2011?! That’s a long ways from now. But with a domain like “herstori” I can see why you want to keep it.

    Btw, I tried visiting your site but I kept getting a blank page. Then all of a sudden I got a “banned” message. LOL.

    @ Kenneth

    Thank you! I’m planning on turning this site into an art portfolio, too. It’s just taking me awhile to organize it. I’m a bit attached to the domain name, so I’m definitely keeping it!! =)

    @ Donna

    I will definitely be hear if you have any questions. I know that Wordpress takes a bit to get used to especially with the template tags.

    @ saha

    Thank you! I do have a vox, but I’m not active on it like I used to. I guess it’s because I’m blogging more on here than there. My username is “nakedcanvas”.

    @ riza

    I didn’t know my brother got the domain for me that long until he told me. But I am happy that he did got it that long. Now I don’t have to worry about renewing it every year.

    It should be working now. I was working on my site all yesterday and mess up my whole wordpress.

    I no longer see the banned message, but I see a blank page? o_O
