RE: SteemPress answers to common questions and update to design

Vornix. It is not a real domain, nor a suitable place to replace your wordpress.com.

It is only a subdomain. That at present, it does not even have HTTPS. Something absolutely ridiculous.

With your thought. You go from bad to worse.

Sort:  

With respect, @rosepac, that's a matter of opinion. Read again and you will see that I qualified what I said, based on my lack of skills and the type of platform I was looking for. I found one that was fit for my purpose, i.e. WordPress.

Similarly, I have not said that I intend relinquishing or replacing my WordPress blogs – I simply said that it could be done. In any event that would be rash decision in the short term, especially as I've not thought through their futures in relation to what they carry, i.e. the purposes they serve for me, and in relation to what WordPress offers which, I say again, for my purposes are value for money. Again, as someone not familiar with coding and much, much more interested in writing and, to some, pretty pictures, the WordPress platform is really user-friendly and suits my purposes.

Incidentally, in just under a year on @steemit and only the last few months of any real activity, I have built a following and a reputation it took me three years to build on my WordPress personal blog. I say again: from the perspective of ease and speed of posting (i.e. time), the platform is far superior to the Steemit editor.

Yes, I have understood this.

And I seemed to understand that you said that "vornix" It was a better option of the wordpress (wordpress.com?) that you had before.

Only said you; that is not an option, nor an improvement. Don´t have HTTPS and it. Is to be dead in the eyes of google and any other search engine.

That can be horrible for you and your blog.

It does not require great knowledge to create your wordpress. None of programming.
In fact any server that allows to install wordpress.org with Softaculous.
It gives you a wordpress password, just as gave it "vornix"; after paying them and making three clicks.

Much better spend your money on buying a domain.

-Sorry for my english-.

Appreciate your reply - and your English is 100% better than my Spanish. Your points about HTTPS is well made, and why I will hang on to the other blog, and probably run the two in parallel. The two communities are quite different. The second, I use as a website and am considering collapsing that entire business into another and on to that website which is on G-Suite.

Thanks again, I appreciate your considered reply.
