• New Site Launch & WhatsKickin/LetterHappy GIVEAWAY

    Nov 2

    Well, most of the changes have been made and you are looking at the new and (hopefully) improved EasternShoreMom.com! There are some fun and exciting changes and features that I will list below so you know exactly how everything works:

    1. Navigation Bar- affectionately known as the “navbar” this new look and user-friendly layout should help you navigate through ESM easily. Click through the tabs and notice that a “Calendar of Events” will be added to the site soon and also a whole “Getting Started” section to get you familiar with the website, couponing, and more.  Some of the pages are still under construction due to my busy schedule lately but I am hoping to have everything up this weekend.
    2. Comments- There are a ton of new features with this site when it comes to comments. Now you can choose a gravatar to represent you next to your comment & if you have your own website, you can use “commentluv” to show the latest post on your site and show other ESM readers your pride&joy! You can also now “Like This” below any post- meaning if you don’t have time/want to write a comment, just click the heart below the post to show others that you like it!
    3. NEW Button- If you have “grabbed” the ESM button before you are going to want to be sure to grab the new one. Not only does the one before take you to the old site, but it doesn’t FLASH like this one does! That’s right- it flashes two different scenes on the logo! “A Jubilee Of Deals” on one side and “EasternShoreMom.com” on the other!
    4. Catch Up On The Deals- This sidebar element I have added to assist you when you first sign on to the site to see what exactly I have posted in the last 5 posts. It keeps you up-to-date with the deals without having to dig through the site.
    5. ESM on IPhone- The new site look is completely compatible with your IPhone or internet-enabled mobile phone. If you already have EasternShoreMom saved on your IPhone apps home page be sure to switch it to the new EasternShoreMom.com- it could be directing you to the old page.
    6. Get ESM into your Email Inbox- When we switched over, we lost all of our email subscribers due to technical difficulties :(. Be sure to resign up real quick with this form below to get the daily email update.
    Enter your email address:

    Delivered by FeedBurner

    I am also working on a very special surprise for you guys- hopefully everything will work out with this really cool feature because you have been asking for it! I hope I can deliver it to you all very soon but right now it’s in the works ;)

    Now on to the GIVEAWAY!

    I decided to save this GIVEAWAY as a premiere to the new site opening. I am so thrilled to have such a great giveaway item(s) and also to support this business because she is a local girl & we’re all about stimulating our local economy! Be sure to enter her giveaway and check out both of her Etsy shops. Ok, ok, no more waiting, here are the details straight from Christen at WhatsKickin & LetterHappy!

    Hi there, Eastern Shore Mom readers!

    My name is Christen Strang, I’m a local graphic designer from Mobile, Alabama, and I’m so happy to be hosting this giveaway! Aubrey contacted me about putting together a sort of “pregnancy package”, so that’s exactly what I’ve done. I run two shops on Etsy.com and I’m offering a freebie from each to one lucky reader!

    First, from my maternity shirt shop (whatskickin.etsy.com): a wonderfully soft, fitted maternity tee with the official “what’s kickin?” logo. Color availability will vary by size.

    Second, from my art shop (letterhappy.etsy.com): one 8×8 baby illustration art print. “My Blankie” is shown in blue, but you can choose any of the four prints from this series in either blue, pink, or a custom color!

    As a bonus, I’d like to extend a 10% discount on your total purchase at both of my shops. For those of you not familiar with Etsy, when you go to checkout, there will be a “message to seller” box. Simply enter “ESM10” as your discount code, continue to pay through PayPal, and your 10% will be refunded back to you the same day.

    I’d like to thank Aubrey for giving me this opportunity to showcase my shops! Good luck to each and every one of you that enters!

    This is such a great giveaway package- for yourself or as a gift!
    One of my lucky readers will receive….

    whatskickin

    {CLOSED}

      We had been reading something else regarding this on an additional weblog. Interesting. Your own linear perspective on this is diametrically opposed to what We read earlier. I’m nevertheless contemplating more the reverse points of view, but I’m inclined heavily toward your own own. And no matter, that’s what is therefore super about contemporary democracy and the actual industry associated with ideas on-line.

      Howdy, i study your weblog occasionally and i own a comparable one and i had been just wondering should you get a lot of spam comments? If so how do you avoid it, any plugin or anything you can advise? I get so much recently it’s driving me mad so any assistance is very much appreciated.

      You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

    • http://mkmusiconline.com/?p=56 Sonic Producer review

      lol a couple of the reviews bloggers write are silly and unrelated, there are times i wonder whether they at all read the post before writing or whether they just look at the subject of the blog post and compose the very first thought that drifts to their minds. But it is great to see a intelligent commentary every now and then in contrast to the exact same, traditional blog bull which I too many times notice on the blogs. Regards

      I was wondering if you ever considered changing the layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?

      Ha ha… I was just browsing around and took a glance at these responses. I can’t believe there’s still this much attention. Thanks for writing about this.

      Superb read! I have one advice for your weblog. It appears like there are a few style sheet troubles when opening several web pages in google chrome and firefox. It is working fine in internet explorer. Maybe you could double check that. I’ve just bookmarked this post on digg.com to get some more readers to your web page.
