Feel free to look around and explore! With the 500+ posts that were moved over, I have spent many hours reformatting all the texts and altering all the links. And you will find all 9000+ comments have made the move safely! In addition, I’ve implemented a lot of changes with the drop down menus (I love me some organization!)
I thought it would be fun to celebrate this momentous move with a TRIPLE GIVEAWAY!!! I appreciate all of you for following me through this move and I apologize for any inconvenience!
GIVEAWAY TIME!!!
I thought it would be fun to do a giveaway based on three different types of novels I often read and review: Austen-Inspired Originals, Sequels, and Variations! To be entered to win one of these lovely prizes, please leave a comment below and fill out the rafflecopter form!
- This giveaway is open to residents worldwide!
- This giveaway will end July 15th.
*If you have any questions about the blog move, I’d be happy to answer them! Many factors came into this decision like the terrible spam comments I kept getting on Blogger, wanting a site that had more customization and organization options, and wanting to shorten my url to AustenesqueReviews.com.
It looks really good!! Great job to all involved.
Thank you, Carol! Angie is the designer behind it all! 🙂
Looks good! Congrats on getting it up and running!
Thank you, Leslie! I’m so excited to finally make the move official! It has been kept secret for so many weeks!
Congrats on a successful move! It looks great – always nice when you can customize to get what you want.
Good fortune to you here (without the spam trolls) –
Thank you, Tess! I’m so happy to move away from the spam trolls! They were getting a little too comfortable in my old blog!! 😉
Love the new site! Great job Meredith 🙂
Thank you for coming by and checking it out, Shannon!
Congrats on the big move! It looks great. And you’ll definitely get less spam. 😉
Thanks, Abigail! It felt so good to turn off comments on the old blog and not worry about readers catching any that I missed!

Congratulations on your new site! Things look great and I’m sure it won’t take long for it to feel just like home.
I’m looking forward to commenting on your lovely site from my iPhone, which was always impossibility on the blogger site for some odd reason. But this works a whole lot better for me, so thanks 😉
Thank you, Heather! That’s awesome that this site is easier for you to comment on your iphone! I didn’t know that blogger had issues with that! Another perk for WP! 🙂

Thank you, Kara! So far, things are going smoothly… 🙂 LOL! I’m guess you already have a copy of Only Mr. Darcy Will Do?!? 😀
The new site looks wonderful, Meredith!!! I love how you’ve got it set up, although I do miss that beautiful purply-blue background… but the pink works too!! 😉 LOL I love the wedding photo you posted… just beautiful!! Congratulations on the new site & as always, thank you for everything you do for all of us Austenesque fans!! And…. thank you, too, for the giveaway!!

Happy Moving Day! Amazing you could move everything including the comments. Job well done
Thank you, Jennifer! I don’t think I would have made the move if it meant I’d loose all my comments or lose my posts!
Congrats on the move,Meredith! Hope you don’t have too many boxes to unpack:)
I tell ya, so many boxes! You never how much you have until you have to move it! LOL! 🙂
Looks good, lady! It sounds like it was a LOT of work to move everything over but I hope you will like it (and I guess I’ll have to stop spamming you now – lol 😛 )
LOL! Monica! Quit spamming! I’m already very satisfied and happy I made the move! Hopefully things will continue to run smoothly!
Hooray! Sometimes change is good. No spam is also an enviable improvement. I’ve recently enjoyed the wonders of the Austen Admirers App, and I’m glad you have taken the opportunity to be a part of it.
Thank you, Amanda! Yes I’m excited about the new look and learning the new format! I’m so glad you are enjoying the Austen Admirers App! It’s a great resource! 🙂
Welcome home, sorta….What you read and the reviews you publish are spot-on. Here’s hoping you have a ‘traffic jam’ on the new website! Always like to participate in a generous give-away….
