I've made a lot of little changes to the Geek Mamas blog the past month, from little things like adding a blue background, to big things like a total SEO overhaul.

If you have a blog that links anywhere and care about your SEO and ranking, you need to be familiar with the terms nofollow, noopener and noreferrer, and how to use them.

Thrown Off Track by My Birthday
I was all caught up and chugging along with blog posts in a timely manner, and then my birthday crept up on me, along with a trip to see my mom and a stop at LEGOLAND and now here we are a week later with no new posts and a giant to-do list. Hard to … Continue reading Thrown Off Track by My Birthday
GeekMamas.com Finally Has a Real Newsletter
After three years of just using the built-in WordPress sign-up form, I finally sat down and created a MailChimp account and newsletter so I could send out neatly arranged summaries of everything that's going on over here at GeekMamas.com.
