What’s New? The FPPad Refresh

Notice anything different? Visitors to the FPPad.com website should notice a few changes that were rolled out this weekend. So what’s new?

Updated Design

We added a new WordPress theme from WooThemes to refresh the look of the website. The left-hand sidebar is now on the right, placing the content immediately to the left. Behind the scenes, we have better overall management of the content posted here, including better use of menu navigation, sidebar widgets, and user experience.

New E-Newsletter Service

A new item in the right-hand sidebar is a box to sign up for the new FPPad E-Newsletter. Until now, we used FeedBurner to provide e-mail and RSS subscription options to new FPPad posts. FeedBurner works fine, but it doesn’t allow us to distribute a targeted monthly newsletter or deliver exclusive offers to our subscribers.

So please take 10 seconds to enter your name and e-mail to subscribe to our new E-Newsletter. As a thank you for completing the subscription process, we’re offering a free download of our eBook titled 7 Essential Tips For The Productive Advisor. Get seven of our best tips in eighteen pages with over twenty technology resources.

If you subscribed by e-mail to FeedBurner, you will want to unsubscribe from that feed to avoid receiving duplicate e-mails for new blog content (the unsubscribe link is at the bottom of FeedBurner e-mails).

Better Search

There’s a new menu item to search FPPad archives. The old search would show only the titles of posts matching the search results, but not the body of the post showing what matched. We now added Google Search for FPPad that yields better results when you search for words and phrases used on our site.

Welcome!

So welcome to the new and improved site! We hope you enjoy what FPPad has to offer.

Should FPPad Distribute a Monthly E-newsletter?

Engaging our subscribers and audience is important. So we want to make the effort to deliver content in ways that suit your preferences.

This post from Susan Weiner got us thinking. Today you can subscribe to the FPPad RSS feed or receive updates via email. But we currently do not produce a monthly e-newsletter.

So let’s ask the readers. Please use the simple poll below to say whether or not you want to see an e-newsletter for FPPad in the near future. (Click this link if you can’t see the poll in your RSS feed or email)
