Top blog posts of 2018
One of the things I promised my self at the start of 2018 was to spend more time on my blog creating content.The initial idea was to create four posts a month and include in each post a Pinterest Image made on Canva.Did I achieve this goal? YES I totally did and some weeks I was more creative and blog twice even thrice depending on work and collaborations.
Then in June/July was an awful few weeks for the blog as my blog was hacked.A virus was inserted into my theme.This meant images got corrupted and needed to be redone.But most importantly it meant losing out on paid work and visitors to the site.But to my rescue a web genius/fairy Sim from Niyash solved my dramas She was able to save all my content and some images and to secure my site.I am ever so grateful to her.Sim also designed my site and gave it a fresh look so if you looking for any web design or assistant do contact her and mention that the SpiceGoddess sent you.
Every year I love looking at the data on the blog to find out which are the most popular posts for that specific year.Often I am surprised as some of my older posts still rank in the Top 10 most read blog posts.
