    Hi there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
    I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but
    I’m having a hard time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most
    blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
    P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

      Hiya,
      I am using WordPress, with the Spacious theme for WordPress, by ThemeGrill. This allows you to use up the whole screen area – it is also responsive, which means it adjusts the displayed content to the screen size on the device being used. This saves a LOT of trouble in setting up the site.
      You can use a plugin like WooCommerce to run an e-commerce site. Getting into B2evolution and Drupal is a huge amount of work for someone wanting to set up a new site. I haven’t used Woocommerce myself, but I have read a lot of posts by people who have(!). It seems pretty configurable and usable for newbies. I’m a software engineer and I believe in never reinventing the wheel unless you really have to. I used to code my own site, but WordPress is just *so* much less site management, coding etc. You can always add some CSS to make your site unique, even with a WordPress theme … 🙂

      Cheers,
      Susan
