today I created my personal website

alt

Hey! Every cool online content creator needs his own website for several reasons. A few of them are:

showcasing his creative work,
write blogs about recent creations,
to publish downloads for viewers,
to build a trademark / corporate identity
or just to feel more serious in this internet world.

For me all of those reasons fit so today I have created such a place.

Happy to see that tibfox.com was still free, I quickly registered that domain (for 15€/year) and set up a WordPress instance on digitalocean.com. Actually I installed OpenLiteSpeed WordPress 5.4.1 on Ubuntu 20.04 because a friend of mine recommended that.

Setup, configuration and all that has been very very simple and quick. This Website was built in around 30 Minutes including selecting the theme and configuring my social media handles and all that stuff.

Currently I am going to build my own corporate identity (if you can call it like that for an individual) and searching for someone who can draw a nice looking logo for me. But the first step is done: I got tibfox.com.

Now I am here, writing my first post without knowing where this site will lead in future and if I will ever become a bit more serious about my online presence. It could also be that this site is another little hobby which I'll forget within a few weeks. Who knows and it is also not really important.

It feels like in the late 90s where everyone had a page on myspace.com and a blog on wordpress.com but today: it's 2020 already. Note to myself: don't mind the flying time. That's normal, you get older every minute and that's fine. Everyone gets older every minute and you don't need to panic here.

I am a huge fan of the hive blockchain and because of that I immediately installed SteemPress on my WordPress installation, entered all my account data and now I am writing this post to test the automatic publication while feeling serious about my website. If the resulting hive post looks good on my blog there works well then I will have a very good reason to post here more frequently so *fingers crossed*!

If you read this on hive, it worked & if the formatting looks good, SteemPress did a great job! If you also have a WordPress blog and copy&paste your stuff always through the internet, give SteemPress a try! Easy installation and setup and hopefully a good resulting hive post.

Thanks for your time to read that far and all of your engagement in the comments!

Love ya, Tibfox
