- Why Did I Move From WordPress To Wix
A few weeks ago my blog went offline for 48HR and that was because I was in the progress of moving my blog from WordPress to Wix. To anyone who has moved a blog from one hosting site to another understands the long progress that it takes and will also know that it doesn't just happen overnight. When I started the progress of moving my blog over to Wix I had to remake my blog all over again what I loved doing becuse I could mess around a little bit before putting everything together and setting the blog live. Some people have asked me why did I leave WordPress and that's becuse to me I feel like their plans are a little overpriced and you don't really get much out of it also the layouts you get to pick from are all the same to a degree and you don't really get much freedom todo stuff to your blog. I'm not saying WordPress is all bad and everything becuse they, not there are a few things about WordPress that I like such as the plugins some of them are amazing and look awesome, you get an Auto-Spam scanner that runs in the background of your blog and site so you're blog isn't filled with spam comments. When I first come across Wix I didn't really understand how it all worked and it all seemed a little confusing to me and I thought it was only for people who had a business or an online store but as I found out it's also made for people like myself who have a blog and it was easier then I thought it was to make a blog in fact it's more fun becuse you get to add what you like, drag things wear you want you free to do whatever you want. Wix's price plans are much better priced than WordPress and you've got the choice to pay it monthly or yearly for the plans but please keep in mind you can only pay for a domain yearly. I've been asked if I'm glad that I moved to Wix and I'm so glad I did and I'd recommend Wix to anyone but please remember WordPress is still good so don't let my blog post set you off WordPress.
- My Goals For June 2021
Due to the U.K being in lockdown and everything not being how it normally is I've been running out of things to blog about but now that the U.K is continuing with its road maps "for now" I've managed to think of a few things to blog about. I thought I'd start it off with a list of my goals for June and see how far I get with them all. To Go Bowling With A Group Of Friends From Work I know this one may seem a little odd to have a goal but after the year we've had with COVID-19 it would be great to plan and book something and have some kind of normal-ish. Get My Blog Back On Track & Move The Old Blog Posts Over As most of you know from emails, blog update and social media I have moved to host sites and given my blog a new look. The reason why I did this was that I wasn't ever happy with how my blog looked. With this move, I'm currently trying to move my blog posts from my old blog to this blog my new. I was hoping this was going to be done by now but fingers crossed it will be done soon. Apart from all this, I've not really made any blog posts as I explained at the bigging of this blog post but I'm hoping to get that sorted and get back to work with it all. Compleat My Apprenticeship I'm not allowed to say too much about this but I'm currently doing an apprenticeship with the company I work for so I can higher up the ladder. To Get My Room Sorted At the moment I'm in the middle of sorting out my room and getting looking how I want it it's almost nearly done. Read More Books I'm one of those people who get given books as a gift or go out and buy them but never get around to reading them. I'm giving myself a small target of 3 books to read by the end of this month. Supporting More Small Businesses It's more important now than ever to support small businesses as some have had to close shop and move online or find it hard to keep their business going. I've supported a few small businesses in the face my blog logo was made from a small business and I can't wait for o support even more.
- Apple AirTag's
The new AirTags were announced at the 2021 Apple WWDC event at Apple Park and got released on the 20th April 2021. When the AirTags first got announced I watched the video about them and also checked out the Apple website so I could understand a bit more about them. At first, I wasn't sure about them but after a family member getting one and showing me how it works on the Find My network I wanted to get one. The AirTag's are amazing to keep things like your bag, wallet, keys and other items that may have an AirTags on safe. For example, if you lose your keys or someone takes them you can open up the Find My App on your iPhone and ping them to make a sound or use the find button to find them and track them down. How Do You Connect The Air Tag To Your iPhone Now, this is very easy as is most of the things that Apple make to connect to an iPhone like AirPods. You take off the paper wrapper from the Airtag put the Airtag next to your phone and then you'll see a pop up on your iPhone saying "connect AirTags" you then tap on connecting AirTags and then pick what the AirTags is for alongside an emoji it's as easy as that. How Does The Find My Work with The AirTag Work Just like connecting it to the iPhone the Find My part is also very easy as well. You open up the Find My app tap on items and then tap on whatever it is you're trying to find and track. You can then ask the tag to make a ping beeping sound or ask your iPhone to track the tag. Finding the tag is easy you tap on the "Find" button once you've tapped that you will then see this This will tell you where you need to go and how far away you are from your keys or the item you're trying to find and this is also how the Find My network works with the AirTags Apple also sale little AirTags keyrings that you will need to buy if you're putting the tag on an item.

- What Is Going On With The Blog
As some of you know I've not done a blog post for a few weeks and that will all be explained in this blog post and also give you all an update on what is going on with jackdeyes.com Everything on my blog is basically done I only have a few things left to do and with that all said I'm loving how my blog looks now than how it did on look WordPress. I feel like it's given jackdeyes.com a new fresh look and feel to the blog. I'm still going to maybe move a few things around and add some things but all in all, it's done. Apart from all of that some of you will know that I'm currently trying to move all the old blog posts over to this blog but unfortunately that isn't working out as easy as I thought. The team at Wix's have been spending hours from all different departments trying to get all the blog posts moved but sadly they haven't had much luck. After long phone calls with Wix's and emails going back and forth, it ended up being something to do with WordPress. Now if anyone has ever tried to contact WordPress support you'll know how difficult that can be some trying to get this sorted is being more of a pain than anything. Due to this, I've not been posting that many blog posts over the last few weeks becuse of all this moving blog post stuff and sadly I might end up losing the majority of the blog posts on WordPress. Besides that, I've also been getting some new tec things that I never planned on making a review on but well you'll see it in the next few weeks or so. Also, I'm getting some blog posts sorted so hopefully, you'll see a blog post up soon. Also if anyone knows how I can get the blog posts moved over from WordPress to Wix please let me know thanks :) I know this blog post isn't like my other blog posts but hopefully, this has given you all an idea of what is going on with jackdeyes.com
