Phreshly-Squeezed.net

If you have seen this webpage before, you’ll notice that a lot has changed. I’ve rid myself of many of all my past entries and of my layout. Reverting to a simple template that I’m gradually tweaking, I have yet to figure out what it is I want to use this for.

But why get rid of everything?

Well, this past summer I have been working in an office (aside from working my food and beverage jobs) where I first redesigned logos to developing and designing websites. But of course, it’s not all fun and games where I can simply slap some codes together and pray for Google’s bots to crawl onto the webpage. I wound up having to do intensive research on the topic of search engine optimization to hopefully generate more hits for the company. What I wound up realizing was that I was going about my way of SEO (search engine optimization) all wrong - in fact, I hadn’t even heard of the term until this summer!

Scratching my whole webpage, I’ve decided to make this one more efficient and run everything from Wordpress. However, I haven’t scrapped the domain name because age of a domain also plays in as a factor for being searched - I’ll worry about that later. Getting hits isn’t all that important to me, it has just been irking me that I could’ve been doing this (which I can’t even define myself) a more efficient way.

Aside from website related things, I have started university at New York University. I’m on a first year exchange and living in Paris, France. It’s a pretty interesting experience given that there’s incredibly few people in our program - it’s basically gifted program version 2.0 with some quirks. With regards to the city, Paris is incredibly different from Toronto. I can’t pick out one thing at this moment to discuss, but there are plenty of ways in which the cities differ.
