Shout Out

Dividends Diversify is picking up steam heading into the new year.  With that said, I want to do a shout out to all of you who have jumped on board and have been contributors on the site since it’s inception in September 2017.

THANK YOU!

Thanks to all of you for your comments, suggestions and support.  The personal finance, investing, dividend stock and financial independence community is a great one.

SHOUT OUT CRITERIA

My criteria for preparing this list was anyone who has left one or more comments on Dividends Diversify.  The sites are listed in order of most contributions to fewest.  I’m not trying to leave anyone out or hurt any feelings, so I used that objective criteria to prepare and rank the list.  Thanks to ALL of my readers for a great 2017 and success to all of us in 2018.

GREAT BLOGS TO CHECK OUT…

With that said, here are some great sites to check out when you aren’t spending your time reading Dividends Diversify.

I also want to mention Cynthia, Iwona and Steveark.  You don’t have to have a blog to be a valued contributor!

  4. Thanks for the shout-out, Tom – greatly appreciated!

    Your site continues to keep the community intrigued, so thanks for continuing to share your thoughts.

    A blog roll is a really useful idea as well; I’m seeing it on other sites and it is great to easily be able to find helpful content.

    Meant to ask as well – how do you like the magazine pro theme? I’m just on the sample Genesis framework from studio press, but I’m looking around at other genesis-based themes.

    Thanks again.

      • Hi Mike,
        You are welcome! Interesting that you mention a blog roll. I do have a good reads page that highlights 5 sites I’m reading that I update and change periodically. It’s actually due for an update. One of my goals for 2018 is to have a more expansive blog roll too. More to come on that.

        Regarding the news pro theme. I do like it, however it didn’t turn out as I envisioned it and how studio press demos it. My vision for the site was sort of a personal finance and investing newsletter. When I started customizing the site I was just lost and clueless since I had never done it before. I also wanted 2 sidebars, one on each side, and I don’t think you can use the traditional “news pro look” and have 2 sidebars. So I ended up with what I think is a very traditional looking blog, which is okay. Primarily, I wanted a nice clean professional but colorful looking site with easy navigation and I think I accomplished those things with news pro. I looked closely at magazine pro. In fact I think I started with mag pro and then switched to news pro. They are very similar.

        Thanks for your contributions and comments Mike.

        • Hi Tom – to follow-up re: the site themes, yesterday I purchased StudioPress’ Smart Passive Income Pro Theme. Not only is the name fitting, I spent a lot of time looking around for what you highlighted: a nice clean professional but colorful looking site with easy navigation.

          I’m still messing around with the site, but it has some nice out of the box features, still runs on the Genesis framework, and has a few more customized options (at least vs. the basic Genesis template I first used when I launched the site back in August)..
          – Mike

  6. Hi Tom,

    Thought I was being a bit obnoxious at times, leaving too many comments on you blog 🙂 But I only did that because commenting on your blog felt like I’m chatting with a good friend who would always respond to me in a kind way, even when I go and buy Tesla stock.

    While I value your insights and wisdom, I also value you as a friend, you have always been very kind, humble, and supportive to me and other bloggers.

    I enjoy your writing style very much, it’s warm and welcoming while still providing useful insights and overview of what is going on with stocks and market. Kind’a like CNBC’s Nightly Business News with Sue Herera and Tyler Mathisen 🙂

    Thank you for the shout-out Tom and being my friend.

    • Gosh Mr. ATM. Your comments have never been anything but welcome. I look forward to them every week. If it were not for you and all the other fine folks on this list, I would have probably thrown in the blogging towel by now. And it is an honor to be mentioned in the same breadth as Sue and Tyler. Maybe I could land a high paying media gig like them if you were my agent? Not sure. Anyway, thanks for the kind words. I can’t have too many friends like you. It’s not like they spit them out at my banks ATM machine! 🙂 Tom

    • You are welcome Mr. Geek. I’m not familiar with feedly, I will have to investigate it. Thanks for connecting with me on Pinterest recently. That’s a platform I have invested a lot of time in to try and figure out and…I’m still trying. Glad you are enjoying my site. Thanks for contributing. Talk soon. Tom

  9. Thank you for the mention! Happy 2017- here’s to an even better 2018 (and that can mean market slump or high, both will be fine with me). Keep up the great work here!
