Resources
I have started a resource page to share with you some of the different services I use and recommend for my blog.
This page contains affiliate links. I earn a small commission when you purchase through one of these links at no additional cost to you. I only recommend products that I love and use myself.
Business Tools

Affordable and reliable, Bluehost is my hosting provider. You can install WordPress with one-click and receive FREE domain name registration, a FREE SSL certificate, and 24/7 support.
Feel overwhelmed with the technical side of blogging? Don’t let that stop you from pursuing your goals.
Just recently, Bluehost added a FREE service for all new Bluehost customers called Blue Spark. This service will help guide you through the process of building your website. To access, simply purchase Bluehost through my link and contact the Blue Crew team at 877-741-1192 and ask about the Blue Spark Service.
Tailwind
Tailwind is the best investment I’ve made to grow my blog traffic. I schedule my pins in bulk over a two-week period of time so I am always active on Pinterest, regardless of my busy schedule. Tailwind optimizes my pinning schedule by identifying times that my audience is most active on Pinterest, allowing my pins to be seen and shared by more people. Start your FREE trial today!
Travel
HomeAway
For the past seven years, HomeAway has helped my family find the perfect vacation rental. I simply use the search engine to put in our arrival and departure dates, number of guests (including pets), and location. If I don’t know the exact dates or location, I can do a search of a general area and check the box stating that I don’t know my exact dates at this time. Using the search filter, I identify that I’m also looking for homes that are on the beach, have a private pool, 5-6 bedrooms, 4-5 bathrooms, and an elevator. If HomeAway can find my family the perfect vacation rental, I’m confident they can find one for your family too!
