A New Look For The Daily Grind!
It's been a year of status quo and The Daily Grind was super ready for a face-lift. At the recommendation of a trusted friend, I recruited web designer extraordinaire, Deanna (@domesticchicky) to help bring my vision to life. A stay-at-home-mom who moonlights as a creator of beautiful web designs, Deanna took my old design to this beauty in no time, with only a touch of guidance. The idea was to match The Daily Grind to its sister site, Alex Casey Baby and add some original touches here and there.
The Daily Grind is about to catapult to new levels. We now have several thousand visitors per month and the numbers are growing! What started as a weblog intended to be an outlet for my rants, raves, ideas, opinions and news (mostly read by family and friends) has really grown into a well-read blog! With a bunch of reviews and contests in the queue, we are getting serious.

It is said that moms spend over $2 trillion per year which clearly makes them the decision-makers when it comes to spending. Blog reviews are a smart, effective, quantifiable and INEXPENSIVE way to promote your store and/or product. Contests and giveaways are a sure bet to driving traffic to your site. This blog is also syndicated at The Kiddie Clique, so reviews get TWICE THE EXPOSURE.
Please let me know what you think of our new look either by commenting or email!
THANKS DEANNA!!
The site looks great! Good luck!
