So I asked my friends at [Kinopicz American](http://kinopicz.com) to help me take it apart and start from scratch. 1. **More about what I do**. For a long time I used this blog as my main site while using another domain and site for my speaking, consulting, and coaching. I am consolidating everything here to make it easier to share what I do. This has always been my home base, and I am more convinced that this is the right strategy. 2. **Added menus**. Not the menus you see across the top of the page. I added menus of my keynotes and workshops. I have a number of different [keynote speeches](http://thesalesblog.com/speaking/#keynotes) and as many [workshops](http://thesalesblog.com/speaking/#workshops). We created a page and a summary for each keynote and each workshop to provide some ideas about the outcomes you can expect from me as a speaker. 3. **Content up front**. Even though the home page looks more like a home page, I didn’t want to move content to another page. I left the daily post as the primary piece of content on the home page because I believe that’s what belongs up front. This has served me well for a long time. 4. **Hard coded out comments**. I’m not sure what changed with WordPress and Akismet, but for the last year my site was literally overrun with spam comments. I believe the more traffic your site generates, the more spam you attract. I moved to the Facbook plugin, but some spam still crept onto posts. You can still [email me](mailto:iannarino@gmail.com), comment on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/thesalesblog), or connect with me on any other social site. 5. **Bigger fonts and mobile responsive**. I had no idea how many people read my blog on their smartphone or tablet. Sometimes that number is greater than 60%. Small fonts didn’t work for those readers, and I heard this from many of them. The pinching and zooming and scrolling back and forth didn’t work either. So this is site is now completely mobile responsive.   ###### Tags: [Sales](https://www.thesalesblog.com/blog/tag/sales) [2015](https://www.thesalesblog.com/blog/tag/2015) Post by [Anthony Iannarino](https://www.thesalesblog.com/blog/author/anthony-iannarino) on January 15, 2015 Written and edited by human brains and human hands. ![Anthony Iannarino](https://www.thesalesblog.com/hubfs/ai-blog-profile-crop.jpg) Anthony Iannarino is an American writer.
