Whoa! Something’s changed about RogerSimmons.com

Please Stand By
Please Stand By

If you’re a regular visitor to RogerSimmons.com, you may notice things are a little different. In a good news-bad news situation, traffic to RogerSimmons.com has been great — so great that the site was putting too much of a load on my Web host. I was told I needed to sign up for a somewhat expensive dedicated server for the site or make some changes. So … welcome to the changes.

For the Geeks out there who are interested, I’ve switched from Joomla to WordPress for the site’s content management system. WordPress is great, but I’m still figuring out how to get things to display the way I want. So, I ask for your patience as I get everything back up — please pardon missing images or any broken links you may come across.

We’ll be back to normal soon.
