Hat Tips All Around

I love my ad squares, really.

They don’t generate much money. They aren’t in your face. They aren’t flash.

The are, however, products I use (or would use under the proper circumstances). Products I would recommend to anyone, and are all flat out awesome.

I wanted to take the time to give a little hat tip to all of them for making my life easier.

First off, there’s Cloudberry. It’s the only program I reach for when I need to do anything big with S3. It’s awesome, fast, and a billion times more flexible than the AWS console.

Clover is a great platform that I haven’t used. If you want to build a website quick and for a great price – they can help. Their target audiences are churches, but I’m sure you could use it for personal stuff too.

The last 2 squares, help me on a daily basis, and I love them both dearly.

Sendgrid and Standard Theme.

Sendgrid is my SMTP relay. I love them because they let me send email from within EC2 – for free! I love the price point. Free gets me 200 outbound messages per day. I don’t need more than that.

Lastly, Standard Theme…is awesome. It’s a theme that I’ve used multiple times and never had a bad experience with – ever. It’s also the theme that powers An Altered Reality. I’d really suggest you invest in it! It’s an awesome theme, an awesome framework, and can do awesome things for your blog.
