I'm guessing that you come across this fairly often when clients are selling their home, especially if they've lived there for a long time. I see it all the time...linoleum or vinyl...in the kitchen and/or other areas of the home. It's an eye sore and can inhibit the ability to sell a house - bo

So last month was an AWESOME month for my blog. I had a record high in pageviews (yes, 175,000 pageviews!) and record income. I couldn't believe it. I finally took the plunge to convert to https and to upgrade my hosting. I probably should have done this months ago. I was not happy with hosti

In February, I wrote an article how pinterest got me to page 1 for one of my articles. (You can read that full post here). Well believe it or not, it just happened again. And, this time I'm in the #1 spot on google! The article is "What are the best paint colors for dark hardwood floors). I j

I can't believe April is over. It was a great month for my blog. I actually got over 175,000 pageviews for the month with large growth in both organic and pinterest traffic. It was also a record month for blog income (I'll have to write about it separately...in a members only post). In April, I

Wow, it's hard to believe March has finished. There are rumors of a "chance of snow" for tomorrow, but I'm hoping these remain rumors. March was another good month, and I set a record high for passive income on my blog. And, Feb had been a record setting month as well. I'm hoping that this tre

Typically, my #1 article for the year is my flagship hardwood flooring trend post (which I publish annually). But, this year, I had a nice surprise...and article that surpassed all of my flooring articles. It's about painting. My #1 article by far shows the best interior paint colors for sellin

I can't believe it's March already...especially since we keep getting snow. Hopefully, it will melt away quickly. Today's storm doesn't look so bad here in New York. I hope it's the last one of the year. I miss you Spring and can't wait to reunite. So, here I am and it's almost the Ides of Ma

Sometimes, I feel like I'm so clueless on things. I guess no one ever taught me...or it never occurred to me. A few days ago, I wrote an article about the best steam mop for tile floors. In the process, I did some research on the benefits of using a steam mop and discovered that when you use a

Back in 2012, I wrote an article about tiles that look like hardwood. This was a bit after this type of flooring started to grow in popularity. Back then, there were only a few options that I could easily get my hands on, but I loved them. Since then, they have become so popular and ubitquito
