Hi there! I've recently taken more of an interest in Hellenism, but I don't at all know where to start. I've never really been religious before, only really knowing the basics of Christianity. I did see you created a post of advice for beginner Hellenists, but I was wondering, if it's not too much trouble, if you had any additional information for someone like me who's just starting out.

Hello anon! Sorry for how long it took to write this up, I definitely went a little bit wild on this one :)

First off, welcome to Hellenic Polytheism! It's definitely a wild ride, but depending on what sect of Christianity you come from, it's not completely and totally foreign.

Starting off with a list of some websites, general resources, and accounts that I have found helpful:

theoi.com

Apostolos Athanassakis translations of the Orphic and Homeric Hymns

Hellenic Polytheism: Household Worship by Labrys

Hellenion.org

@khaire-traveler's Subtle Worship Master List

@thegrapeandthefig's Wordpress

And now breaking them all down, because I love when people justify their choices to me :)

theoi.com The nice thing about this website is that it's about as much information about the Gods as you can possibly want in one place. Not only does it seemingly have just about every possible deity in the Greek pantheon, but it has an incredibly good collection of historical references, family trees, and even artwork from ancient Greece.

Apostolos Athanassakis translations While theoi.com is good, I'm not the biggest fan of the version of the translations that they use for the Orphic and Homeric Hymns - they're a bit too "translated" for me. This meaning that the translations in question don't sit too close to the original text, and in my opinion, if you're trying to understand a deity through some ancient work, you want to get the closest translation to the original, even if that means sacrificing some of the flowery language. And Athanassakis' translations are some of my favorite for those "close translation" hymns. You can find his work on the Internet Archives.

Hellenic Polytheism: Household Worship I think this is one of those staples that every Hellenic Polytheist should take a look at at least once. It's pretty dry, but within it, there are plenty of rituals and general information on Hellenism as a religion. I don't use most of the rituals in it, but even still, I keep a copy on hand for the future when I'm able to practice more freely.

Hellenion.org This is a pretty good resource for more modern Hellenic Polytheist prayers, as well as rituals. This is a more heavy reconstructionist lean (which focuses on an accurate recreation of Hellenic Polytheism, as opposed to revivalism, which focuses on recreating it for the modern day), but still incredibly helpful, and a bit easier to understand than Hellenic Polytheism: Household Worship.

@khaire-traveler's subtle worship masterlist Honestly, if a resource like this existed when I was first starting out, I would be light years ahead of where I am now. Stag has managed to fit just about every idea you'd need to get started with worship/offerings into an easy-to-digest format, and I find myself going back to it time and time again when I start incorporating a new deity into my practice.

@thegrapeandthefig's Wordpress I don't even think I could summarize how amazing Aurora is into one little paragraph. There's everything on her Wordpress from historical offerings, to modern festivals, to dissections of various ancient customs. One of the things which has helped me the most from her blog has been her Attic calendar, which shows the schedule of the various religious observations throughout the year (and there are a lot).

Finally, a few extra words of advice that I might not have included in my original post that you mentioned in the ask:

Try to have one prayer memorized for each deity, if you're easily able to memorize things. Chances are, after about a year or so, you'll probably have a prayer or two that you really like and will have memorized because you've said it enough (I definitely have my fair share). And there's definitely something nice about finding yourself in a situation that reminds you of your deity and being able to just rattle off a prayer.

Try to avoid TikTok for your spiritual knowledge. But, if you want to add a bit of Hellenic flair to your FYP, I'd recommend Bria Melitta and hesiodic (who's also on here and maybe on TikTok as well [I might be wrong, haven't been on TikTok in a hot minute] under the name @olympianbutch). Both of these creators are really good, and I especially love Dagan for his devotion to Zeus, who often gets a bad rap from new practitioners because of behavior attributed to Him in myths.

Other than the resources I mentioned, some good stuff for casual reading would be: the Iliad and the Odyssey, any ancient Greek plays (I'd recommend starting with Aristophanes, if the tragedies are a bit too heavy), and Hesiod's Theogony.

And that's about all I can possibly think of throwing at you right now! I hope this came in handy, and as always, if you have more questions, please feel free to drop more in my ask box :) I'm always more than happy to answer questions and help to the best of my ability!

Shopify has a blog problem, this creates a really simple and straightforward opportunity for freelance designers/programmers

Earlier this year I settled the editorial decisions I needed for a lot of blogging going forward, and recently I've experimented (repeatedly) with the idea of having a blog on a separate platform, or using Shopify's system.

Having two sites would allow me to blog on a WordPress site, but creates... two sites, therefore complicates everything more. More maintenance, design, etc. etc.

I am actively seeking to make my life easier so I am foregoing two sites and learning to live with the limitations.

A personal struggle to the surprise of no one.

You can use WordPress and thread Shopify through it via the "buy" button, which is a shortcut for small stores and/or larger stores where you are very comfortable in WordPress.

You cannot use Shopify and thread WordPress through it.

Which is a shame.

Because Shopify's native blog platform is fucking horrible.

An independent graphic designer who can program, or a programmer who can design, cannot solve Shopify's problems.

They are inherent to the system and likely built on legacy code Shopify doesn't want to update because it'll cost a fortune.

I'll just be mad about this until the market forces them to address this opportunity and they revamp their blogging platform. That's fine.

Or maybe decades will pass and they won't. That's... fine too. I guess.

I am rambling this out because if I were in the business of freelance graphic design and/or programming I would jump on this immediately. I used to be and always shared opportunities with friends and it was fun and I kinda miss that aspect of the life.

I'm not in that business, and I have in-house programming, please don't pitch me, but do consider pitching... pretty much everyone with a Shopify site and a blog as Phase 01 of your plan, and everyone who has a Shopify site and does not have a blog as Phase 02 of your plan.

Here is what I would tackle:

Shopify blogs have two structures: "blog" and "blog post".

A blog in Shopify is essentially a category in WordPress, with more limitations, such as, a blog post can only be in a single "blog". That sucks but it means your life as a designer/developer gets more interesting.

Most Shopify themes come out of the box with 1 "blog" and 1 "blog post" template. They are exceptionally simple, usually. I would build a few test templates and offer them to clients "these will be modified to fit your direct style."

For some reason -- I'm guessing focus -- most blogs in Shopify have the image on top. If you structure "image on the left, image on the right" as options you can offer clients, you've just tripled their layout capabilities.

For another reason, I don't know why, but almost all shopify blog post templates I've seen do not have sidebars. Which is insane?! You can control that from the fucking "blog post" template so it would be an easy win.

You could work around the "a post can only be in one blog on Shopify" issue by having a sidebar that pulls the latest 3 (or 5 or whatever) posts as links for other blogs on the site: TEST SITE has 3 blogs. When you're looking at a post on BLOG 01, in the sidebar, you see a link to the latest post on BLOG 02 and BLOG 03. Similarly, when you're looking at a post on BLOG 02, the sidebar has the latest post from BLOG 01 and BLOG 03 (and so on)

The template I use, off the shelf, uses the Shopify's user name and details for the author of the blog. Once a blog post is created, in Shopify, you cannot alter the author. This is dumb as fucking rock salt on slug popcorn. But, again, systematic, I'm pitching ideas on ways around it -- exclude this and just use a CUSTOM DATA field to allow the Shopify owner to pick the relevant author. This cuts down on the need for extra Shopify users, tremendously, and builds in the opportunity for WordPress-style author footers on blog posts.

Emulate the very common filtering on products -- dropdowns, sorting mechanisms -- with tags on a sidebar on BLOG templates. This will be tricky because you cannot hook into the Search & Discovery function, but it's absolutely no where near impossible. And would be amazingly useful.

Overall Shopify is a decent platform with significant advantages.

There blogger apps but holy shit that is so unnecessary. If they were a one-time-fee, it would be fine, but they aren't, they're generally $20+/month.

I'm not interested in paying for a service that ties me into another tech system that I am fucked if they go out of business, jack up their prices, introduce a feature I don't like, or remove a feature I do like.

For something like a blog system.

Which relies HEAVILY on very structured, single-built, near-infinitely-reused templates.

A low effort, high yield opportunity exists for independent designer/programmers to come up with a suite of designs and say "hey with some very simple modifications, we can take 1 of the following, apply it to your store, and dramatically increase your in-site blogging opportunities."

You start with a base "blog post" template and a base "blog" template and then every time someone hires you to add a feature to theirs, using Shopify's core tech -- you're just applying paint -- you now have a second set of templates.

Recycle forward.

One time fee per client -- likely low, but again effort is low since 90% of the code is re-used -- and each time you secure a client, you have opened a networking door.

Just make sure you include instructions and/or a premium service for when the customer upgrades their theme version -- "occasionally your theme author will upgrade, and this may get lost... so do the following to bring it back and/or we'll handle it for you for $X and Y-days notice."

Business opportunities are everywhere.

Good luck!

I repeat don't add me to your pitch list, I have a programmer in-house, but use this idea to make a business or extend yours!

This isn't financial advice, it is annoyed rambling!

This blog should probably be on WordPress, and I should probably begin it on desktop because mobile app customization is limited and the stock tumblr page is unprofessional, but sometimes you just have to start, even if it's not perfect or you're not fully ready. I already spend most of my social media time on tumblr, so while I'm here that's less of an excuse to put off contributing to this, unlike my custom anthropology site...

I've been fascinated with fiber arts and the history of textiles for a very long time. My first weaving project was a small shoulder bag around a piece of cardboard for an Arts & Crafts class in high school. I still have it, hanging on my wall. It's always been in the back of my mind to pick it up again. Every so often I would think, "A loom would fit perfectly in that corner of my room," but then I'd think of the cost and labor and wave it off as fantasy.

Then my mom lied about having covid19, and I ended up exhausted and bed-bound for months. A year to the day later and I am still not better. I guess this is my life now =/ Out of any "reasonable" workforce, I finally have an excuse to seriously pursue crafts. There are too many issues to get into why arts and crafting rarely make a decent living, but maybe I can make enough to survive.

This adventure actually began with the desire to create unique fabric accessories. But how would mine stand out from the crowd? I could handweave the fabric. The cheapest loom is a backstrap, but it's also physically intensive to counterbalance the warp with your own body. Floor looms are too expensive. A rigid heddle would make the right size for what I need, but

But shaft envy.

I visited a local weaving guild, borrowed their rigid heddle, and got to work playing.

Still, I tried for two months to purchase a small RH loom off of FB Marketplace, but the seller always cancelled. I tried ebay. Now, ebay wants to be helpful in separating you from your hard-earned money, so it will shove related searches right in your face. So many different looms. A pretty table loom for the same price as a new rigid heddle, and then a sixty year-old floor loom for only fifty bucks more (plus the gas to drive to get it). I thought on it for almost a week, made sure I had transportation, and contacted the seller. 21 hours of driving and loading, a taco break, and more driving, and I had a new-to-me Fanny I counterbalance floor loom by leClerc, with a ton of bells and whistles.

Instead of putting it in my room, with only one North-facing window, I cleaned the basement and put it in a corner with South and Western windows.

Ain't she a beaut?

Putting it together was fun. The instruction manual came with it, so set-up was a breeze. I've spent the past few days reading it ("Warp and Weave" by Robert LeClerc), marveling at the craftsmanship, reinforcing concepts similar to rigid heddle style, and taking interest in their differences.

I'll start off by just doing a warp from beam to beam so I can have a foot or so in the front to play with and learn how she operates. I'm thinking basic 1-2-3-4 for twill, which will still allow for a plain weave combo for comparison with the lap loom.

Hi Steph,

I am just wondering about your full fic rec list. When I click the link, it just brings me back to your home page. I cannot see your fic lists anymore.

Hey Nonny!

AHHHH Okay I know what the problem is as I have been asked about it before. Are you using the mobile app? Because on the app it just doesn't work. I have NO idea why. My theory is this, with what little I know about UI: I think the app can't read "sub-pages" (basically, it creates a folder on your blog that doesn't have a unique blog number code that the mobile app can read) that Desktop users are able to create on the "Customize" page of the Desktop Version (which functions essentially like a Wordpress blog), and because it's not reading it as a "real page" it gets forced into an endless link loop.

THE TUMBLR APP IS GARBAGE. It has been since implementation and they NEVER ever properly made the desktop and app versions work together.

It was only just LATE LAST YEAR that the desktop / browser version got all the style sheet stuff mobile's had for years AND the ability to edit mobile-made posts (before it used to lock you out and you had to go to the app to fix any posts even just reblogged on mobile, which is why I NEVER EVER blogged on the app). It's so bizarre that Tumblr hates their desktop/web browser users but it's the only version of the site that functions properly and is completely stable.

THAT ALL SAID, Nonny, the simple fix is to log into Tumblr on your Phone's web browser app, whether that's Safari, Firefox, Chrome, whatever... It functions just like the desktop version and all the links will work again for you.

OR you can copy-paste this web address into your web browser if you don't want to do that and the page will open as it should, since my blog isn't locked to only-Tumblr:

http://inevitably-johnlocked.tumblr.com/myficrecs

And to see the other pages just add a "2", "3", "4" or "5" at the end. I'm so sorry for the shit-show Nonny, but it IS there and the links all work on my end, and I just checked my web browser on my iPhone and it works in Safari <3

I should REALLY make a Rebloggable post since this is probably never going to be fixed on mobile (a rebloggable post will give it that unique ID number I mentioned and SHOULD fix the "fuck you mobile" issue, LOL). Let me know if y'all would like me to do that, and I'll put the pages as separate reblogs.

*HUGS*

Understanding the Difference Between a Website and a Web Page: A Complete Guide

Understanding the Difference Between a Website and a Web Page: A Complete Guide

In today’s digital landscape, terms like website and web page are used interchangeably, often causing confusion among businesses and individuals seeking an online presence. However, as a business owner or a digital marketer, understanding the difference is essential for creating an impactful online strategy.

At KSoft Technologies, where we specialize in website development, digital marketing, and SEO services, we often encounter this question from clients. This guide not only simplifies the distinction between a website and a web page but also explores their technical aspects and how they align with your business goals.

What is a Website?

A website is a collection of interlinked web pages hosted under a single domain name, designed to serve a specific purpose. Think of it as a digital storefront or an online hub that provides a comprehensive experience to users. Websites can vary significantly based on their type and functionality:

Corporate Websites Ideal for businesses aiming to showcase their products, services, and achievements. For example, the KSoft Technologies website highlights our expertise in areas like SEO, app development, and web design.

E-Commerce Websites Platforms like Amazon or Shopify allow businesses to sell products directly to customers. These websites integrate payment gateways, inventory management systems, and customer service functionalities.

Portfolio Websites Focused on showcasing individual or business achievements, these websites are ideal for freelancers or creative professionals.

Landing Pages Dedicated pages within a website that focus on lead generation and conversions, often used in digital marketing campaigns.

Blogs and Forums Content-centric websites aimed at providing information, engaging with communities, or building authority in a niche.

Technical Structure of a Website

A website comprises:

Domain Name: The unique address users type in to access the site (e.g., ksofttechnologies.com).

Hosting Server: Where all the data and files of the website are stored.

Content Management System (CMS): Tools like WordPress or Joomla that allow users to create and manage content.

Backend and Frontend: The backend involves server-side scripting (e.g., PHP, Python), while the frontend includes design elements (e.g., HTML, CSS, JavaScript).

What is a Web Page?

A web page is a single document within a website, identifiable by its unique URL. For example, on ksofttechnologies.com, the “Contact Us” page or “Services” page is a web page.

Types of Web Pages

Static Pages Content remains the same unless manually updated. They’re ideal for information like company profiles or mission statements.

Dynamic Pages Content is fetched from a database and changes based on user interaction. Examples include dashboards or search results pages.

Landing Pages Specifically designed for marketing campaigns, focusing on a single product, service, or call to action.

Blog Posts Individual articles or write-ups focused on specific topics within a blog section of a website.

Technical Structure of a Web Page

Each web page includes:

URL Structure: For example, https://ksofttechnologies.com/services.

HTML Markup: Defines the structure and content of the page.

CSS and JavaScript: For styling and functionality.

Metadata: Helps search engines understand the page content.

Key Differences Between a Website and a Web Page

 Definition

Website: A collection of multiple interlinked web pages.

Web Page: A single document within a website.

Scope

Website: Broader; provides comprehensive information or services.

Web Page: Narrower; focuses on a specific topic or purpose.

 URL

Website: Main domain name (e.g., ksofttechnologies.com).

Web Page: A subset URL (e.g., /services, /about-us).

 Interactivity

Website: Enables complex user interactions.

Web Page: May have limited or single-point interactions.

 Purpose

Website: Serves as the entire digital presence.

Web Page: Addresses a specific intent or question.

How Websites and Web Pages Work Together

To draw an analogy, a website is like a library, while web pages are the individual books or chapters within it. Each web page serves a specific purpose and contributes to the overall functionality of the website.

Example from KSoft Technologies

Website Level: Visitors land on ksofttechnologies.com, where they see an overview of our services like web development, app design, and SEO consulting.

Web Page Level: When they click on "Digital Marketing," they are directed to a dedicated page detailing our strategies, success stories, and packages.

Why Understanding the Difference Matters

For businesses, distinguishing between a website and a web page is crucial for:

Better SEO Strategy Search engines like Google evaluate websites and individual web pages differently. Optimizing individual pages for keywords (e.g., “website development services”) improves rankings and traffic.

User Experience Creating well-structured websites and easy-to-navigate web pages ensures a seamless user journey.

Content Strategy Knowing the role of each web page within your website helps in creating targeted and engaging content.

SEO Best Practices for Websites and Web Pages

Keyword Optimization Include relevant keywords like “website development,” “SEO services,” and “digital marketing agency” in titles, headings, and content.

Internal Linking Link related web pages within your website to improve navigation and reduce bounce rates.

Responsive Design Ensure your website and all web pages are optimized for mobile devices.

Page Load Speed Use tools like Google PageSpeed Insights to identify and fix issues.

Content Quality Provide valuable and actionable content for visitors, such as this guide explaining technical concepts.

How KSoft Technologies Can Help

At KSoft Technologies, we understand that your website is the cornerstone of your digital presence. Whether you need a user-friendly corporate website, high-converting e-commerce platform, or optimized web pages for SEO, our team of experts is here to help.

Our services include:

Website Design and Development: Tailored to your brand and business goals.

SEO Services: Ensuring your web pages rank high for targeted keywords.

Content Strategy: Helping you create engaging, keyword-rich content for better rankings and user retention.

Conclusion

While a website is the broader digital presence, web pages are its building blocks. Understanding the distinction between the two helps in planning and executing a robust online strategy. By leveraging the expertise of KSoft Technologies, you can ensure that your website and web pages work seamlessly to drive traffic, generate leads, and grow your business.

Plus, with thousands of themes and plugins available, users can tailor their site’s appearance and functionality to align with their brand and goals.

Flexibility and Customization WordPress offers a variety of themes and plugins to match any industry or style. Whether you’re launching a portfolio, eCommerce store, or blog, WordPress provides flexible design options. With plugins like WooCommerce, you can turn your WordPress site into an online store. For added customization, many themes support page builders like Elementor and Divi, which enable drag-and-drop editing without coding.

SEO-Friendly Features WordPress is inherently SEO-friendly, offering features such as customizable permalinks, mobile-responsive designs, and support for structured data. Optimizing these elements enhances your site’s discoverability on search engines. WordPress also makes it easy to manage SEO-related tasks, especially when paired with the right plugins.

How to Optimize Your WordPress Site for SEO

To fully leverage WordPress for SEO, follow these essential tips:

Use an SEO Plugin Plugins like Yoast SEO and Rank Math provide comprehensive tools to optimize meta tags, sitemaps, and content readability. They guide you in adding keywords, optimizing images, and creating a structured site map that helps search engines crawl and index your site more efficiently.

Optimize Page Speed Site speed is a crucial ranking factor. Optimize images using plugins like Smush or Imagify to reduce file sizes without compromising quality. Use a caching plugin, such as WP Rocket or W3 Total Cache, to improve load times by storing static versions of your pages. A faster site enhances user experience and ranks better on search engines.

Mobile Responsiveness With mobile searches outpacing desktop, having a mobile-friendly site is essential. Most WordPress themes are designed to be responsive, but always check how your site displays on mobile devices. Google’s Mobile-Friendly Test can help you ensure your site provides a seamless experience on all screens.

Optimize Permalinks and URLs By default, WordPress offers several permalink structures. Choose a structure that includes keywords and is easy to read, such as "Post name." For example, change URLs like “mysite.com/?p=123” to “mysite.com/wordpress-seo-tips” to improve clarity and relevance to search engines.

Use Internal and External Links Internal links guide users through your site, encouraging them to explore more content. They also help search engines understand your site's structure and content relationships. Additionally, linking to authoritative external sources can enhance your site’s credibility. Just ensure these links are relevant to your content.

Regularly Update Content Keeping your content fresh signals to search engines that your site is active and valuable. Update blog posts with recent information, check for broken links, and add new pages when relevant. Regular updates can boost your search engine ranking and engage returning visitors.

Focus on Quality Content Content is a major SEO factor. Create high-quality, valuable content targeting keywords relevant to your audience. Instead of keyword-stuffing, focus on naturally incorporating primary and secondary keywords to maintain readability and relevance.

Conclusion

A well-optimized WordPress site is a powerful tool to boost your online visibility. With easy-to-use plugins and a range of customization options, WordPress makes it simpler to maintain an SEO-friendly site. By following these best practices, you’ll improve search engine rankings, drive organic traffic, and strengthen your online presence. Whether you’re new to WordPress or a seasoned user, these tips will help you get the most out of your site.

What is Headless WordPress and When Should You Use It? | Island Wizards

As businesses evolve and digital experiences become more sophisticated, traditional website setups are often not enough to meet modern demands. Enter headless WordPress—a flexible, high-performance solution that offers better control over both the front-end and back-end. If you're wondering when and why you should consider this approach, we’ve got you covered.

What is Headless WordPress?

In a traditional WordPress setup, the content management system (CMS) is tightly coupled with the front-end display, meaning the website's content and its design are intertwined. However, in a headless WordPress setup, the CMS is decoupled from the front-end. The “head” (front-end) is removed, allowing developers to use APIs to push content to various platforms like websites, mobile apps, or any digital interface.

In simpler terms, with headless WordPress, WordPress manages the back-end content, while the front-end is managed separately, usually using technologies like React, Vue.js, or Angular.

Benefits of Headless WordPress

Flexibility Across PlatformsHeadless WordPress allows you to push content to multiple platforms. Whether you're delivering content to a mobile app, a website, or even a wearable device, this system enables you to maintain a single content repository.

Faster PerformanceBy decoupling the front-end from the back-end, your site can load faster and more efficiently. Headless WordPress websites can often use faster, modern JavaScript frameworks for front-end rendering, improving user experience and speed.

ScalabilityFor businesses that plan to scale their online presence, headless architecture offers a future-proof solution. Content can be reused and distributed across different channels without major changes to the back-end.

Enhanced SecuritySince the front-end and back-end are decoupled, potential vulnerabilities in the front-end won’t necessarily compromise your back-end. This makes headless WordPress websites inherently more secure.

Customization FreedomUnlike traditional WordPress, where your design choices may be limited to available themes, headless WordPress allows complete freedom to design a custom front-end using the latest technologies.

When Should You Use Headless WordPress?

At Island Wizards, we recommend using headless WordPress in the following situations:

Multiple Channels: If your business requires content distribution across websites, mobile apps, and other platforms, headless WordPress is the way to go.

High-Traffic Websites: If you expect high levels of traffic and need your site to load lightning-fast, headless architecture can deliver optimized performance and better user experiences.

Complex, Custom Front-End: If you have specific front-end design requirements that can’t be easily handled by traditional WordPress themes, headless WordPress offers unmatched flexibility and customization.

Security Concerns: Businesses that are security-conscious may benefit from the enhanced protection offered by a decoupled system.

Headless WordPress at Island Wizards

At Island Wizards, we specialize in building headless WordPress websites that combine the power of a flexible back-end with modern front-end technologies. Our experts can help you create a lightning-fast, secure, and scalable website that meets the unique demands of your business.

If you're looking for a powerful, future-proof solution, headless WordPress is the way forward. Reach out to Island Wizards today to explore how we can tailor a headless WordPress solution to your needs.
