Thank you, Debby! I immediately clicked on Hugh’s post about adding a search bar because the search bar on my blog is in the wrong place…or maybe it’s in the right place and I need to fix how my blog appears to readers. Anyway, I know now that I have some work to do to make the blog easier for readers to navigate.
Off to read your other links. Thanks for sharing these!

Thanks for the tips Debby and Hugh. I have to say that initially, I was pleased to know that I have a Search Bar, and I definitely use it myself on my laptop. But thanks to Hugh’s comment about going back to your blog to check its position, it occurred to me to check the mobile version. Much to my dismay, I could see that my Archives and Search Bar are at the very bottom. I had to scroll through 3 years of posts to reach it. Clearly, I need to fix that. This was an excellent tip. π
