New look to celebrate 5 years of blogging

This month sees the 5th anniversary of this blog with now over 850 articles published.
I would like to thank all the readers and particularly those that share the articles and/or pose questions and comments. It remains a privilege to share my thoughts, research and knowledge with such a wide and diverse audience.
Two things stand out.
- First is just how much I have learned myself by researching answers to questions put to me.
- Secondly just how wide the readership is now with people from at over 60 countries reading regularly. Only yesterday I was asked to allow many of the posts to be translated into Slovakian to assist the local industry educate the public on insurance. I naturally agreed immediately.
The blog has also encouraged my son to start becoming a vlogger or video blogger through his series on YouTube called Insurance Bites. He publishes a new video with the help of LMI Media’s Andrew Pitts each Wednesday. If you have not visited the site I encourage you to do so.
I do get a great number of requests for a guest post and while I do permit and encourage this, I do vet the content carefully to ensure it is not a product flog and that the topic is of relevance to the majority of readers in the countries where the bulk of the readership is.
The old site was looking a bit dated so the site www.allanmanning.com has had a refresh.
A very warm thank you to Ashleigh White, Executive Assistant for your work on this.
