We Put the Puppy to Sleep

In 2009, the PTM website was renovated and unveiled. The address of the site — PTMIN.org.

Frank Viola

Last week, however, we put the puppy to sleep. That being translated means: we took the website down.

PTMIN.org automatically redirects to this site now.

Why?

  1. It became too difficult to manage two large websites – this site and the PTM web page.
  2. Daily traffic was being split between the two sites.
  3. My blog (this site) is more important than the other website due to the fresh content that is regularly posted here.

As far as I can see (right now at least), there is no fall-out from making this move.

All the resources that were available on PTMIN.org have been moved to the blog and updated.

Just go over the menu of this blog at the very top and you’ll access all of the pages.

I hope the resources on this blog bless you and deepen your relationship with the Lord.

If you have a blog or website, we would appreciate a link to frankviola.org

Thanks so much!

    Willow Creek Review (Article)

    I like to read what did Willow Creek Review had to say about DECONSTRUCTING CHRISTENDOM, but it is not there. Can you dig that out please?

      Did you find it on the Mediography. If so, the link is fixed. Try it now.

    I’m for anything that gives people more time in real life and less time on the computer. I agree that your blog is more important and I’m glad you are devoting your time to it. I know as a blog writer, I soon lose what makes my writing relevant to others when I spend too much time logged on and tuned out from the people in my life.

    Good move dear brother and it was wise to let the old domain work for you to forward links for a season before you made this move. Also you have done the redirect script well so that should help maintain the link priority in google. (for those less technically inclined ignore this message 😛 ).

    now you just need to setup an iTunes podcast for ChristIsAll and you are set 🙂

      Thx. for the encouragement, Greg. I believe the podcast is set up for iTunes. This should get one there: itpc://ptmin.podbean.com/feed

    I was all sad thinking you actually had to put a puppy to sleep…but I think cutting out the website and consolidating everything on the blog was a good idea. 🙂

    I think that’s a great move. I always recommend clients I’m working with to keep their blog and informational site in the same location for SEO purposes and just simplicity.

    It was a good (but tough) decision. Maintaining multiple websites does get difficult.

    This way, directing all the traffic to one domain will help all your rankings.
