There’s lots of changes coming to Healthy WebDesign.

The first…my website/blog has moved. It is no longer at healthywebdesign.com. You’ll see above that it’s now at dmiracle.com.

Second, I’m changing the name of my site from Healthy WebDesign to Dawud Miracle @ dmiracle.com. I’ll be updating the banner in the coming days.

This is a difficult, but for many reaons, a necessary move. The short of it is I’ve far outgrown just being known as a web designer. So while I’ll continue to build websites long into the future, I’m going to begin directly promoting my coaching, consulting and educational services as well. I’ll be sharing much more on these changes in the coming weeks.
