Last week, I announced that the Business Directory on The WP World is now free! I had quite a number of businesses sign up and spent a good amount of time working out a system of moderation and cleanup.

Between that and taking the weekend off from the web (it was my 17th wedding anniversary!), I didn't add anything new in terms of features. (Unless you count these two new t-shirts in the shop! 👕)

That said, the site did add a new yearly sponsor, Pressable! Thank you to the folks there for supporting the site and I'm so happy to have them onboard 🫶

New Features and Updates

🆓 Business Listings are now FREE: As mentioned last week, the Business Directory is one of the places in the site that I think could have much more value, so I've decided to remove the cost barrier and make it free for everyone. There are already close to 40 new businesses since last week! Go add your company now! (Please.)

Not new but overlooked ⤵️
