A Big Thank You
Lately, there has been talk about WordPress Plugin and Theme developers not receiving enough credit and appreciation for their work, if any at all. While this may be true, I want to make sure we acknowledge those who do express their appreciation and gratitude through Paypal donations, sending a gift on my Amazon wishlist, or even just sending a message of thanks on Twitter.
Today UPS delivered a mid-sized to my home. As I opened the cardboard shipping box, I was amazed to find a gift-wrapped package inside. Someone had purchased the book Do the Right Thing, by Mike Huckabee, from my Amazon wishlist. The book was gift-wrapped, and included a note which read
Thanks heaps for creating the All in One SEO WordPress Plug-in. Great Work.
I want to send a huge “Thank You” to Brad Younger, of Vickley Marketing. It is always nice to know that your hard work is appreciated, and his thoughtfulness certainly went a long way.

Congrats!
You definitely deserve this.
Thank you for your work and contribution to the development of WordPress.
Greetings from Brazil,
That was so incredibly cool. Nowadays, it seems really difficult to get a simple “thank you,” that a lot of people have just given up.
I am glad to see that there are still thoughtful human beings out there. I was beginning to think that dogs were our only hope!
You deserve it… I donated a couple of $ too 🙂
Michael,
I’ve been using your SEO Pack for my WordPress blog for some time now. While tweaking the latest version, I clicked the link to your site to learn a bit more about the author and drop you a comment.
First, thanks for the hard work on your plug-in! It definitely has helped my very noobie blog increase its rank, web presence and traffic!
Your post today is correct. There are a lot of WordPress and plug-in authors that don’t get the credit they deserve! You, sir, get a hat tip from me!
Thanks for the hard work!

Hi Marco,
Thank you for using my plugins, but please address support issues in the appropriate place, rather than in the comments of my personal blog. http://semperfiwebdesign.com/forum/
If I come across a really informative blog with a donation or “buy me a beer” plugin I usually do just that, blogs ont usually pay quite as much as people think.
Nice read.
Thanks.
I am a total novice when it comes to social media, SEO etc…so this is a massive learning curve, I am grateful for people like yourselves building the software that you do. I want to make a donation but I would like to know a couple of basic things first if that is ok, as at the moment, the plugin is there and I don’t have the foggiest what to do with it,or where to go to learn, in PLAIN english and not cyber talk!??
Can you please point me in the right direction and I will happily show my appreciation through amazon or paypal.

Unfortunately, I don’t work for donations. Those are gifts, not payment for services. All of my plugins have documentation at http://semperfiwebdesign.com/. If you need assistance, you can check out the support forums at http://semperfiwebdesign.com/forum/.

You certainly will be on my list…

Yeah – I’ve used the SEO plugin a few times and would like to say thanks muchly. I’ve made a donation but would have loved it to have been more!
I had a look at your Amazon wishlist and then chickened out of buying you a clock. Wish I hadn’t now!!
