Today is a big day. After almost two years I’ve decided to leave my blog on Blogger and switch definitively to WordPress. There are many reasons behind this choice: mainly the constant increase in traffic during the last year that has convinced me to offer a more professional service for all my readers. In almost two years, I wrote 400 articles and woork has reached over 27.000 RSS feed subscribers and 1 million pageviews per month. I never imagined a similar result when I started my blog. I want to say a big thanks to everyone who support me and my blog, in particular all my readers, my Twitter followers and Facebook friends.
A big thanks to Smashing Magazine, CSS Globe and Noupe, that have contributed noticeably to make woork a popular blog, mentioning my posts on their pages.
Today I’m very happy to launch this new website, woorkup.com a web community about web design, tech news and digital inspiration. New readers can subscribe my RSS feeds here. Please add this website to del.icio.us and spread the word on Twitter. I hope you’ll like the simple and clean design I used for these pages. New contents will be soon available on these pages. Comments and suggestions are appreciated.
Stay Tuned.
Antonio Lupetti

Congratulation Antonio!
Just a question : will you close your blog on blogger or still post articles there ? and what about the 400 articles and resources you have on blogger??
The old blog will remain so as is. I will not add new posts on Blogger.
Your old blog was the best blogger blog, and this one is great, too. Switching to WordPress is a good decision, and I’d love to read articles about WordPress.
Of course Natalia. I’m going to add new interesting post about WordPress in the next weeks.
Congratulations Antonio.
I bet WordPress community will have a new theme designer soon.
And hopefully its free…ahaha :)

Congrats Antonio on a successful move! The design looks awesome (as usual) and i look forward to more great content. You won’t regret moving to WordPress and here’s to the site growing even more over the next few years buddy :-)
Nice theme, nice to see you on WordPress :)
Wow! I really am digging this design! Nice job, and congrats on the succesful move!
A question: in the future, can we sign up for the community?
Congratulations Antonio, and finally on WordPress as well ;-)
Congratulations Antonio!
Keep the good work and we will still coming back (now on your new WP blog) :-)
Its a heart break for me i used to get a lot of inspiration for blog design from your blog, which i cant get any more and i am very very happy for you for having a new site and hope it will be huge success just like your blog wishing you lots of luck and this woorkup design is so cool keep up the great work and keep inspiring us good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations Woork ! Nice website… about Tech. This new design will surely attract more visitor ! But what you are going to do with the old Blogger Blog @ http://woork.blogspot.com ? URL redirection !
Cheer & mix it !
Hope, similar posts to that of your blog.
Good Luck !
Wow ! Congrats
so we can expect wordpress themes ! here after !
great work!
I’m really liking the new site. I could never understand why you used Blogspot for so long as its clear that your work belongs somewhere better than a free, hosted blogging system!
Awesome !!! :D
congrats on your new site and welcome to WordPress,
can wait to hear your topic about WordPress :D
Well done buddy. New Woork looks exceptionally good. I was waiting to see your new woork for long time now. Now it’s here. Great design.
Did you design the wordpress template yourself?
I’m honestly extremely happy that finally you’re out of that damn blogging platform named blogger. Hope you experience the usefulness of wordpress.
I’d like to recommend you to use a static page in Contact Us link instead of direct Emailing link. While surfing your blog from mobile, I wanted to leave a note to you personally, but that link didn’t work out. I recommend you using “Contact form 7″ plugin to handle the Emailing factors and then place that inside a static contact page something like woorkup.com/contact
Anyway, I sent you an Email. Expecting your reply.
It can say simply awesome. Very nice design.. simple n catchy. Good luck and best wishes
congratulations!
I like the design, keep the good articles coming!
Looks great! Congrats on a great looking site.
Congratulations for this move, is awesome.
Waiting more great posts.
Nice Start Antonio.. Congratulation. I like the minimal style design and now i’m looking forward to see more rich content in future.

i love this blog , hey man keep on posting new web design articles ( tutorials on how to neighboring Web 2 designs )
Antonio, when I first started reading Woork, you had probably just started blogging – the blog had a Google PageRank of 0. I’ve been impressed with your tutorials and your taste in design since then. Over the months I’ve seen Woork swell into a major force in the web design world, and I’m sure WoorkUp will maintain the same success. In any case, you have a devoted reader here. Best of luck with everything!
Thanks a lot friend!
Great choice Antonio!
You’re doing the right thing to move to WordPress :-)
Love your work.
Keep it up!
Best regards,
Pierre, presetsheaven.com
Congratulations and good luck! I have a question about the design: What did you use for the theme at the starting point (an another theme or a framework).
Afsin, I used the default WordPress Theme.
Antonio,
Congrats on the new look and move – hopefully that means more of your insight and tips on WordPress!
complimentoni ingegnere.. ti seguo sempre via feed anche se non ti ho mai scritto un messaggio..
il nuovo template è perfetto..
continua cosi alla grande..
Grazie!
Clean design!
Oh! Yet another WordPress blog ;-)
Glad that things working good for you. Looking forward to see your brand new articles.
Congrats on the transition – looking forward for some wordpress tips :)
Have a good day!

Great design Antonio, and good luck with WP that you seem to master well :-D
One thing is the feedburner feed link above which in Safari (at least) has an error in it and you have to manually edit it to add to your feed reader …
I’m using Safari 4 but I don’t have this error!
Hi Antonio, though you promoted Blogger in your posts even comparing it to wordpress, I always thought a day would come when you would move to WordPress and finally the day came. Instead of leaving your blogger blog behind why not export it to Woorkup there a lot of manuals for moving from blogger to wordpress maintaining permalinks. The first commentor , Amit also has a post on it.
Hope you will do so..
very simple theme and beautiful. i like it. But you don’t forget blogger and you should continue make a blogger templates and you should share us:)
Great work, Antonio! I love the clean approach.
Congratulations and Good luck.
will u write about wordpress?? :D
Nice woork! Been following your blog for some time and I think you have the best blogspot theme ever! Good luck! :D
Your blog at blogger looks great too. What are the most important difference you find between the two? Thanks.
Congratulations And Best Wishes ..
I want to say : thank you for every lesson you wrote …
you & and your blog are great
The theme’s superb, I like the color contrast and positioning of elements throughout every page. Congratulations and good luck!
Fantastic news Antonio! I love reading your blog, many times you teached me something new. Good luck!
Congratulation !!! Good Luck. Your blog is very useful to me.
Good luck really like the new design. Keep up the good work
