This week, I was able to create another website at sites@UMW. If you would like to check it out you can find the link here.
Now, upon spending some time on sites@UMW I’ve been able to form my own opinion about it but I don’t think I will share it here. There are some stark differences between the two. Appearance, for example, on sites@UMW is severely limited. A user will only have a sample of a few themes to choose from for their site, compared to the hundreds available on Domain of One’s Own. I think this serves as a good example for the overall differences between the two websites. Domain of One’s Own will give the user more control and options when it comes to the site and what’s on it (like themes for the appearance and specific tools for posts and pages), sites@UMW doesn’t have as many options to use or even specific plugins to add. They are, however, similar in the ways that the user can customize their site.
