Home » From the editors » From the editors: Thailand blog in 2024 – Same same, but different
First of all, we wish everyone a great 2024! Today this is the first posting of the new year and many more will follow.
What we will do in 2024 is what we have been doing for over 14 years, publish fun and interesting articles on Thailandblog for our Belgian and Dutch readers.
A look back
Over the past year we have made some changes to manage the still increasing visitor numbers of Thailandblog, such as the switch to managed VPS hosting. Furthermore, we decided to choose Cloudflare as the CDN to ensure that anywhere in the world one can find Thailandblog and the website can load quickly.
Another important step is the recent implantation of a translation plugin (Gtranslate). This makes Thailandblog available in more than 80 different languages and extends Thailandblog's reach many times over. So that the whole world can enjoy the beautiful stories on Thailandblog.
Thailandblog will be celebrating its 2024th anniversary in 15
This year will be a special year, because Thailandblog will be celebrating its 10th anniversary on October 15! Definitely a moment to reflect on. We will pay appropriate attention to this!
Best wishes to you all too!!
