15 April 2012: Welcome to The In-Depth Genealogist
Our new website was born! Our first post introduced us, and this was followed by other introductions: Columns, Contributors, and Guests. Since then, we’ve added feature articles, more blog posts on topics such as book and website reviews, and the beginnings of the IDG Archives.
Our website received 6099 visits in the first month! This number excites us because it shows us that we’re providing material that you, the genealogist, would like to read. Our goal is to support genealogists of all levels, so please share with us how we can do this. Feel free to leave a comment below, drop us a note in the IDG Forum, or Contact Us.
