Written by Braedlyn McEwen | Mar 4, 2020 12:15:00 PM

Today, we are celebrating one year since we officially launched BoshartU! Exciting isn't it? Throughout the past year, we have received lots of positive feedback and suggestions that improves our blog posts and also allows us to create content that you, the viewer want to see. As we reflect on the past year, we are very proud of BoshartU and the impact it has on our subscriber's daily lives, but like anything, it's not perfect but we are always striving to continuously improve.

Even though today is BoshartU's anniversary, we thought we would give you all a gift, especially since BoshartU would not be what it is today without all of you. We decided to write an anniversary post that will highlight some fun BoshartU facts and also shed some light on how to navigate through BoshartU, to make your life a little easier. Let's start the party!

BoshartU Fun Facts

In one year, we have written and published 52 blog posts, recorded and launched 5 Webinars, published 2 other informational videos and we currently have 675 weekly subscribers to our blog! Did you know we also have a French blog? We have 110 subscribers to it!

Well done! Thank you for following up with this blog! I'm not sure I truly understood the process, I was simply familiar with the idea of venting a gauge. You guys rock and I appreciate your support! - BoshartU Subscriber

Every month, we see a growth in the amount of views we receive. To put it into perspective, for both the English BoshartU and the French BoshartU, in February we had over 5,000 views! In January, combined both blogs had 4,622. This is just an example of how quickly BoshartU is growing.

This is an awesome series and I appreciate them greatly. - BoshartU Subscriber

We are always happy to receive post theme suggestions or other ways to help improve our posts and that is why we have designed a "Did We Miss Anything?" button. This button can be found at the bottom of most posts. By submitting a suggestion or idea, you are helping shape the posts to better suit your needs. 

Navigating BoshartU

Do you have a hard time navigating BoshartU? Don't worry, you aren't alone! We have designed this post to help guide you through the different challenges that people face when navigating our blog site.

Is There a Search Option?

New to BoshartU is our search option. As you can see in the picture above, the search option can be found below the main tabs. When you use the search option, type in what blog post you are looking for and wait for the options to show up, as you can see in the picture below. Currently, when you use the search option and hit enter instead of waiting for options to show up, it will direct you to a page that says the page isn't available. We are looking into getting this fixed but for now while using the search option, simply wait for the posts to show up below then click on the one you are interested in.

Another way to narrow down the posts to find what your are looking for a lot easier is to use the tags we provide. The picture on the right shows an example of what the tags look like. Each post is tagged with the product that each post covers and the industry code that the product falls under. As you can see in the picture, this particular post has three tags.

If you are after posts specifically about plumbing, simply find a more recent post that has been tagged "plumbing" and click on the word. You will then be redirected to a section that only provides you with posts tagged plumbing. It isn't as precise as a search button, but it will narrow down the blogs you are sifting through to save you a bit of time.

Main Tabs

As of right now, there are six main tabs at the top of the page. They are recent posts, plumbing, water well, irrigation, fittings and water filtration.

If you are looking for a specific filtration post, simply click on that option and it will take you to all water filtration related post. We are working on updating these tabs to better suit the current and future posts.

Did We Miss Anything? Button

The "Did We Miss Anything?" button is mainly used to provide suggestions or give ideas but it can also be used for questions regarding the navigation of the blog site or any other issues you run into. We do our best to answer any questions that come through, so don't hesitate to ask. If we don't know the answer, we will reach out to our experts to get the answer. We welcome all inquiries and suggestions.
