As such I will listen to any reasonable offers for the Digital Learning World Blog – Also accompanying Digital Learning World EMail, Twitter, Bitly accounts.

Domain name and current Hosting can also be included – a turnkey blog.

I would preferably like to pass this over to an educator with a passion for technology integration that will further develop Digital Learning World.

As yet Digital Learning World has not been ‘monetized’. However, Google analytic stats show around 2,000 hits per month (nearly 70 per day) – so there is potential.

I also would be interested in offers for the Reflex Education Solutions web site and the popular IGCSE ICT Online Moodle site - http://www.reflex.ac/IGCSE ICT.html (listed as an official resource by CIE)

Sadly, I’m not able to devote as much time to this and would preferably like to hand over to an experienced Cambridge IGSCE ICT Teacher.

Please feel free to contact me directly at:  cliver@digitallearningworld.com
