It may be time for you to end a partnership too. Have you done business with a designer who doesn’t deliver as promised? Is your web hosting package still meeting your needs or is there a better package out there for you? 

Don’t be afraid to break ties when it’s in your best interest. Also, don’t be afraid to be yourself and don’t accept less than you deserve. Your blog should not be linked to the site of another if its detrimental to you and your blog should attract big players in the niche.
