    My Chat With Bluehost

    I know plenty that are a fan, and yet, there's many others that are not - personally, I get frustrated as I can't get a Level1 chat rep to forward my request or open a ticket - see another thread here on the forum for that :) As far as "Bluehost offers slightly better features," - you'll need...

    Chart to Compare Wix And Wordpress

    I think the pricing column is incorrect. Wordpress is 100% free. The only time you run into paid options is when you purchase plugins. Many plugins are free, but definitely there are some great paid plugins.

    You Opinion on on AI in websites.

    AI is perfectly fine for websites and SEO - as long as you use your brain. It's been tested by several to dump out thousands of pages, and they rank, but after time, they drop in rankings and power. And depending on the SEO person that ran their experiment, the site was blacklisted from Google...

    Any tips on how to offer managed WordPress hosting like Hostinger or Kinsta hosting?

    In cPanel/WHM you can define that when a site is configured then it auto-installs particular software. This may require some shell scripting, but it can be done. But running cPanel and installing WordPress is only half the battle, and it's not going to be at the same level as someone running...

    Google sells domain division to Squarespace - DNS edits are a nightmare

    Just an update.. SquareSpace took 41 hours to respond to my helpdesk ticket. During that time, the site would have been offline and I wouldn't have been able to work. The response from their staff was to try using a different browser, and to be sure to read the docs on how to do it. I...

    Google sells domain division to Squarespace - DNS edits are a nightmare

    Sorry guys - it's time for a rant! :) Google sold the domain division to Squarespace last year and are still in the process of transferring domains into Squarespace control. I probably have about 50 domains that have transferred successfully, and the DNS for each of them are still using...

    I miss FrontPage

    Sublime for coding is still ranked pretty high for me - can't do much without it these days. Of course I have all my extra shortcodes configured, a repository of frequently used functions, and then integrated to GitHub so I can keep constant revisions and branches under control for various...

    Added favicons to links. Thoughts?

    I say keep it (for now). It'll be a great test to see if someone is spamming links to the same place ;) I'm all for calling attention to links when they're warranted, and every link SHOULD be warranted, or else we'd delete them :)

    Report: Desktop website, not mobile, should be the priority

    You know how I always talk about "update your content" - well, here's a prime example of how you can update content :) I took the info that @CanSpace offered and added more content to the article and stats to back up the claims. You can jump to the new section via this link...

    Report: Desktop website, not mobile, should be the priority

    Your desktop version plays a very limited role. The entire focus of Google's crawls are on mobile. You can read in an article I wrote here: https://www.bigredseo.com/mobile-first-indexing-rollout-complete/ There's a link to this announcement from Google which details further the nuances of...

    Help spread the good word!

    I'll give it a few days and post a review - I don't want too many reviews too fast and potentially getting flagged. But good for you for taking action on this!

    Report: Desktop website, not mobile, should be the priority

    If your website, or product, is a research-type product (comparison or otherwise), desktop usually outperforms mobile. However, Google ONLY uses the mobile version of your site for ranking. So if you hide certain things on mobile, or the speed is slow, it will affect the rankings of search...

    Recommendations on speeding up a WordPress Site

    One key question is; what is the speed of your website now? Is it your home page having issues, or an internet page? Where is your target audience and does it load fast from their location? Speed is all good and well, but if you're at 95% optimization score, squeezing the juce to get to 96%...
