How you should structure a FAQ page for SEO purposes

Aug 3, 2018

Whether you can gain any SEO benefits from a FAQ page really depends on the depth and scope of the questions and answers. For instance, if a business lists trivial questions such as What are your business hours? or What is your refund policy?, the probability of it being discovered through the search engines is slim. However, if a complex question has a thorough and detailed answer as it pertains to your business, there is a good chance that some search traffic can be gained.

Evaluating website performance with optimization and benchmarking tools

Jul 27, 2018

I would hope the very first thing that a web design company would do after finishing a site for a client is to run a speed test. It’s one thing to have an amazing looking site. It’s quite another to have that website load quickly and without any hiccups. As a designer, there has to be a balance between aesthetics, speed, and the needs of your client. Having a widget that affects loading time, for instance, should be taken into consideration. Is it necessary? Will it have value to your visitors?

The article outlines 4 steps that guide you in getting your website indexed by Google. The first step is to ensure that you are not blocking Google’s bot from crawling and indexing your website.

The Top 3 Best Backlink Checkers for Spying on Competitors

Jul 18, 2018

Getting links to your website is extremely important if you want to rank for mid-to-high volume keywords. Google has said that they are shifting away from using backlinks as the #1 metric in gauging popularity for a web page as it relates to a keyword. Truthfully, there has been no evidence that the power of high-quality backlinks has diminished even slightly. As Google sees it, a backlink is a vote of confidence in that website and/or page. The more quality backlinks that point to your site, the better chance of ranking for a particular keyword. I say quality because years...

Redirecting visitors to random blog posts in WordPress

Jul 5, 2018

While I understand the purpose for redirecting users to random posts. I’m not sure it is practical. The idea is for visitors to discover old posts so that content still has relevance. It make sense. However, it is no secret how most blog posts are found in the first place. Through organic searches of course.

Revolution Slider Background Videos Not Working in Chrome 67

Jun 28, 2018

While working on one of my niche websites yesterday I noticed that background videos embedded in revolution slider were not working. I hadn’t changed anything or made any new server configurations. The videos were simply not autoplaying. Two days ago everything was working fine. I’ve incorporated 12 or so videos into separate sliders across as many pages. It’s an important feature that I can’t afford to have broken. The only thing that displayed in place of the video was the youtube generated thumbnail (as selected for a cover in revolution slider). My immediate thought was that this was a youtube...

Google appears to have removed anonymous reviews for businesses

Jun 25, 2018

I consider the removal of anonymous reviews on Google to be a good thing. It won’t stop those who are determined to influence a business one way or another. A person can still create fake accounts and post reviews under a pseudonym. At least now extra steps must be taken in order to do. Fake online reviews have been a plague for some time now.

Moving an addon domain to its own account in WHM

Jun 21, 2018

I was actually unaware of this feature. cPanel’s Web Hosting Manager is a fantastic option for easily managing hosting accounts on your server. Creating a primary domain and then adding addon domains to that account allows you to organize and structure websites in groups with shared attributes. The most useful feature that I find by doing this is to have a staging domain to share with your clients before a site launches.

The best tools for measuring website speed and optimization

Jun 18, 2018

Google PageSpeed still provides very valuable data when it comes to optimization. However, as I’ve learned, it might not suit your visitors best to make sacrifices in order to achieve the best score. Render-blocking scripts and CSS minification might be better left alone. For me, FOUT (flash of unstyled text) and FOUC (flash of unstyled content) should absolutely be avoided. I’d rather have a few marks deducted on a score than compromise user experience. Google font swapping and content moving around during page load is both unsightly and distracting. In most cases, you may shave a little bit of time off but is it really worth it?

How to Create a Child Page in WordPress

Jun 13, 2018

If you’re new to WordPress it’s easy to dismiss page hierarchy. After all, the main concern is the content on the page. Not how it is structured. With the menu system, you don’t need to assign parent or child pages to create a sub-menu. However, for organizational purposes and even SEO benefits, it would be wise to build structure in your website.
