Mon Dec 28 14:07:58 PST 2015

Most people think that Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is a thing to do once your website has been built. However, I beg to differ. It all starts with your domain name and stems down from there into your headings, page content and images. You should know beforehand what website keywords you are wanting your website to target before you even start writing content and the website gets launched. Today we are going to talk about how you can determine your keywords to help you focus your website content and ensure you get an overall picture of the type of content you are going to create and not end up repeating the same keywords for each page.     This is the fifth blog in the “How to Prepare to hire a web designer: blog series” If you have just joined me, maybe you would like to read the first blog

 About Remaintenance Service We are developers and designers that love working with WordPress. We found that almost every WordPress website suffers from the same problems, like: Outdated versions because of theme or plugin conflicts Lack of a maintained backup system No consistent checking of uptime or performance No protection against hackers and viruses Let’s face it: maintaining a WordPress website can be a hard and tricky job. It distracts website owners from running their own websites and in the end costs them heaps in lost revenue. Even most WordPress professionals find it a chore. That is why most maintenance contracts only include problem solving when you request it yourself. That makes no sense! You get a maintenance contract so you don’t have to worry about your website functioning correctly. Now you still have to look for the problems yourself. As web designers and developers ourselves, we developed techniques to make
