Install a set of must-have plugins for your WordPress site...

Plugins are to your WordPress site what apps are to your smartphone.

While you can certainly use your smartphone without installing anything extra on it, you would be missing out on a lot of cool functionality. It’s the same story with WordPress plugins. WordPress is functional out-of-the-box, but you can get a lot more out of it with the following plugins...

1. Yoast SEO – the most popular SEO plugin for WordPress; it will help your site rank better in Google.

2. Google Analytics for WordPress – integrates your website with Google Analytics.

3. Cache Enabler – makes your site load faster.

4. Wordfence Security – makes your website more secure.

5. UpdraftPlus – automatic backups to keep your content safe outside your server.

6. Optimole – optimizes the images on your site, reduces the amount of disk space they take up, and makes them load faster.

7. WPForms – lets you create good-looking contact forms; alternatively, you can try out Contact. Form 7

8. Revive Old Post – takes a random blog article from your site and posts it to your social media profiles automatically

For this reason, we sincerely recommend you update your website regularly....

If you just started your business or you are working on scaling it up to the next level, I hope you're setting scary goals for the rest of this year? 🤩⁠
⁠
I really, really want that for you. And I want you to KNOW that you can reach those goals!
⁠
The scarier the goals, the better. 👻⁠
⁠
So launch that website, film that video, create that product, or write that book! Whatever you're working on, you'll get so much satisfaction and fulfilment out of reaching your goal, whether it's a huge goal or a smaller one.⁠
⁠
The way I stay motivated? By checking things off of my todo list! Big things, especially. Needle-moving things.⁠
⁠
So stop scrolling, go set some goals, and attack them with full force! It will be worth it. Trust me. 😊⁠
⁠
⭐BONUS POINTS: You can keep track of them somewhere you'll be seeing every single day: a place Like your fridge, your mirror, on your room wall or your phone/desktop background!⭐⁠

Let's talk about WordPress for jussssst a second?💻⠀
⠀
If you’ve been thinking about moving your current site to WordPress or you’ve been thinking about building a new website, this post is for you.⠀
⠀
Here are the main reasons WordPress will benefit you over platforms like Wix, Weebly, and GoDaddy web builder:⠀
⠀
✅ WordPress let's you have SO much more control over how your site looks and functions. If you have a specific vision for your site, WordPress is never a bad idea... It's even the best idea. Most drag and drop platforms severely limit your customization options.⠀
⠀
💸 If other platforms do allow extended functionality, it’s often behind a paywal. You shouldn’t have to pay for additional functionality for your website - at least to a certain extent. With WordPress, there are thousands of free plugins that you can use to make your site do all kinds of fancy things for you. Most other platforms charge you for basic things like e-commerce functionality and access to analytics. I think that’s crazy.⠀
⠀
👯‍♀️ The WordPress community is so enormous and so supportive. Thousands of independent theme and plugin developers create new looks and functionality for WordPress every single day. WordPress enthusiasts publish dozens of blog posts and video tutorials for WordPress every week. If you’re feeling stuck on something, is here to help you out. You can also make use of Google.
⠀
I’ve heard a little bit here and there about how WordPress is less user-friendly than other platforms. It’s a matter of opinion, of course, so I can’t just sit here and tell you that’s not true... but it’s NOT TRUE!😬⠀
⠀
It’s like when you get a new phone and the interface is nothing like your old phone’s setup. You just have to get used to it little by little and maybe set aside a small amount of time to get to know your way around the interface.⠀
⠀
👩🏼‍💻That being said, I’m all for DIY-ing your website in a way that works for you. So if that means Squarespace or Wix, then go for it! But if you’re avoiding WordPress because you’ve heard it’s difficult, I just want you to know that it’s totally not - and there’s more help available for WordPress than any other platform!
