Are You Intimidated by Search Engine Optimization?

March 25, 2016 By Terry Green

Is your WordPress website set up for SEO? Or does the mere thought of the term “SEO” or “search engine optimization” make your head spin or want to pop? I’m not talking about the type of SEO companies promote promising to get you on the first page of Google. I’m talking simple, but effective SEO that will improve your results in Google based on keywords, your company name … that sort of thing. Depending on your industry, the first page of Google simply might not be a realistic goal. At least not to get there and stay there. Improved results on Google, however, IS a realistic goal; and it’s not that difficult to achieve.

Have you been the victim of WordPress vulnerabilities?

If not, then you must be doing something right! One of those “right” things could very well be that you’ve been keeping WordPress and all of your plugins up-to-date.

How to Stay on Top of Your Content with an Editorial Calendar!

December 10, 2015 By Terry Green

When you’re trying to pump out blog posts with great content on a consistent basis, you can sometimes get caught up in the shuffle and end up scrunched over your computer in the middle of the night before the post is due trying to come up with a topic that works. Or, you might duplicate a topic you’ve just covered a couple of weeks ago; or worse yet … completely forget to write the post and end up with a big goose egg when you look at your blog the next morning. We’ve all been there … at least I have, and it’s not fun. So what do we do?

Can Your Content Be Easily Shared?

UPDATE: Due to many, many issues with Social Warfare since they updated to 3.0, and the subsequent hack and vulnerability issue in March 2019, we are no longer using the Social Warfare plugin. We have switched to Social Pug! Here is a link to my newsletter published on 3/22/19 regarding the issues and switch!!

The plugin was created to provide lightning fast, highly responsive social share buttons for WordPress users. BUT, in addition to providing an easy way for your readers to share your content while providing social proof at the same time, it also offers a few perks that are definitely worth taking a look at.
