Description
Wordpress is a great site building tool but doesn't come with all of the features you need to create a vibrant, safe and search engine ready website. Fortunately, Wordpress was created in a special way, allowing third party programmers to create and integrate their own features in the form of Wordpress plugins.
The course covers my top 10 plugin recommendations, as well as some of the best innovative plugins I use on special projects.
The top 10 plugins will cover the important aspects of your site:
Elementor page builder.
Search engine optimization - get your site visible in the search engines.
Site security - stop hackers breaking into your website.
Comments Spam - how to stop spammers so you don't even see their rubbish.
Contact forms - giving your visitors a way to contact you.
Page load speed - making your site faster so pages load more quickly. Visitors love fast loading pages, and so do the search engines.
Image optimization.
Backups - How to backup your website so that you can restore it if anything goes wrong.
Free traffic by lettering visitors share your content to their social media accounts.
Related posts - to keep visitors on your site longer, and spread the link juice around your site with valuable internal links.
Besides these 10 essential plugins, I'll be including a dozen or so innovative plugins that I use on some websites. These plugins will help with a wide range of tasks from automated internal page linking, adding a Google map, a CSS visual editor for modifying your site design, visitor analytics, eCommerce, and even being able to hide or show Gutenberg blocks based on a wide range of specific, user-defined rules.
I have been building Wordpress websites for twenty years. During that time, I've refined my list of recommended plugins for features that all of my sites really need.
This course will help you install, activate and configure these must-have plugins on your own website, as well as make you aware of other exciting plugins that are available.
