We Analyzed BlueHost (And This Is What We Learned)

Can’t decide if You should sign up for BlueHost?  Powering over 2 million websites worldwide, they must be delivering performance. Here’s a detailed, helpful review for You, on BlueHost. 

Bluehost is a recognized brand name in bargain web hosting. By doing a large volume of business they’re able to offer steep price discounts.

In addition to offering a full range of web hosting services, Bluehost provides marketing training, SEO services, social media marketing, content creation services, graphic design services and many more valuable services to grow traffic for your site.

About BlueHost

Bluehost is a web hosting company owned by Endurance International Group. Founded by Matt Heaton and Danny Ashworth, it is one of the 20 largest web hosts, collectively hosting well over 2 million domains. The company operates its servers in-house in a 50,000 square feet facility in Orem, Utah. Bluehost employs over 750 people in its Utah facility.

What makes BlueHost shine?

BlueHost provides nearly every web hosting service that you could possibly need including advanced hosting like VPS, dedicated server, and managed WordPress hosting.

The managed part means they handle the technical stuff, such as keeping the WordPress plugins updated for you, updating the core, handling security, and optimizing performance.

Affordable Results

The good news is that some critical digital marketing services are delivered at bargain costs. That’s a core part of Bluehost’s strategy.

BlueHost Services Checklist:

Websites: You can use their easy DIY site builder to create your own or you can get their design geeks to build a site for you.

SEO, advertising, social media marketing, and local business visibility: Bluehost provides professional marketing services, including creating content for your site. You can get monthly consultations with a marketing professional. And they measure progress so you can see your ROI.

Domains, email, and helpful tutorials: Including how-to’s on website management, hosting, and marketing topics.

Additionally, Bluehost boasts of excellent uptime, a clean intuitive control panel (called cPanel) that allows you to create attractive and functional pages for your business.

So, if you have a business website, or need one, Bluehost is a powerful, seamless web host that’s worth checking out. 

Hosting Modes, Plans and Features

They come with a wide range of features including pre-installed CMS, plug-in updates, enhanced cPanel, CDN, automatic site backups, among others.

Bluehost states that these WordPress plans are “managed” hosting, adding “our users have SSH access to the virtual instances. Our support technicians ensure that the servers are online and available to the user at all times.”

Bluehost provides 24/7/365 customer support, including assisting with WordPress website launches.

You can also purchase professional services such as:

Graphic design of flyers, posters, brands, and more

Website technical work like PayPal integration, blog set up, adding Google Analytics or a map to your site, etc.

Performance and Uptime

While there are a few complaints from users about several server outages and a server team that is slow to respond, a great number of Bluehost users claim that the company has solid server performance.

According to these users, Bluehost scores a 99.99% uptime on average and occasionally outdoes itself to deliver a 100% uptime. The company itself also allows you to cancel your hosting agreements because of downtime without having to pay any cancellation fees.

Our tests indicate that last year Bluehost had an average uptime of 99.97%, which is excellent.

Site Loading Speed

Bluehost also provides good page load times. Last year, they had an excellent 422 ms page load speed with a static website using their Basic shared hosting plan. This year, we installed WordPress and the page load speed has increased to a still respectable 650 ms. This does, however, indicate that if you have a computationally demanding site, you may want to upgrade to a more advanced Pro plan that offers high-performance servers.

Cloudflare CDN

Fast page load times are important for everyone, especially for e-commerce owners. Slow pages are a major contributor to high bounce rates, low conversion rates, and loss of profits. That is where Cloudflare comes in.

Bluehost packages come with Cloudflare integration. Cloudflare is a content delivery network (CDN), or a network of servers that store cached versions of your website.

When someone navigates to your website, their browser receives content from the CDN point closest to them, reducing the amount of time it takes for the data to travel (shorter distance = shorter travel time).

All of Bluehost’s hosting plans come with a free domain.

Money-Back Guarantee

Bluehost offers a 30-day money-back guarantee. It’s vital that you read all terms and conditions because this is not straightforward. When you first sign up, you’ll get a promotional hosting price. But the promotional price only applies to the first term. Then it changes back to the regular pricing.

No Questions Asked

If you cancel within 30 days of joining, you get a 100% refund. If, however, you decide to cancel after that, you’ll only receive a pro-rata rate for what’s left on the term.

The money-back-guarantee only applies to the hosting plans. It does not cover most add-on products, including domains (see below).

Your account has no terms that you commit to following. There are no other penalties or hidden costs if you need to cancel your plan early.

Only Domain Fees are Not Refundable

You may get a free domain name with your hosting. If you cancel the hosting, you’ll be charged for it. But you will still own the domain name and be able to do with it as you please. After the obligatory lockdown period, you can transfer it. It remains yours as long as you keep renewing it.

Summary

Bluehost makes it convenient to get a website up and running, has an easy-to-use control panel interface that’s ideal for beginners, features a wide array of great features, is generally fast, has reliable servers, and has some pleasantly appealing security features for a budget-friendly web host.

The digital marketing services it offers are big advantages for small businesses. Visit Bluehost.

RECENT NEWS, RESOURCES & STUDIES, September 2019

Welcome to my latest summary of recent news, resources & studies including search, analytics, content marketing, social media & ecommerce! This covers articles I came across in the past 5 weeks, although some may be older than that.

I am still working on scheduling enough time to post these every 10 days or so, but lately luck is just not on my side. Writing this elsewhere then cutting & pasting it here is creating some significant formatting issues, so if you find any errors or broken links, please let me know. 

Are there types of news you would like to see here?  Leave a comment below, email me through my website, or send me a message on Twitter.

TOP NEWS & ARTICLES 

Etsy introduced Etsy Ads at the end of August; I covered it on my blog. Some people are seeing decent returns, but many are not. I started a forum thread here for continuing discussion. 

A day later, Amazon announced it has waived their $40 a month shop fee for Handmade by Amazon shops. See the pinned post on their Facebook page. 

A large study of click-through-rates (CTR) on Google reveals that the top link gets over 30% of the clicks, titles with questions get 14% more clicks than those without, and moving up one slot in the results leads to more clicks, unless you move from 10th to 9th. They cite Etsy’s study of titles & CTR (which showed that shorter titles get more clicks, something that this study also found).

Trend watch: a suggestion that Americans can avoid most of the tariff pain in the pocketbook by buying used clothing & other items. “Secondhand and vintage is no longer synonymous with a dusty pile of outdated sweaters in the corner of a church basement, or a yearly rummage sale. Online resale, including high-end designer items, is booming, thanks to start-ups like The RealReal, Depop, Poshmark, eBay, and Etsy. It’s possible to fill your entire closet this way”. Pre-owned & rented clothing also makes fans of sustainability happy. 

Also, “grandmillennials” are a thing. 

ETSY NEWS 

Etsy US searches often now have a full first page of items that ship free or have the $35 free shipping guarantee, as of September 6 (although they were testing it earlier than that.) I was seeing the rare exception, beyond searches that have fewer than 48 items shipping free, but it wasn’t clear if these are tests or personalization. Then on September 21, we started seeing many items with shipping charges on the first page of even very large results, & most smaller results didn’t give much if any priority to free shipping at all. There has been no statement from Etsy, so your guess is as good as mine ...

In the meantime, they’ve begun promoting free shipping to buyers, which has led to some media coverage. Some note that the timing is good, since most US holiday purchases online in the past several years have included free shipping. 

There is a new chapter in the Ultimate Guide To Etsy Search, involving attributes. The accompanying podcast with Etsy’s head taxonomist [transcript with links to the podcast] is quite interesting. She says that one of the reasons that some attributes haven’t shown up yet as search filters is that not enough sellers have applied them to listings. “If we have 100,000 items in the search results and a buyer uses a filter, and that filter causes the results to return just 20 items, that makes it seem broken. The buyer no longer trusts the results. If only 20% of sellers fill out an attribute, showing a filter based on that attribute to buyers isn’t going to be helpful because such a drastic reduction in results makes them lose confidence in those search results. We have to wait until a large number of sellers fill out that data to show it to buyers as a filter. When we do, sellers who have filled out that attribute show in those filtered search results. Sellers who haven’t, don’t.” Also, “[w]e know that shoppers who interact with these filters tend to buy more expensive items.” And, there aren’t separate jewellery attributes for “gold”, “gold-filled” & “gold-plated” because “[m]any jewelry buyers don’t have your experience and don’t know the huge difference between these things.”

The new commercials were launched earlier this month; you can check them all out here, and here is some media coverage. Some analysts think this is a good thing for the stock. 

Vox published  a review of Etsy’s latest free shipping push, in contrast with its history. [I am sure most of you have seen that, but if not, it is a good read!] “Silverman doesn’t like the words “handmade” or “craft” because they “don’t communicate anything to buyers about when to think of Etsy.” he says now. Nobody wakes up thinking, “Gosh, I need to buy something handmade today,” he tells me, which may be true but I rarely wake up thinking I need to buy anything at all, and more commonly wake up in horror because I’ve already bought way too much. “You need to furnish your apartment. You need to prepare for a party. You need to find a gift for a friend. You need a dress. Handmade is not the value proposition — unique, personalized, expresses your sense of identity, those are things that speak to buyers.” [emphasis added]  Also, apparently Etsy founder Rob Kalin “didn’t know what seed funding was when he took it”  😮

The new tool for creating country-specific sales is finally out. You still can’t create the equivalent of the $35 free shipping guarantee for countries other than the US, however, which makes this pretty useless for people wanting to offer free shipping in the US and to their own country. The only way to come close is to set a 30 day free shipping sale to your own country, but it won’t show up in search (unless people filter for free shipping) or get the Canadian search boost for items that ship free, and you still need to renew it every 30 days. In short, Etsy is telling us to overcharge our customers in other countries with no way to offer them the same deals Americans are getting.

Sellers can now use Etsy Labels for USPS First Class letters & flats. 

Holiday tips continue to roll out: here are some ideas for running holiday sales and promotions on Etsy.

Advanced content on machine learning: Etsy is employing its data on styles to serve up personalized recommendations, including the “Our Picks for You” section on the home page. The purchase and favouriting rates are part of what gets shown. They’ve discovered that some styles are more popular are different times of the year. 

For those of you who think Etsy doesn’t spend enough on advertising, they are actually buying spots on tv shows now, including this Las Vegas morning show. [video]

SEO: GOOGLE & OTHER SEARCH ENGINES 

Sad to report that Keywords Everywhere is becoming a paid tool starting October 1st (although it may take longer to roll out to your account). https://keywordseverywhere.com/news.html  They need to do this because they were being scraped by bots, which was affecting user experience & costing them a lot of time and money.  Fortunately, it is still going to be very cheap - 10,000 keywords for $1 USD, purchased ahead of time as credits. They say that the average user will spend less than $2 a month, & I suspect that the average Etsy user will spend less. Once your account moves to a paid one, you will no longer see the search volume, cost per click & competition numbers under search terms until you buy credits, although the "related keywords" & "people also search" sections will still show up on the right side of Google search.  I usually do not recommend any paid tools, but I do think this will still be worth every penny, especially if you remember to turn it off when shopping instead of researching! Every comparable paid tool costs way more than this. And despite the rush of attention since their announcement, I still received a personal reply to my email within 24 hours. 

You know how I always talk about nofollow links? They still exist, but Google has expanded their link attribution codes to include “sponsored” &  "ugc" (user generated content), and all might be crawled at any point after March 1, 2020. Moz did a top level explanation, and here is Google’s (shorter) summary. But it may not really matter much to the average site. 

Want to rank well on Google and other search engines? Create “complete content.”  

A followup on last edition’s discussion of canonical URLs - Google gets the final say. [video]

Google is now releasing monthly videos of their search news; first one is here. 

Some of you will remember Moz’s Whiteboard Friday series on learning SEO in one hour. They’ve now compiled all 6 videos in one place. 

And if you want to learn the basics of link building quickly, Moz has a short version of that chapter from their Beginner’s Guide to SEO. 

If you are afraid you are missing some SEO rules on your top pages, check out this complete checklist for on-page SEO. 

There are tons of SEO tools for Wordpress; here are 15 of the best. 

Many people will find your blog through search engines, so make sure you use keywords in your blog posts. 

If you have a website, check out 16 things that can harm your search engine rankings [semi-advanced in part, some points are discussing coding]

Success on YouTube involves SEO, something I find many users forget.

Mostly advanced: reminder that as of September 1, you can’t use robots.txt to tell Google not to index pages or sites. 

Advanced content for website developers: you need to make sure the site is ready for SEO work. 

There are always more Google updates; this one is still rolling out, and was confirmed by Google, but very few details were given. Sistrix did the first comprehensive analysis, although it is still early, and health and media sites seem to be the most dramatically affected. 

CONTENT MARKETING & SOCIAL MEDIA (includes blogging & emails) 

Marketing emails need to be carefully designed for success. Everything from the layout to the “preheader” matters. 

If you have content on one medium that is doing well for you, it’s time to “repurpose” it for different platforms. 

Infographics are very popular in content marketing; here’s how to make one, with 15 free templates.

Some Instagram posts do better than others; here’s why. Among other study findings, “smaller profiles which use more hashtags actually do see better engagement rates per post.”

If you aren’t getting much interaction on Instagram, you could be “shadowbanned.” There are ways to avoid that happening, and ways to fix it when it does. 

“Content factories” are a big part of Instagram traffic. Maybe Facebook should crack down on this? 

Pinterest is combining image recognition visual search with Shoppable Pins. 

Facebook is considering hiding the like counts on News Feed posts, as Instagram is testing in 7 countries right now. “The idea is to prevent users from destructively comparing themselves to others and possibly feeling inadequate if their posts don’t get as many Likes. It could also stop users from deleting posts they think aren’t getting enough Likes or not sharing in the first place.”

Video app TikTok can be confusing, so here is a step-by-step guide for beginners. And here’s a podcast [with text] on the basics. 

Twitter chats are a great way to attract interest in your business.

ONLINE ADVERTISING (SEARCH ENGINES, SOCIAL MEDIA, & OTHERS) 

Facebook is testing new shopping ads, but they are only available to small groups at the moment: checkout from the Facebook app, and turning Instagram shopping posts into ads. Here’s more on the latter. 

Snapchat now has longer ads and different formats. 

I see a lot of questions on what you can advertise on various platforms; here’s a good summary of items/topics prohibited on major sites. 

Since so many sellers are interested in other types of advertising right now, here are a few primers, most of which I have posted here before: Setting up Google Shopping for your website Instagram Sponsored Posts How to beat Facebook’s ad algorithm Setting up Pinterest ads

STATS, DATA, OTHER TRACKING 

Have Google Analytics set up on your website but don’t know how to use it? Here are some common features [text and video] you may want to take advantage of. Note that the part about setting it up doesn’t apply to most marketplaces and many website builders, which have a more simplified set up, as Etsy does. 

The old Google Search Console (formerly Google Webmaster Tools) is now almost entirely converted to the new version. Expect all of the old reports to be moved to the new version soon. 

ECOMMERCE NEWS, IDEAS, TRENDS 

There’s new evidence that Amazon has skewed its search algorithm to favour its own products & third-party products that make Amazon the most money. ”Executives from Amazon’s retail divisions have frequently pressured the engineers at A9 to surface their products higher in search results, people familiar with the discussions said.” In case that WSJ article goes back behind a paywall, here is some news coverage of it. “Instead of adding profitability into the algorithm itself, Amazon changed the algorithm to prioritize factors that correlate with profitability, the article said.” Amazon denies this, of course. 

Despite the legal agreement in Germany, Amazon is still suspending accounts without 30 days notice. 

Want to use cash to pay for online purchases? Amazon is now offering that option in the US. 

eBay listings now default to 1-day handling; if you ship slower than that, make sure to remember to change the default on each new listing you make. 

eBay managed payments (the equivalent of Etsy Payments) are now available in Germany. 

A review of major shipping trends in ecommerce notes that “[t]he accelerated supply chain is putting small sellers at a crossroads regarding if they can afford to take a hit on margins” when discussing Etsy’s free shipping push. 

BUSINESS & CONSUMER STUDIES, STATS & REPORTS; SOCIOLOGY & PSYCHOLOGY, CUSTOMER SERVICE 

Over ⅓ of US adults have bought something on social media, over 50% of 18-34 year olds are in that group. Far fewer had used visual search or virtual reality. 

More people are shopping online late at night; women are more likely to do it, but men spend more when they do. [I’ve noticed this trend on my site and Etsy shop for a few years now,compared to when I first started selling in 2008.]

The majority of shoppers worldwide who are online use videos to make some purchase decisions, as shopping lists, how-to research, and to check reviews. 

Gen Z (the generation after millennials) is more concerned about their health than the the previous 2 generations, and sometimes avoid the stresses of social media by shopping in brick & mortar stores. “About two-thirds (67%) of Gen Z prefer products made with ingredients they can understand, and tend to buy products in health and wellness categories more frequently than other generations. On environmental issues, 65% said they prefer simple packaging and 58% said they want eco-friendly packaging. Half of the group seeks products that are locally sourced or made, and 57% are seeking products that are environmentally sustainable, but fewer are willing to pay a premium price for them.”

For the 2019 holiday season, “65% of holiday shoppers will use a mobile device to shop, and 65% will make an online purchase via mobile.”

How do different industries get their online traffic? Google sends sites 8 times more traffic than all social media sites combined, and Facebook drives nearly ⅔ of all visits from social media. Instagram is responsible for less than 1%, while Twitter tops 10%. The author notes that “faster-growing social networks like Instagram, Snapchat and TikTok are designed from the ground up in a way that makes it difficult to drive traffic to external sites.”

MISCELLANEOUS (including humour) 

Google is working on letting you search your Google Photos for text; it seems to be using AI to identify & store the text in your screenshots and other images. It’s interesting technology that will likely be used in many ways, including search engines, if it works well. 

If you like convo snippets on Etsy, here’s a tool that will make them possible in many more places. 

Need a photo editor that works on mobile? Here’s a list of 12, most of which are free or cost only $1 USD. 

This one simple trick makes everything faster and easier. 

Stuff that probably shouldn’t taste like pumpkin spice. [humour]

[directwordpressnulled]

Launching a new WordPress website is exciting and fulfilling and if we’re honest, more than a bit stressful. Even with an easy to follow website pre-launch checklist. But the work is not yet over.Even if you have a top-notch quality control process, there are a few issues that are difficult to detect before launching a new website. Below are the 5 most common issues that occur on WordPress sites after the site goes live, and tips on how to fix them quickly.1. Spam Submissions on Contact FormsIt’s difficult to determine what level of spam protection is needed before a website goes live.  Spam – whether unwanted or downright harmful – is so widespread on the web these days that it can be hard to avoid completely, and it’s very common for a website owner to be inundated with spam form submissions shortly after launch.There are 2 common ways to battle spot bots: honeypots and captchas. Honeypots refers to the method of adding a field to a form that is hidden to users but that bots will fill out. For WordPress sites, there are plenty of popular form plugins like Gravity Forms and Contact Form 7 that offer simple steps to enable honeypots.Another option is to add a captcha to a form which requires a user to complete a little puzzle to prove they aren’t a robot. Captcha options have improved over the years and Google recaptcha now offers an invisible captcha with different settings. Some websites may require both honeypots and a captcha to reduce a high volume of submissions (luckily there are a variety of anti-spam plugins available).2. Slow Performance Due to Hosting ConfigurationPerformance has been a critical focus for every WordPress site ever since mobile page speed became a Google ranking factor in 2018. Poor page load times and downtime can have a far-reaching negative impact on a new website, but there are several steps you can take to mitigate any potential harm.Start by running preliminary speed and performance tests while redesigning a website on a production server. These initial tests can take the edge off any future issues, but post-launch tests will yield the most accurate results, especially when it comes to high-traffic websites.If you see slow page load times, evaluate the hosting configuration first. Is the website on a shared hosting server with limited resources? Can the server handle the volume of traffic?Since most web designers and developers follow best practices for optimizing images, you typically won’t find image optimization as a top performance culprit on a new site.Most performance tests will break down the server response time, and this metric can help pinpoint whether you need to change hosting setups or services. In addition to performance, you may want to test an uptime monitoring system for the first 30 days after launch.3. Indexing Errors with Google Search ConsoleIndexing problems often occur with new websites, especially for sites with major changes to the URL structure and numerous redirects. Google Search Console is a great tool to find indexing errors.Within Google Search Console, review the Index Coverage Report and look at the troubleshoot section for any errors. Here are some of the most common error messages that may occur after launching a new website:Pages Are Blocked by robots.txtPage marked no indexPage has a crawl issueSubmitted URL is soft 404Submitted URL is 404For any errors related to a robots.txt or no index setting, always double check that the general reading setting in the WordPress site for “discourage search engines from indexing this site” has been unchecked after launch. This can be a simple yet significant mistake for a new website.For specific page URLs marked as no index, you’ll need to review the website settings and whether certain pages need to remain no index or be adjusted. A crawl issue in the Index Coverage Report can be harder to resolve. The URL inspection tool in Google Search Console is the best way to gather more data on what may be causing the issue.If any 404 errors have been detected, it’s critical to address these as soon as possible. Having numerous 404 errors can hurt existing website rankings. Beyond these common error messages, Google Search Console may reveal additional data such as mobility errors and performance reviews that can also be helpful to evaluate post-launch.4. Incorrect Featured Image for Social SharingLaunching a new website is an amazing marketing opportunity and of course, you’ll want to share the beautiful new site on social media and various marketing channels.Before you or anyone hits the share button, check the featured image for the home page. Test sharing the website URL on a social media platform and see what featured image and text shows up for the URL.If you haven’t reviewed the social sharing settings, it’s very common for a platform like Facebook to pull a random image from the home page, turning your exciting post into a disappointing preview of the new website.There are several ways to adjust these settings. Facebook and several platforms use open graph protocol. You can use the Facebook open graph debugging tool to see the current information that the platform is using when the home page URL is shared. After adjusting the open graph protocol on your home page, you can use the debugging tool to clear the Facebook cache for the URL.The Yoast SEO is another helpful tool for social sharing settings. The free plugin includes a social media section for Facebook and Twitter. Since these are 2 of the main social media platforms, fixing the settings for these platforms will often ensure that the website looks great when shared on other ones. Or you can use these tips to create shareable images for social media (manually or with the help of a plugin).5. Missing or Incorrect Tracking CodesMost analytics platforms and advertising campaigns rely on tracking codes to collect data on your website. When redesigning an existing website, you may not realize or remember that these tracking codes were set up in the past and may forget to move them over to the new website.You may be employing several marketing campaigns to coincide with the launch of the new site. Having the incorrect tracking codes or forgetting to add them can cause several issues, including a major lapse in data collection right when you need it the most.If you are using Google Tag Manager to handle all your tracking, you’ll often have the Google Tag code on the site and all of the additional tracking codes within the tag manager.

eCommerce website launch Checklist

There are thousands of ecommerce businesses that provide a fantastic purchasing experience in terms of both product quality and website performance. Meanwhile, with an e-commerce, customer experience is still crucial; therefore, before launching, ensure that your platform completely provides customers with the values they expect.

Increase the level of security: When getting ready to build a WordPress website, security should be your first consideration. There are a variety of WordPress security tools available that address all areas of website security. Sucuri, iThemes Security, and MalCare are just a few of the plugins that can help secure your hard work from dishonest individuals that want to ruin your day.

Set up an SEO Plugin: Consider a website that is well-designed, lists all of your products and services, and has an appealing design to entice visitors. Sounds great? What if, however, this website does not receive enough traffic or is not found? If a website is made search engine friendly, search engines such as Google will send thousands of people to it.

Make a list of all Permalinks: WordPress makes it simple to create more memorable URLs for your pages. You can use one of the pre-made constructions or create something entirely new. As a result, it's critical to double-check everything before publishing your website.

Check Browser Compatibility: It might be difficult to ensure that your website works well in as many browsers as possible, but with the help of services like Browser-shots, you can get a good indication of how your hard work will be seen by the rest of the world.

Inspect Your Website on a Variety of Devices: When it comes to cross-browser testing, keep in mind that your website will most likely be seen on a variety of devices. Browsershots, for example, can be quite valuable because it generates and displays images of how a website appears in various browsers and devices.

Make sure your grammar and spelling are correct: While there are software programmer that can assist you with your spelling and punctuation, nothing beats the human eye. Make sure you proofread your website material for any typos or omissions. Nothing makes a website look worse than a poorly written page, especially if you're a company trying to offer a product or service.

Examine all of the forms on the website: Nothing irritates a user more than filling out a form on your website and never receiving a response! Take a few moments before launching your website to verify all of the forms to confirm they are configured correctly and are being delivered to the correct email address.

Have Website Manager:

Ecommerce website administration is a full-time job, so engage an ecommerce website manager before you start your store. If you can't afford an in-house website manager, you may hire an outsource ecommerce website management service to handle your ecommerce store's day-to-day tasks.

Handy Web Development Checklists that every Team must refer to!

Developing a fully functional website for your enterprise is a herculean task as the website development process is time-consuming and loaded with complexities. It involves various stages: creating the web design, website development, website project management, testing, deployment and maintenance post-deployment. Each stage needs to be executed skillfully to avoid any glitches in the operational system. Additionally, the project has to be delivered within the set timeline. Therefore, chances of lapses are likely; particularly if your team lacks experience or is in a hurry to meet deadlines.

To fulfill these challenging website development requirements, every web development team should maintain a checklist of the essential tasks, to avoid any misses. This blog enlists the key web development checklists that your team needs to refer to; for architecting a flawless web application or website. These checklists have been created by consolidating inputs from the doyens of the software sector and will help a Web App Development Company to make sure that crucial action items are not missed.

But, before we proceed, take a glance at what kind of checklists are required.

Checks for Web Development

Every web app development project must carry out the following validations during website development. Given below are the kinds of checklists that are essential.

Design, UX and SEO checks

Optimize your website for all kinds of devices such as mobiles, tablets, laptops and desktops.

Eliminate irrelevant images.

It is important to check whether the UX design has been executed as per the set standards.

Make sure your website doesn’t contain validation errors and broken links. Broken links are the links that show an error or the “page not found” message when clicked and as such adversely affect the User Experience as well as the website’s SEO score. 

Include meta tags like title and description, as they improve the website’s ranking and boost the SEO score.

Readability checks

Cross-check the website content for any possible spelling or grammatical errors prior to the website’s live launch.

Ensure that your website content is unique and plagiarism-free.

You need to adjust the font style so that that your web page is easy to read and scan; as this aspect is a game-changer in the matter of user retention. 

Functionality and Performance checks

Check the visual appearance and loading speed of your images. In case they appear blurred or are slow to load; resolve this problem by optimizing the image-size. Optimization of images boosts the performance and also improves the search engine ranking.

Examine the loading time of your website. If the loading is more than 4 sec, get the issue resolved, otherwise, it may have adverse effects on your viewership.

Check your website’s performance and rendering on trending browsers like Chrome, Safari, Mozilla, Internet Explorer, Opera, etc.

Always turn on the caching of your website. The reason is caching not only optimizes the speed of a webpage but also reduces the server-load by minimizing lengthy scripts like JavaScript and CSS. A cache plugin called ‘W3 Total Cache’ can be easily installed if you are using WordPress to develop the website.

Ensure that all the links of your web page are functional and it enables effortless navigation.

Security checks

Secured Socket Layer (SSL): An SSL certificate is a must-have if your website collects sensitive user data such as personal details or banking/ credit card particulars.

An anti-malware Plugin: Employing anti-malware plugins helps to effectively resolve malware threats and hence protect a website from viruses as well as malware attacks.

Handy Checklists for Web Design

Here are some ready-made Web development checklists recommended for your team.

Checklists related to an app’s pre-launch and post-launch 

The Essential Pre-launch Checklist for Your Website includes functionality, design elements, cross-browser testing, content editing, and SEO.

Website Launch Checklist by Glasgow developer provides tools for checking actions after they are completed, greys out items that are not applicable, and resets the checklist to make it ready for the next project. It includes editing content, testing links, navigation usability, validating HTML and CSS, GDPR compliance, minifying styles and scripts, infrastructure, communication, compatibility, analytics, performance, accessibility, etc. 

The Essential Launch Checklist for Web Apps and Mobile Apps by Ben Cheng allows product managers to test the security, performance level, compatibility, and broken links in applications.

Checklists on Front-end performance

A front-end Deployment Checklist by Fred Rocha provides guidance on validating the markup; as well as checking the performance, the console for JavaScript, etc.

The Front-end Checklist by David Dias is a useful digital interactive tool. One has to enter the project’s URL to get a full report on areas like JavaScript, HTML, CSS, head, images, web fonts, SEO, accessibility and performance. This check is an exhaustive one that classifies items based on low, medium or high priority requirements. 

Front-end Performance Checklist 2020 by Vitaly Friedman guides on How to get ready on planning and metrics, how to set realistic goals, defining the environment and assets, build and delivery optimizations, monitoring and testing, etc.

Checklists pertaining to the backend server and database security

Back-end Best Practices offers stack-agonistic guidance on the best available practices concerning different back-end architectures like app monitoring, security, data storage solutions, server environments, etc. It also offers a responsibility checklist for organizing the web design task list for the team and a release-checklist required during the website’s launch.

Database Testing Checklist provides checklist items regarding field validation, stored procedures, security, database integrity, constraints, transactions, etc.

Checklists on Cross-browser testing

Cross-browser Testing Checklist Before Going Live offers testing related to element alignment, font rendering, API connections, etc.

Cross-browser Testing Checklist offers all items required for testing on various browsers and operating systems.

Final Verdict: 

Thus, every web developer as well as web development company must have comprehensive knowledge about these essential checklists for architecting a flawless and universally acceptable website. To know more on why opt for web app development, click here.

Prevent Search Engine Indexing Your WordPress Site Or At Least Discourage Indexing | WP Learning Lab

There’s only one reason you would want to discourage indexing of your website and that is because it’s in development.

If you have content that you want to keep private, simply discouraging search engines from finding it won’t do. For that sort of content you’ll want to put it behind a login.

Another common myth is that if you don’t generate a sitemap for your website then it won’t be indexed.

Not so.

I’ve acquired well over 200 domain names over the past few years and I can tell you when I check the logs, search engines are there almost immediately looking for content to index.

It’s true.

Domain name registrars notify search engines a domain name has been bought and that a website should be there soon. So the search engines come sniffing.

Again, the only reason to discourage search engines from indexing your is during development.

This does not include major website updates. Once your site goes live you could turn on maintenance mode to roll out updates, but never discourage indexing for updates.

If you go the Reading Settings you will find the last option on that page is Search Engine Visibility. If you check the box beside that option and click save you will be discouraging the indexing of your site.

The reason I say discourage is because it’s up to search engines to honor your request.

It’s true.

Even though you tell them you don’t want your site indexed sometimes it finds its way into the index.

The only true way to block search engines is the require a login to access the site.

I hope this information helps you! If you have any questions leave a comment below or ping me @WPLearningLab on Twitter.

Checklist Before You Launch A Website:

Before you introduce visitors to your website, you need to take care of the following things:

Select A Website Builder – Once you are ready to launch a website, the first step that you need to make a decision is where you would like to build it. There are various website building platforms you can see in the online market. Each of these platforms has various templates, features, and design abilities. Before you select a website builder, consider your teams and your skill level. In case you have knowledge working with HTML, it is ideal that you opt for a platform that provides you with more flexibility to manually code a few site elements. But, if you are afresh to website design domain, it would take a considerable time of yours to work with HTML code, hence you should go in for a platform that provides you many drag-and-drop editors and pre-build templates.

Terry's Online Journey - Pre-Launch Week 2 Review

I have completed second week of my pre-launch setup plan for my new online business where I am going from broke to a full-time income in just 12 months. My intention was to spend 3 weeks in pre-launch and the progress so far appears to be on track.

If you are new to my project you can discover the background to it by reading the blog post 'The Journey Begins . . .' on my website.

You can catch up on what I completed in week 1 of pre-launch by reading this article.

This pre-launch period is pretty intensive and is taking most of the spare time I have outside of my full-time caring role I have for my partner Andie and also looking after her 12 year old son.

Completing the tasks needed to be able to launch, especially with the ambitious content distribution system I am setting up for both my blogging platforms and my social media platforms would not have been possible without my prior experience and knowledge.

If you want to follow in my footsteps, I suggest you allocate at least a full month for this type of setup, maybe double that if you are totally new to online business.

  Summarising My Progress

I summarise each week by focussing on the sub-projects I have listed in Yanado, my project planning tool :

The subprojects are the list on the left in the black area on this snapshot from last week.

In addition to Yanado, I am also using a whiteboard, split into 7 daily sections with my tasks written on strips of paper and tacked to it. This allows the plan to be micro-managed on a daily basis. 

This whiteboard provides a quick visual aid to my most pressing tasks and provides a flexible way to plan as I progress day by day.

Here is the whiteboard at the start of pre-launch week 3, ready for the coming week:

  If you compare it to last week's image, you will see a big drop in the number of scheduled tasks for this week. I am not sure if this signifies much as I don't use bigger pieces of paper for bigger tasks and I still have a few big tasks remaining.

You will notice I have planned to keep the end of the week relatively free just in case I need to catch up on a few of the tasks.

In the weekly review below, I will be posting Yanado screenshots for each subproject. These screenshots will show Yanado after I have completed my Monday morning review.

Here is a breakdown of what each of the 3 columns in Yanado means:

1) Pending - These are tasks yet to be scheduled

2) Doing - These are the tasks scheduled to be completed in the current week (week 2 in this case)

3) Done - These are the tasks I have completed in the previous week.

I will 'archive' all of the tasks in the 'Done' section once I have completed this review article. This will make the tasks disappear from this specific Yanado view and reduce the number of tasks remaining in the system. This will allow a weekly snapshot of progress.

The tasks currently in Yanado are for the pre-launch of my business only.

I had originally identified a total of 301 tasks within the preparation phase of my business by the end of week 1 and over the last week I have added another 36.  

In addition, I also have a new sub-section called 'Project 24 E-A-T or SEO'. This accounts for 30 of the new tasks.

  These were the key figures from my week 1 summary:

  Number of tasks at the beginning of the week 1: 253

New tasks added in week 1: 48

Tasks completed during week 1: 58

Tasks remaining at the start of week 2: 243

  These are the figures for last week (week 2):

  Number of tasks at the beginning of the week 2: 243

New tasks added in week 2: 36

Tasks completed during week 2: 74

Tasks remaining at the start of week 3: 205

  So out of the new total of 337 tasks for the set up of my business, I had completed 132 in 2 weeks. 

205 looks a daunting number of remaining tasks but as you will see from the screenshots of each section many of the tasks will be completed once my business has launched and out of the pre-launch phase.

In fact, some of these tasks will be easier to implement once I have content created and have traffic stats coming in from Google Analytics.

    .   .   .

  Here is a review of last week's progress for all 9 of the subproject sections in Yanado:

  Website Development

I managed to complete most of the tasks I set myself for week 2 in this section, plus several extra tasks I hadn't originally planned for week 2.

I managed to run through 5 of the SEO checklists I have from Madalin Tudose's 'The SEO Checklist' training course. Most of the tasks in these checklists I had already completed and it only took a couple of hours to complete the remaining ones. 

I also changed the look of the website by creating a new logo header, introducing a 2-column blog post listing to the category pages, and building out the side bar content.

You can see the current layout of the website in the image below:

  You can see I also added links in the side bar to my main social media accounts.

The target for the coming week is to get the last couple of pre-launch tasks completed. The other tasks are non-essential for pre-launch.

  Social Media & Citations

I had completed most of the tasks in this section in week 1, so not an abundance of activity here over the last week.

I created the Facebook group that was specific to my journey (of going from zero to a full-time income in 12 months) and added it to my social media automation tools so any relevant posts are scheduled to be posted there.

The idea behind this Facebook group, as opposed to my Facebook business page, is that this group will focus on my journey only and will not get cluttered by other irrelevant content.

A new task I identified and completed last week was to set up the schedule of social media posts from MissingLettr for each of my blog posts.

I had used this tool about 3 or 4 years ago for a client but it had changed a little in the interim. Nevertheless, I managed to schedule the posts for 2 or 3 blog posts.

MissingLettr schedules 9 posts to be posted to Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn over the coming 12 months for each blog article.  The time period between posts increases each time. This ensures more posts are scheduled at the start of the campaign than in the last 6 months.

It is a great tool to get people coming back to any evergreen blog posts you publish. You can also reschedule the campaign again anytime after the original 12 month period has completed. It's a great way to get your own relevant content frequently onto your social media pages.

Another new task I identified and completed in this section was to set up my Google website from within my Google My Business (GMB) account.

It is a fairly simple website using the information you enter into your GMB account and also using your GMB posts. It has the advantage of being a Google property, so it provides more authority to your business in the eyes of Google and can only help with your ranking.

You can see this website by clicking on this link.

All of the pre-launch tasks have now been completed in this subproject. TikTok can wait until I have time to learn how to use it effectively for marketing.

  Tools Set-Up

I didn't manage to complete anything on this section last week, but I did start pushing out social media posts about my blog articles using the scheduler in Publer.

As you can see, there are a few tasks building up in this subproject for the coming week. With the exception of possible the VideoDashboard setup, none of them are critical to be able to exit pre-launch and go live with my business.

  Project 24 Blog

Project 24 is a training course on blogging created by a company called Income School. It is my go-to training for everything blogging. The snapshot above is just part of the 60-step action plan that is set out in Project 24.  Not all of the steps are shown.

Last week I added/updated the Legal Pages to my blog. These I placed in a menu on the footer of my website along with the link to my 'Contact Us' page. They include pages such as the privacy policy, terms and conditions, cookie policy, and my affiliate disclosure for my website/business.

These legal pages are important, especially if you want to run ads on Facebook or Google. Google also sees them as being an important part of your website authority and they help build credibility for you and your website.

I reviewed my Wordpress settings as laid out in the Project 24 training and added a couple of WordPress plugins that will allow the placement of banner adverts on my website. I haven't set any banners up at this stage but they are part of my launch plan.

Over the coming week my main targets from the training course is to identify the keywords relevant to my business and build a list of at least 30 blog post topics for when my business launches. 

The other key project this week is to build my resource pages. These pages identify the tools, training, and equipment I use in my business so people can see how I am producing my blog posts, social posts, and building my website and montising my business.

Both of these subjects are not essential for pre-launch and could quite easily be categorised as post-launch tasks. So this subproject is already ready for launch.

  Project 24 YouTube

As per the blogging section above, this is part of the Income School Project 24 training. It too is broken into 60 steps.

As you can see, there was nothing completed last week and nothing is planned for this week.

This subproject is ready for my business launch, which is where my video content will be produced.

  Project 24 E-A-T for SEO

  This is a new subproject added last week. As you can probably gather, it is based around another training course from the Income School Project 24 training system.

E-A-T stands for Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness. It is becomimg more and more important for ranking, especially on Google who have been making noises about this for a couple of years or so.

The Project 24 course consists of 30 steps to build E-A-T on your website and help you rise up the Google rankings.

The majority of the steps are designed to be undertaken once you have completed the 60 steps from the main Project 24 blog training and have built a good library of content articles on your website, but there is no reason why many of the steps can not be undertaken in conjunction with that training.

Having reviewed the training I realised I had naturally completed some of the steps and a few others were fairly simple to complete.

None of the steps remaining are pre-launch tasks, so this subproject is ready for launch.

  Marketing

This subproject is more relevant after the business launch.

I had completed the only pre-launch step within this section in week 1 and this subproject is ready for launch.

  Affiliate Marketing

There was no progress on this section in week 2.

The 3 steps earmarked for this week could just as easy be classified as post-launch tasks, but my target was to have a marketing funnel built pre-launch.

It seemed sensible to build a funnel that I could montise using an affiliate program as opposed to just offering a list magnet that just added people to my newsletter email list.

This makes the funnel slightly more complex but it gives the possibility of getting my first affiliate commissions. It seemed worth the slightly extra effort.

I have much of the funnel built from the first week but I need to get everything working with my email autoresponder and test the process. I hope to complete this over the coming week.

This subproject is ready for launch.

  Content

  I published several blog posts last week with a total of 10,773 words.

It am quite proud of this achievement considering all the other tasks I completed.

One of the things I have learned from this flurry of blogging activity is that writing a blog post is roughly a only a third of the time of the full publishing process.

It takes the remaining two thirds of the time to undertake all of the following tasks:

Proof read the article

Source images and download, create, or screenshot them

Resize or crop images

Optimise images so they have smaller file sizes and load on the website faster

Add the images to the blog post

Add links to relevant articles on my website or external websites

Set up the SEO data, such as the title and meta desciption

Schedule the blog post for publioshing on my blog, Medium, and Tumblr

Ensure the blog post has been publish and looks correct, including testing any links

Create relevant social media posts and schedule them 

Set up MissingLettr for a 9-post social media campaign over a 12 month schedule

You may have noticed one of the blog posts I have scheduled to write this week is to cover this subject.

Originally I was going to write a document for myself to follow listing the steps needed to produce and publish a blog post. It would document things such as the image dimensions I use and the process go through, including the tools I use at each step of the way.

Then I thought it would be better as a blog post so anyone needing a guideline on writing a blog post can follow it too. Aren't I a generous guy?

I have a couple of other blog posts planned for this week too. The first one is the article I am  currently writing. The second article will detail my video content distribution system once I have completed the set up of it in the next couple of days.

  .   .   .

  So there you have it, a brief overview of my second week's work preparing my business for launch.

Assessing the work remaining, I have set my launch date for a week today.

I will officially be going live on Monday 5th October 2020.

By setting this date I will have had exactly 3 weeks in pre-launch as I originally planned.

There will also be 88 days left in 2020, so roughly meeting my requirement of having a 90-day plan to work from until the end of the year and having 12 months to build a full-time income before I reach my 60th birthday.

So, without delay, on to this weeks work . . .

Quality and speed of delivery are both important to us. Payment is part of the requirements needed to create the project timeline which defines the start date and finish dates of each stage of the web development cycle. Once we've received all requirements (intake forms, payment, content, access credentials, etc.), we can generate the project timeline within 24 hours. We highly recommend that all requirements are ready before payment as this helps our team complete the project within scope and the given timeline. The website design packages do not include hosting.
