Why No One Is Reading Your Blog Posts (And How To Change That)
We all know creating engaging content is THE number one way to build trust and authority for any brand.
Writing awesome blogs establishes you as a credible expert, helps you build a steady flow of WordPress clients and gives you the opportunity to educate and help your customers.
But most blogs written these days need some serious love.
With as many 10 million blog posts are published a day, it’s vital your content is rubbed and scrubbed into perfect shape.
In my presentation, I’ll show you to build your brand and boost your website’s profile with some seriously shareable content.

Goodbye Themes, Hello Elementor – Beyond Creating Basic Websites
How using a page builder helped me create websites, especially ones using custom fields, dynamic content and single page templates.
