You may just start blogging, or you may build a website directly for business use. Either side has some experience. If you know WordPress, you will make some mistakes. Everyone in your situation does this. Errors usually happen to beginners, but also to experienced users. The fact is that everyone (for obvious reasons) likes to avoid it. WordPress has been used by millions of users worldwide, so you can learn from some common mistakes. Webcreate Me’s Viktor shares the following: The
1. choosing the wrong platform of WordPress is the biggest mistake. WordPress.com is more suitable for personal websites. Free and easy to make. Don’t worry about server setup, backups, updates, and more. Instead, WordPress. Org must purchase its own WordPress hosting and install WordPress here. With almost unlimited themes, WP plug-ins, and customizations, you can have complete control over the site, but you need to and manage it manually. WordPress Org to start a blog can save costs in the mobile process and make money immediately on the blog. But WordPress. Org for WordPress. You can learn more about all the advantages and disadvantages in the com guide. The
2. find thousands of advanced and free themes or plug-ins online, which rely on unknown developers. No matter how good some of them look, they must always go with established developers who have been approved by WordPress. Some of them may cost a few dollars, but they are paying for security, support, availability, and search engine rankings. If you want to use everything provided by unknown developers for free, you can not only spend time, but also spend money in the future. 3. although it is not always the best choice to spend money freely, you should have a vision of what the website actually needs. All options can be overwhelming, but to get started, you just need a domain name and web hosting. You may want to invest in design, but brand e-mail, 5-year registration, SSL, etc. may have invested too much at the beginning. If you need to pay for some plug-ins, make sure you do. Unnecessary plug-ins can complicate the installation of WordPress and wallets. The
4. if there is no backup, most hosting companies can perform automatic backup and restore the website for free, but not 100% in the technical world, so they must always keep their own copies. It’s not very complicated. As long as you set the backup schedule, the setup is complete. My personal favorite is vaultpress, but you can use the complete list of free and advanced backup plug-ins. It is very important to install a good backup platform. Please select one as required. 5. users and search engines that use the default URL structure are yourpage. Com\/? I am not happy to see a page like p=23. The user can’t see anything behind the link, and the search engine is also looking for keywords inside the URL, so the possibility of clicking is very small. Therefore, you must go to the WordPress dashboard and change the permanent link setting in Settings > permanent links from general to post name. Although the editor can still change links, by default, this makes users look better and improves search engine rankings. The
6. do not update the default icon. The icon may look like a small icon on the blog in the browser window, but this is also the way for visitors to identify you from other tabs that open. That’s your ID card. Pay attention to your brand building
