Even if you don’t love writing, your website still needs a blog. A blog helps build valuable content for SEO, shows your authority in your industry, and lets customers connect with your business on a more personal level. It also keeps your website fresh, supports other marketing efforts, and drives long-term growth for your brand.
Keeping the Burj Khalifa’s windows clean takes three months per cycle, meaning the work never ends. SEO is the same way. It’s not about one big project; it’s about steady, ongoing effort. From updating keywords to refreshing content and photos, small daily SEO tasks keep your website shining and ranking higher over time.
The golden rule of SEO is simple: create quality content that provides real value to your audience. When your website focuses on helping readers with useful, relevant information, Google takes notice. Great content builds trust, boosts rankings, and keeps users coming back—making it the most effective long-term SEO strategy for any small business.
Mistakes happen to everyone when editing in Elementor. Learning how to undo in Elementor can save you time and stress. Whether you use Control or Command + Z for quick fixes or the History panel to roll back further, knowing your options makes editing easier and gives you the confidence to keep improving your site.
WordPress has been around for decades, but it’s still one of the best options for small business websites. With its flexibility, customization options, strong SEO foundation, and secure hosting capabilities, WordPress continues to be a platform that grows with your business. It’s trusted by millions for good reason—it simply works.
Can you use your own computer to host a website? Technically, yes. But for small business owners, it’s a risky and unreliable move. Between keeping your computer on 24/7, managing updates, and fixing downtime yourself, the costs quickly outweigh the savings. A professional hosting provider gives you security, reliability, and peace of mind.
Not every website builder gives you ownership of your content once it’s created. The great thing about WordPress is that you do. You own your text, images, and everything that makes your site yours. Learn why ownership matters, how it gives you freedom and control, and what to ask before hiring a design company.
“User experience” is the wrong name—it should be Potential Customer Experience. Your website isn’t just for users; it’s for people who might buy from you. Make sure it’s easy to navigate, fast to load, visually appealing, and full of clear CTAs. When visitors can find what they need easily, they’re much more likely to become customers.
Any website—whether a global marketplace or a small local shop—is a target for hackers, spammers, and spoof attacks. Even if you only run a blog, adding e-commerce puts you at even greater risk. Thankfully, with WordPress and WooCommerce, you can apply a handful of security practices—like recaptcha, account requirements, regular updates, and tools like Astra—to significantly reduce threat exposure.
Full Scope Creative (specifically working with Chris Robinson) has been super responsive to our needs within Intentional Mentoring. Chris helped get us situated on a website that fit our budget and our experience in managing a website. When we were looking to redesign the website, he worked with us to make sure it fit the vibe we wanted for our organization, held the terminology and access points we were looking for, and allowed us to speak with him frequently about suggestions and updates. Whenever we had new people join us that needed to learn the website, Chris was able to work with them virtually to learn and understand the process of managing our side. Throughout our time working with Full Scope Creative, we have appreciated the consistency, timeliness, and product we have been given. Additionally, we appreciate the direct connection we get in response to questions and concerns.
