    If you were starting a hosting company...

    I think offering easy upgrades as a companies grows, such as shared to VPS to dedicated etc.

    Wordpress tags still relevant?

    What are those "specific purposes" you've found? Because I've found no modern use for them.

    Sites losing sales by being unclear about the carriage charges until the end of the checkout

    Justin you're not bothered about losing small orders but many of your customers may initially place a small order and come back for a bigger order once they trust you more. Have you heard that the first pound is the hardest to get a prospective customer to spend?

    Sites losing sales by being unclear about the carriage charges until the end of the checkout

    Exactly. It's a matter of deciding what the end user needs and then getting it done if you don't know how to do it yourself. Not working within constraints of what you think can be done or what you think is easiest. You're not reinventing the wheel here. It's quite standard practice for an...

    How to start SEO with a new CBD wesite?

    There's a contradiction here. You say you've started working on SEO but your on page SEO is complete? This doesn't make sense. You don't just create a website then stop adding content!

    Digital Marketing to Tradespeople / Plumbers

    James the timescale is related to effort and competition. Like a triangle if you will. That's why some are querying the 5 or 6 month timescale for organic SEO. If you increase effort it takes less time. If you had a £500 per month budget vs a £5000 per month budget do you think the timescale...

    Sites losing sales by being unclear about the carriage charges until the end of the checkout

    It would be more work, but the delivery costs could be dynamically added to the page as a single value, based on what's in the cart at the time, even packages. Alternatively, can't you simplify the carriage charges and consolidate them then add a single static value? Lots of different charges...

    Sites losing sales by being unclear about the carriage charges until the end of the checkout

    Alan but the point in terms of usability is that the delivery cost should be clear and explicit during any given user journey. For example, the delivery cost isn't clear on mobile (which may be 60% of the site's visits) when clicking on a particular product from Google SERPS. In this instance...

    Can a Wix website be good enough?

    It's about charging by value not by the hour though. If you do a job in 2 minutes, do you actually charge for a 30th of your hourly rate? Or do you charge based on the years of experience it took you to learn how to do the job in 2 minutes, when others might take a couple of hours to do the same...

    Digital Marketing to Tradespeople / Plumbers

    I thought that's what I said. It's the amount of effort put in vs the strength of the competition.

    Sites losing sales by being unclear about the carriage charges until the end of the checkout

    It could be in the basket thought as soon as the buyer has added to cart. Unless the intention is to capture the buyers' details and follow up with an abandoned cart type discount code, which is one ecommerce tactic. But it that by design or an oversight? Surely it's better to capture that sale...

    Sites losing sales by being unclear about the carriage charges until the end of the checkout

    It should be clear in the checkout process and there should be user testing. It isn't acceptable to have it in a link. It's a basic usability principle.

    Can a Wix website be good enough?

    Sorry I don't agree with this. To say the 4 or 5 pages quoted for is a ripoff without actually considering the content and design that has gone into the pages is naive. Are you saying that each page that a web designer creates are the same? Are you saying that a page is a page and all pages are...
