    Email provider for a WordPress website?

    It's easier to just get something like G-Suite (Google Workspace) set up and add in the MX records into your DNS. That way you're not troubleshooting or trying to manage your own email systems.

    GSC not indexing pages, despite very active website with weekly new content

    I know it sounds like a really dumb suggestion, but make sure your search console is configured for the right variation of your site, i.e: www. or just 'https://' or set up the domain version of search console.

    Does Google know that Bard has written the content?

    IMO whatever the answer is, it's irrelevant, the point is the intent of the content and who it's written for. Danny Sulivan John Mueller. etc have all gone on record and said that content written specifically to rank, will not. Regardless of whom has written the content, as long as it's useful...

    Realistic to mange own website? where to start?

    Can't really make an accurate comment without knowing the details really: - The size of your site, and its complexity - What you're currently getting (or supposedly getting) from your agency - Your goals from your website - Also what constitutes £££ in your eyes, cause that could be 10k p/m or...

    It's worth it if you think your service pages could be expanded and the content could be useful to your customers. If you're expanding it for the sake of expanding it and the content is just going to be repeated then no. SEO actions should always have the purpose of usefulness at heart.

    As of 2020: "All the link attributes, sponsored, ugc, and nofollow, now work today as hints for us to incorporate for ranking purposes. For crawling and indexing purposes, nofollow will become a hint as of March 1, 2020. " Just have to agree to disagree. My advice for OP is there, happy to help...

    New website ranking help

    Think I'd just misread your comment, and we're arguing semantics now. I'm not a web dev, I'm an SEO, so I'd assumed that your profiles etc wouldn't be part of the build and it'd count as off page, which is what I've discovered in my experience. Either way, I'm assuming OP doesn't have anything...

    Untrue. Google Guidelines indicate the use of nofollow as hints for search ranking now. Pretty much every high quality link you're going to get is going to be nofollow. If it was the case that only follow provided any value then off-page would be pointless and wouldn't factor in at all, which...

    Unless obviously, you've got an incredible content strategy, which would be a fair counter-point. But OP's only got 6 pages at the moment, so for best results I'd do both.

    You don't get a natural backlink profile with 0 work. I'm counting a website as literally everything housed on your server right? Your ancillaries like a GMB profile would count as off page. If you just launch your website with nothing aside from on page you'll still be in the same place you...

    This is untrue. You can have a flawless website, but with 0 off-page activity, it's going nowhere. IMO saying this and pushing someone to pay for a website review is disingenuous.

    Off page SEO is similar to Word Of Mouth marketing, the more people are talking (linking) about your product or brand, the more people find you, and the more search engines are going to trust you. That last point is important as it's that trust, that makes search engines want to rank your...

    Google Analytics - how is everyone else getting on with V4?

    I've had so many people tell me that GA4 is more powerful and that I'm using it wrong, but I've had enough. In typical Google fashion they've taken one of their perfect, successful products, and absolutely destroyed it. I hate it, in a way that surpasses my hatred of the new SC dashboard, and...

    Ai Chat Tools. What happens when everyone is using them?

    I feel like people are trusting it way too much, I've seen ChatGPT be confidently incorrect multiple times during testing. I'm using it to generate simple stuff to save me time but nothing more currently.
