Hey alluser,
If you were to build a website from scratch today, how differently would you start again?
Well, I can't speak for others, but over the years, I've learned a lot of lessons that I wish I'd known when I first started.
Thanks to all the lessons I have learned so far, whenever I launch a site, I now follow some checklists to ensure everything is lined up perfectly: Checklist 1 and Checklist 2!
Having the right checklists helps you ensure that you follow best practices and pay attention to small yet important details.
Even if you aren't planning to build a new site, it's worth taking a look at the above articles.
Let me know what else you'd add to the above checklist by replying to this email :)
What Pros Use on Their Websites
Lots of users think that WordPress experts rely heavily on custom code for their sites. In my experience, that's not the case.
Professional WordPress developers prefer to use existing tools rather than reinvent the wheel. Most have a WordPress toolkit — a collection of software and plugins — that they use to build a solid foundation for their websites.

Starting a Website? Here's a Shortcut
Have you ever built a WordPress site on your own, only to find it lacks a professional touch?
While WordPress lets you build your projects on your own, making the site look both unique and stunning can be tedious.
This is why I started offering WordPress website design services on WPBeginner.
The best part is that you can find services that fit your budget! Take a look at it here.
Have a great rest of your week :)
Cheers,
