For those of you building a website to reach different audiences that use different languages, this article will aim to help you in increasing your WPML capabilities to speak a language we all appreciate; website performance! But first let’s take a look at the meaning of “Multilingual Website” together.
Your site speed is one of the key factors that contributes to the success of your website. Let’s reiterate that the average attention span of an average user is approximately 8 seconds, which means that you have about 3 to 4 seconds to grab their attention. But, what if your website loads longer than that? Bam! You’ve just lost a potential lead.
When it comes to grabbing your viewer’s attention, the visual design of your WordPress website is arguably more influential than the written content or the service itself. You want it to be love at first sight for everyone that lands on your page, otherwise you’ll lose a lot of leads.
There are two ways to showcase your creative work to your future clients: showing them and showing them the right way. Some believe that showcasing a portfolio project in itself is a creative work and even more important than creating the project itself. I, personally, have seen great presentations of mediocre portfolios converting more users into leads than a great creative portfolio which was presented poorly. Simply put, using effective presentation techniques will boost the value of a project.
Time and time again we’ve been impressed and inspired by the work of our users. From global campaigns, one-(wo)man web design and digital marketing agencies to startups and thriving initiatives, it’s been humbling to know that our themes and services could be a part of that success.
WordPress has attracted over 70 million users with its ease of use, versatility and capacity for what most people need from their website builder. Though even with how relatively easy it is for most people to learn to use their chosen WordPress theme, there’s always a learning curve that takes a little time and sometimes a lot of trial and error.
One of the problems with trends is that when they dominate a particular market, form of art or culture, the followers of those trends end up having a hard time obtaining a unique identity. While they all look like modern and trendy entities, after a while it becomes difficult to distinguish one from the other.
Many site owners spend a lot of time trying to improve page load times, enhance SEO, and increase conversion rates. Caching plugins, faster servers, CDNs, and lighter and faster-to-load WordPress themes all help. But if you’re not optimizing your images, you’re missing out on one of the simplest, high-ROI ways to improve your SEO and increase page speed.
