As web developers, we are always learning and keeping up with new technologies and  changes in web practices. That’s why our design firm  attends conferences and events that are happening – to find out what the latest news is in web development, what new tips and tricks can we discover, and in general ways to make ourselves better at our job. We can then pass on that knowledge and use our new skills to better serve you oru clients.

What is new in WordPress this year? We just attended the 2016 Los Angeles WordCamp.

Lots of talk about changes that are upcoming not only in WordPress but also in what will be happening soon that will affect everyone’s websites. Did you know that you really MUST have SSL certificates on your website by 2017? And how and why your ranking on the web will be affected if you are using ‘pop-ups’ – even the nice ones??  Is your site responsive yet? If not, that is going to affect how search engines rank your site – and it won’t be for the better!

Some simple additions and changes can help your site tremendously. Websites are so important to your business; they are what people see when they search for services or products that you can provide. They give you credibility and show that you  are professional. We really want to help you keep or better yet improve your standing with Google, Bing, Yahoo and all of the search engines. Now is a good time to take a look at your site and consider refreshing the look, making sure it works on all devices, and it is meeting the newer stringent standards and algorithms that the search engines are promising for January 2017.
