You have got a brilliant website ready – all dressed up in a stunning (and feature-packed) theme, powered with a handpicked retinue of premier plugins, and awesome content just waiting to wow your audience…

…but they'll probably never see it; unless you get your site indexed by the major search engines.

Despite seeming that way, search engines aren’t all-powerful and omnipotent. They can’t automatically know your site’s existence and display you as a relevant result if a user enters a search query. You have to take the first step forward in this partnership and tell the search engines about your website in a process called indexing.

A popular feature that's used by many sites is full height. It's applied on certain sections/rows to create a clean, simple design. However, although it looks nice, this feature requires you to scroll through your site to ensure that your visitors does not miss any information. A technique used to encourage users to continue to scroll, is by adding a scroll-to-next button. This could be an icon, an image, or just a plain arrow down button. We've made this tutorial to showcase how you can create your own scroll-to-next section button on any row on your site using the Themify Builder plugin or any Themify theme.

With Google now favouring mobile friendly sites, creating responsive sites have never been more important. But making sure that your site looks good on all devices can be tricky, especially with background images. For this tutorial, we're going to explain how background images varies in different devices, and how the Builder background position option can help fix this issue.

Plugins come and plugins go, but WordPress and Google are here to stay.

While many webmasters simply resort to using plugins developed by generous authors to include Google Analytics and Tag Manager in their WordPress websites, there’s no telling when said plugins can mess up the scripts or safety of your website (it’s not paranoia if more than 22% websites actually do get hacked via plugin vulnerabilities).

For the rest of us who can rely on our own skills of copying and pasting code, let’s take a gander at what it takes to correctly include and use Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager into WordPress websites for rapidly growing small businesses.

We've had quite a few people ask us how to transfer their site to a new server. Whether it's transferring from their local host to a live site, or from an old site to a different server/domain. Knowing how to transfer your WordPress site to a new server is definitely beneficial, especially if you're a developer looking to create multiple sites for clients.

With that said, we've decided to write a new tutorial that highlights some simple easy-to-follow steps on how you can migrate your WordPress site using the Duplicator plugin. This documentation is great for users who aren't tech savvy, have little time, or do it often for client sites.
