Sometimes I should learn to keep my mouth shut. But if I did,  we wouldn’t get awesome interviews like this one with James Schramko of superfastbusiness.com.

I was listening to James interview on another podcast and he lead in to how easy it is to launch a WordPress website. Even more so, how fast and cheap it is.

Call it passion or call it crazy – but I called him out on why folks launching their new website shouldn’t just skimp out because they can.

Long story short, he contacted me and this episode was born. Join us to discuss the steps it takes to build a great WordPress website!

I like to think that these sort of lists are subjective to the type of website you’re building. In your case, you might focus more on the pure design aspects of the site or the mobile usability.

Either way, I hope you find this list and collection of links useful for your WordPress business — or even more important — your customer’s.

Speed

Speed is an important factor across the board. It will improve our bounce rate and help mobile networks tolerate the access to your content.

Oh, Google loves speed too.
