Perfect grammar and optimized SEO result in nothing more than a high bounce rate if writing doesn't connect with your audience.

Grammatically correct phrasing doesn't guarantee the best phrasing. Context and connotations for the audience must be considered with every word and phrase choice to ensure correctness and impact.

10 Best VPS Hosting Providers Of 2025

At this level, you need to at least know the basics of how computer resources work and have a reasonable familiarity with basic hosting settings, although managed plans can help reduce the technical skills needed.
Most small businesses start with sha...

The Onboarding Process: A Step-By-Step Guide

There’s a reason job description terms like “self-starter” and “hit the ground running” have prospective employees running for the hills. Terms like those (among others) suggest little to no employee onboarding or training.

Best Shopify Alternatives Of 2025

Shopify’s customer satisfaction and name recognition don’t match. While Shopify is the undisputed king of e-commerce name recognition, users are often disappointed with high subscription costs, extra fees, lack of quick customer support and difficulties with customization.

As an all-in-one e-commerce platform that includes hosting, users also often have concerns about Shopify’s lack of detailed information on the hosting resources keeping their online stores live and functioning.

That said, its quick and easy store creation, along with over 4,000 third-party integrations, keeps Shopify squarely on most best e-commerce platform lists. However, Shopify isn’t best for every business, so I’ve collected my top five Shopify alternatives to help you grow your business.

10 Best Domain Registrars Of 2025

Free domain names with hosting offers are expensive. Most people register a new domain name as part of getting web hosting, but renewal rates are often a case of sticker shock, and security is often lacking. Most of the best domain registrars specialize in domain registration first and hosting second (if at all), allowing them to offer better prices, security and more features.

My best domain registrar list is the result of years of industry experience, a deep dive into the features and specifications, research into the experiences of thousands of real-life customers just like you and hands-on testing of each ranking provider. After all of the tests we put each provider through, little piggy Porkbun wiggled its way to the top with affordable pricing, outstanding security, great ease of use and a friendly support team.
