You put in so much effort just to make one video, it's truly inspiring. All the little comedic moments like picking up the toolbox, doubling up as the audience and yourself etc and having to edit them smoothly into the video along with all the great info, it takes time and planning to do that. Thank you for sharing with us FREE!

Great video Wes. I'm curious - you don't mention mobile at all - most of my customers come to my website via a Facebook ad and in the past I spent loads of time on a pretty website only for it to very stripped down when viewed on mobile. The hero image won't be seen etc Now I keep it simple - and totally agree with you that keeping info so they just scroll down is the way to go. Many people don't even know how to find the menu items when on a mobile. A good proportion of my targe audience will be over 55 but they are still looking at my stuff on their phones - so no tiny text! Many of them don't even have a laptop or an ipad. I am mindful fitness teacher by the way.

🔥You've hit so many points...'so many' :) The best trap I fella into...'fancy website layouts'. From horizontal scrolling to all kinds of bling. No more :) Our biggest issue from what you say here, and another video is home page hero. We have a couple of vacation home directories....just about everyone has fullwidth image, with text and search bar over...you suggest Headings to left, one image to right....still not sure of this :)

As a Dane I'm proud of our capital city Copenhagen, so when you show people on bikes in Copenhagen, I notice it, but I would never myself connected Häagen-Dasz with Copenhagen or Denmark... I think it has more of a Dutch ring to it, also they have a city called Den Haag. Ice cream is however pretty "hot" in Denmark with lots of small independent high quality producers, and Nyhavn in center of Copenhagen where the picture is from is a very cosy place.

@ceciliainnes2586 5 месяцев назад

Wes. You’ve done it again! Wow this video was incredible. It must have taken a lot of dedication to create and it certainly shows. Your standard is so high and if your course matches this I will be more than impressed. I’m super ready to jump on board as you are one of the very few if not the only person who talks about content. What to say, where and how. I have one specific question I’d like to ask you about elementor and that is I need to do websites - mine and for future clients in various languages - Is this something you might be able to help me resolve on the course ? I don’t particularly want to use a plugin as translations tend to be so poor, but if I don’t use a plugin what do you recommend ? Thanks

@WesMcDowellInc 5 месяцев назад

Hi Cecilia! I don't specifically cover websites in different languages, but if you don't like the auto translations, I'm pretty sure there are plugins that will let you provide your own translations you could get from chatgpt or something then jsut check them over yourself.

Just curious if you think a photo of the owner of the business should be included on the home page? Some say they'd like to see this, some say it doesn't matter. Thanks Wes!

@WesMcDowellInc 5 месяцев назад

I used to say no, but I'm coming around to the idea more now. I think further down on the page where you introducce yourself and your solution is a natural place for it. I like having a photo of you bc then ppl can see there are real humans behind your business, which is importnat to ppl.

90% of websites are accessed on a mobile device - the desktop layout is not as relevant anymore

@don18vb 3 месяца назад

I use to think this too but then went to the analytics and still found that most of our traffic comes from desktop with mobile a close second and tablets a distant 3rd. But that could just be our industry.
