Yoast SEO ebook is pretty darn good

Check out the Yoast SEO ebook for some good, basic WordPress optimization tips

About a week ago, Yoast released it’s long-awaited “Yoast SEO ebook,” and we have to say, it’s pretty good stuff. The ebook offers optimization tips exclusively for WordPress, and it seems to target the Intermediate WordPress user, but certainly isn’t too advanced for the Beginner. The PDF is 152 tip-packed pages and also is available in other editions, such as for Kindle and ePub. It’s easy to read, it’s colorful, and they even have taken the time to give it some nice infographics and design elements.

Who is Yoast?

Yoast is the maker of what is arguably the most popular SEO plugin for WordPress, called the WordPress SEO plugin. Yoast also has other plugins for video, Woocommerce, Google Analytics, etc. Yoast is a small team of developers and SEO experts who focus on nothing but WordPress.

What’s in the ebook?

Sections of the ebook are … well, why don’t we just list them for you:

  • SEO
  • Navigation
  • Sales
  • Analytics
  • Conversion Research
  • Social Media
  • Speed

We were particularly interested in the section on Speed, as we’ve had a couple of issues with some WordPress sites that didn’t want to load quickly, and as expected, we got some good tips that we were able to put to good use immediately.

Get the ebook

The Yoast SEO ebook costs $19. Full disclosure: For every sale, we get absolutely nothing. We just think that this is a great resource and want to share the love. This particular post, in fact, was optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin.

Cheap photo service with great quality

A cheap photo service we think you will love

Our clients often ask us, “Can you recommend a cheap photo service?” The answer is yes. But while a cheap photo service doesn’t always translate to “great quality,” this one is an exception. It’s called Dollar Photo Club, and the photos really do cost, you guessed it, $1.

Just one caveat

You will pay an up-front “membership fee” of $99, but that fee instantly gives you an account stocked with 99 credits, so you essentially are buying 99 one-dollar photos. We’re not here to sell you a bunch of crummy third-party marketing services, but when we come across a marketing resource that really is a rare and excellent value, we have to share it. Full disclosure is that, yes, we’re signed up (proudly) as an affiliate for these guys.

Photos and vector art that are top-notch

We think the quality of the photos and vector illustrations is as good as many of the other services that often charge hundreds of dollars per image. So if you want a cheap photo service or cheap vector art that is still pretty darn nice, check out Dollar Photo Club and we think you’ll be thrilled.
