I have been toying with the idea of a website that would be 80% filled with short videos, well a page really. I have a YouTube channel for this but was wondering if I did this
Hi Mark
I think 15 to 60-second embedded YouTube videos would be okay speed-wise, especially if they are lazy-loaded and not at the very top of the page. I would put some written content above them to improve the initial page-loading sequence.
You can monitor loading time as you add more videos to see what configuration works best and if you hit a speed limitation.
Just my opinion. 😎

Hi Mark
It means that the videos won’t actually load until you scroll down to them or click on them, depending on the setup.
This can increase loading speed by freeing up website resources.
I believe the current version of WordPress lazy loads videos, but some plugins give you more control over the loading parameters.

Can I have a page on my website that is just video shorts?

I have a page on my site that all my videos go to in a smaller thumbnail size , a little bit bigger and pay for an app called smash balloon. Sometimes I have to clear the cache and save in the back office for my most recent videos. The look well organized and are a mix of long form and shorts. Seems to work for me to have them all there

I have just recently noticed in my WP admin dashboard under posts a column with the heading Contextual Related Posts, with each post having a red X.
This has only appear
That question doesn't appear on the question panel, and I wonder why. The same thing is happening with some of my questions as well. Can it be a glitch?
It has been reported in the bug thread. The Official Bug Thread - Post Any Bugs Here I don't believe that it is our fault.
You have been a great given you some very good advice and guidance here…let us know if you have any further questions.

Hi Mark hope all is well.
I have used this plugin for the last week and it seems good.
Once activated it will work out all related posts and at the end of the post it will show as related posts as a title then give the further posts to read.
What I found once finds related post it will use the featured image if you have one and add them to the end of the post.
If there are no featured image then you will find just the title of the post itself which still is not an issue.
Either way it is aimed at increasing engagement for your visitors as they may want to click further on the other posts.
Worth trying to test it out it has good reviews but also you don't need to do much just activate and you are good to go.
You will find when you go to all posts on the right-hand side there will be a red X indicating if you wish to not include that post.
Still playing around with it when I get the chance and in the settings you can do more but the plugin as it is does the job and should be fine.
It will automatically sort your related posts once activated.
Enjoy

No probs Mark

The plugin was also updated 5 days ago as well
The image attached is roughly what it will look like at the end of your post.
Cheers Mark hope you got a chance to use it and test it out.
Enjoy the reminder of the night and have a bonza of a weekend.

There's a plugin for that. It increases your site engagement by fetching a list of related posts. Have you seen it? Yeah! <3
Is this the plugin you are referring to?

In October I am getting 3 sign ups per day, however not 1 of them are answering any of my messages or going any further. All seem like bogus sign up names compared to their pro
Hey, Mark! How have you been? I had four in one year, and they were all gibberish. Sometimes that happens!
Jeff
184 referrals from May 15 through August 29--one Premium. Most from India and the Middle East, all via Ads, but none targeting any of those countries...almost no communication.
if they have real names then you are doing betterthan me ...mine are random letters and numbers...
i hope yours are legit, but i suspect they are bots...
Hey Abie I have installed this, however I am still getting on average 4 Spammy signups per day.
Has it been set up correctly? You may discuss it with

Recommended verification method
I am trying to verify this site and have the following instruction's below, however have no idea where I should be uploading it to?

Richard (as well as Partha and Phil) have you covered. You have very good advice and guidance here…let us know if you have any further questions.

"Headers and Footers" plugin works for me. If this is for a verification code for Google Search Console for instance, simply add the code to the Header section in the plugin and save. Then remember to Verify in GSC.
:-)
Richard
if you have ftp access you can add it to your sites root directory...
you used to be able to use a file manager plugin - but wa say thay may cause security issues...
so you are back to asking support to do it for you ...
they may ask you to add it to a page or dropbox for them to add it to your site...
Hey Mark,
I'd love to tell you EXACTLY where to upload/stick it after yesterday's result, but I won't!!! Hahahahahahaha!!
I'm guessing it'll be an HTML code that needs to be "in your header or footer" or "displayed on every page".
Although, this does depend on which particular site requires your verification.
For me, I've always used the WP Codes plugin (previously known as "Headers & Footers plugin"), plus you can also try the Ad inserter plugin.
As I say, I'm guessing they want you to upload the HTML code to your header, so use one of the above plugins to do this.
Failing that, again depending on what/who the site is, SiteSupport also have the ability to upload codes to your root directory (so you can speak to them about that too).

Hey ole mate, I was going to leave it another day before speaking about Bazball but since you bought it up, Aussie Aussie Aussie oi oi oi!!
Get F*****
I'll allow you to fill in the blanks!!!
Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!
Well played mate... well played!!
On another note 8 months into my coffee website following your google methods I am smashing it in vistors, activity and starting to earn fairly well mate, so a BIG THANKS!!! My gardening website using exactly the same is only 7 weeks old but taking off nicely! So you can tell me to Get F***** as much as you like hahhahaha!!
Hahahahahahahahaha!!
I wanna say I'm really proud of you mate... but I can't face it today, LOL... maybe after Lord's I'll tell you what a great guy you are, what a hard worker you are, and how really, really proud of you I am!
From a network standpoint, we don't say that it needs to be displayed on every page. When we ask for this, we just ask that it be tucked into the code in a way where it can be found by our checkers but never affect the consumer's experience. I can't say that everyone does it this way, but I can say that it does ensure that this is an effective way of confirming that the person claiming to own a site actually does.

Hi Peeps,
I have built my other sites using Astra Pro and have decided that this new site will use Generate Press (Pro Version) however for the life of me I cannot find
You are well covered here with some excellent advice, and guidance.
Please let us know if you still have any questions.
-Mike
So you’re asking about where to enter your focus keyword right? That’s actually dependent on the SEO plug-in you’re using, like AIOSEO, Yoast, etc.
Yeah cheers Eric, finally worked that out when I looked through my other sites LOL... It must have been a Sunday after a Saturday night thing :)
You can try this
Create a new page or post.
Click the plus icon
Look for the "GenerateBlocks" section and click on the "HTML" block.
Once the HTML block is added, click on it to start editing.
Type in your content and include your target keyword phrase where it makes sense and reads naturally within the text.
Then save your changes.
I use Rank Math Pro - and within the General Tab, I can enter the focus keyword
