When choosing a URL, is it OK or a bad idea to use words like "Buy" or "Online" within your URL?
Example would be if I am looking to build a website around Camping Equip
Hi Randy,
"Online" is a bit redundant because that's the only way to view a website anyway, so I'd steer clear of that in your domain name. In regards to including "buy", I'd also choose something different.
What are people wanting to do online in terms of shopping/buying:
- Researching
- Learning
You could brand yourself like:
CampingStuffReviews.com
CampingGearReviewGuy.com
CampingGearCritic.com
TrailGearReviews.com
OutsideGearReviewGuy.com
CampGearInsider.com
AdventureGearReview.com
CoolGearForCamping.com
CampingExpertGuide.com
CampStuffReview.com
BestCampingGear.com
CampingGearNerd.com
You'd have to check for availability, but I'd go with a domain like that vs using "Online" or "Buy" in the domain name.

Very very good Carson! That’s exactly why I asked the question FIRST before making the decision because I thought it might not be the best strategy. Thank you so much!

Hi WA, When I post an article to my site I want the title down within the article and hide the main title. I have used two different plugins that hide the title but neither is
Usually in the right sidebar of the post editor in the post settings near the bottom you’ll find a feature to hide the title.
Thanks Eric. Yup, mine doesn’t look like the photo you supplied but I tick the box of hide title on the right of the post. But, are you saying this is possible without a plug-in? I don’t see how my posts are giving me that option without a plug-in if that is what you are saying. Actually I just thought of something… I use the classic editor plug in too so maybe that’s a reason why I don’t see it.
This example shown is using the free version of generate press with no plugin for hiding the title. 👍🏼
Hey my friend,
Try the "Hide Page and Post Title"plugin. Normally it wouldn't affect the recent post area.
Maxine :)
That’s the exact one I tried first and it was working just fine. Then I did two other posts and neither post title was removed even after clicking the hide title box. I loaded another hide title plug in and it was the one to remove the side bar recent post titles. Maybe I should try reloading the first plug in and try again. ?.
First off, clear your cache. Then, try the plugin again. Hope it works successfully this time.
Maxine :)
Yeah the clearing of Cache didn’t seem to work.
Do you think having a featured image for my post would make the title reappear even when the hide tile box is ticked?

What is a better plugin for a local website SEO?
SEO Framework or All In One SEO? Is one more complete or more complicated?
Hi Randy,
Based on experience, I know All In One SEO & RankMath both have local seo features.
I don't know if SEO Framework has any features.
Keep in mind that it's not the plugin that makes a website rank for local seo, but the strategy.
If you'd like to see a working example of a website that ranks well, check out:

They have been clients of mine for many years and we continue to keep them in the top ranking position for their target keywords.
Noted Jay thanks. I have been following all of your local on page off page training and have revamped my whole website. I don’t know how to do all the pretty design stuff yet but mainly concerned with getting better rankings first. Thank you for your reply.

Hi WA, I was thinking of creating a local website for my grandson. He is 11 years old and quite the entrepreneur! He mows everyone’s lawn in the neighborhood, uses his we
No they wont they are now set to no-idexed as they are meant to be practice site. you can still do your about me and all they is stated in the core training, and when you have your own website they what you have in siterubix can be transfered over to your own domain.
That cuts the need to re-do the basics again.
Or you can use a siterubix as a staging site, (that also is set to no index) if you own a domain to test things out without affecting your real site. if so site support can create a staging site for you.
Ok I thought I read or heard that in the training but needed clarification so thank you for that.

Hi guys, I have watched a lot of training and I thought I remember that there was a place we can enter our site and it tells us where we rank for a particular keyword.
As a premium plus member, every day, I publish a post to Jaxxy and do a site search with the URL of the article title. Of course, it doesn't find anything as it has just been published, but after it reflects zero, you can see a slider I set mine to check the rankings daily.
Very helpful. I never even knew that was there. probably because I am still so new, Ha!
Thank you Catherine
You can use Jaaxy so click on Recearch and select ranking.
Type your post title then next to that your url of your website and select find.
As you are a plus member, it will show you the first 20 pages
Also type in Jaaxy using the magnyfing glass at the top and there are various post from Kyle and Jay on certain areas within Jaaxy here is one of them. Jaaxy - Keyword Research & Management Andre
