Can you add extra words between a keyword phrase? For example, let's say I found a keyword phrase such as "the best restaurants," but I wanted to add more words so it comes out

Hi Jay, I see Nathaniell has answered it for you! cheers!

Close enough is fine. Google is smart, and can interpret language. Many times it will rank pages without the perfect, exact phrase someone types into Google.

In your example, that's a perfectly fine way to title a post. Always go with natural language rather than forced keyword language!

Okay, thanks.

Should I use CSS code or the elementor plug-in to change the design of a website? Or could I use a combination of both? I already know to test CSS code on a sandbox website, so

if you are going the css route why not try out the hello theme from elementor as a very lightweight theme for you to customize.
personally i would recommend elementor for ease - but you are reliant on others coding and calls - how much do you trust them?
i i knew coding then i might e tempted with the css route if there was time.
maybe put it on a plain theme to start - prove the niche and then build it out
good luck

You can use CSS code on an Elementor site. It is a little bit more difficult because the IDs and classes are set by the Elementor theme rather than by you.

Knowing how to use the Chrome developer tools can help you find the classes and figure out how to target the specific elements you want to change with your CSS.

If you know how to use HTML, PHP, CSS and maybe Bootstrap 4 you can code your own site. It will take longer but you can get a site that looks exactly the way you want.

I am a theme developer and do that for fun. If you don't know how to code a theme you can take classes for cheap on Udemy.

Hope this helps.

Dave.

Thanks. I'll take a look at Udemy if I have the time.

A website called Choice Web Traffic contacted me and said that they can get me traffic on my site with one of their monthly subscriptions. They also said I can receive 500 visi

Nope. Traffic exchanges, or traffic buying sites like that are always garbage. Even if you do get traffic, it's never QUALIFIED traffic. It's usually just people clicking your website to fulfill their quota for the day, which doesn't get you sales, and doesn't actually help your business at all.

Hey Jay,

Traffic like this is not recommended. You need organic traffic that is attracted TO your site that will bring you real people who become your buyers.

Sources who promise traffic to your website only offer what is known as bots to visit your website. Some of those will only work to increase your website's bounce rate which will hurt your site's ranking.

Please, stick with the training and learn how to get organic traffic for FREE so that your site profits sooner.

Hope you find this helpful.

Thank you for letting me know. This was very helpful.

You need to delete all cards on file rather than just save one or the other. If it is inputed once, then the website will remember what cards are available should one bounce

The only way I could get images for my anime and manga blog is from fanart. As long as I give the creator credit, cite my sources, or link to my sources on a post/page, can I s

You should always ask permission from the creator, regardless of whether or not you give them a link. Most people will be cool with it, especially if they get exposure in a positive light, but that's just so you have your bases covered.

Oh okay. That makes sense. I was actually wondering if I should ask for permission. Thank you.

I looked at the wiki site on fanart and here is the link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_art scroll down to the copyright and see if you can get your answer there if the creator allow for others to use it, then it wold be ok but you have to be careful of the copyright. If you go to Google images and type what kind of images you are looking for and the go to the top and clickon tools then look to the left click on usage rights, you will see one that say's labeled for reuse you can see what they have to offer. I hope this helps VickiG

Thank you. You definitely helped. I didn't know I could use Google images that way.
