Hey Rick,
I appreciate that you've asked advice from someone who has setup a podcast... which I have not.
However, in case you are unaware of a truly awesome search engine, DuckDuckGo(dot)com offers great, accurate tutorials in there search engine results without forcing writers to pay in order to rank their content well.
See screen print below...
I've been using this search engine for over a year now for ANY and all technical assistance and that search engine has not let me down to date.
Hope you find this helpful.

I'm considering upgrading to ChatGPT4 and wondered what the opinions of those who use it are.
Hi - yes, there is so much more you can do with it.
Custom GPTs, create your own GPT, hundreds of plugins, the option to create AI images, etc.
Try it for a month, you can switch back to free, if you are not getting enough use from it.
Thanks Diane, I'm going to subscribe as I've realised I only have to commit to ChatGPT4 every month. It seems very fair to me.
Yeah, absolutely; there's no comparison between the two. You want to be subscribed.
Good to see you, Rick! And a happy new year...
Happy New Year to you too Abie......even if it's February already!!!
And thanks, I'll subscribe this afternoon.

I am building a new website for a new window cleaning business. I usually use Elementor, is it worth buying Elementor Pro?
Thanks Abie. There are plenty of options and I want something simple, easy to use and with more functionality than the free version!
I use Blocksy Agency but also have GeneratePress Premium, Divi, Oxygen, and Crocoblock. Even with the accessible version of Blocksy, there are plenty of features to go by.
You can use Elementor to edit your posts and pages; however, you still retain the functionality of your WordPress headers, footers, widgets, etc. Elementor tends to slow down website speeds, but I'm unsure if this issue has been addressed yet.
I presume most pages would be static for a window-cleaning business service. However, you might want to create a blank page called 'Blog,' add it to your menu, and update it with relevant posts to drive traffic to your service website or other merchants' stores.
If you want to set up payments, you can embed PayPal or Stripe payment gateways. You can also use the WooCommerce plugin to run an e-commerce website to sell products or services.
Thanks Abie, I appreciate such a comprehensive answer. Yes, the pages will be static with a "Blog" page.
It will mainly be a "brochure site" to give credibility to an offline business.
Thanks for the input.
You can design a brochure in Canva and DOCX format and then convert it to PDF. Upload it to your media library, collect the URL, and send it with an email building list, or provide it on your website for potential customers to download.
No problem, Rick :)
I also use Elementor pro and it is definitely worth the investmemt due to all of the options that Elementor offers.
Especially now, Elementor is changing their levels and eill be included with the Black Friday prices that will soon be available.

Thanks Rudy, I thought there is less available in the free version now than was the case a year or two ago.
That is true. And they are implementing Ai, and all kinds of cool stuff.
If you buy now, depending on which version you select, you may be grandfathered in. That way, you wont lose any of the options that are changing.
Something to consider.
Rudy
You're welcome, Rick. If you need any help with Elementor or have any other questions, let me know.
Rudy
Hi Rudy.
Can you tell me where I find Elementor. It should be a part of Premium but I cant find it? :)
You can download the Elementor plugin, install and activate.
Once there, there will be an upgrade link.
Click to upgrade, and create an Elementor account. Then you can select a plan.
Then you will download the pro/premium plugin, install, and activate.
Check out the settings.
If you have any questions send me pm.

If you're already familiar with using Elementor, Elementor Pro can add some nice features. When using Elementor are you finding yourself wanting to use certain elements that are locked because they're "pro only"? If so, upgrading to unlock them could be useful to you. If you don't ever find yourself needing those "pro only" features, then maybe you're good where you're at. :)
Thanks Eric, I appreciate your input. There are some elements available in pro that will be very useful.
I'll wait to see what Black Friday offers are available!
