What Works For One Website Owner May Not For Another
I learned through time that websites are unique. Meaning, someone may have a great experience using a plugin or theme but, another person may not.
We all are using different make and models of computers, browsers and internet connections.
It Starts With YourComputer
It’s very important to have a virus cleaner and to clean your system. Sometimes a glitch can happen through your own browser or a virus on your computer.
It is a good idea to run a virus scan now and then.
I don’t know if other people do this, but it is also a good idea to restart your internet connection.
One of the tech guys who installed my internet told me that it cleans out all that junk and helps your internet speed stay fast.
Through Your Own Action Your Website Starts To Develop
Our websites may start off similarly, but as we learn and grow our business we start to add themes, widgets, plugins, videos, content, images and other stuff. Our websites starts to develop it’s own DNA.
As humans, we get sick! Sometimes one medication may work for some people and not for others.
So, when someone indicates that they don’t get answers, some questions are hard to answer based on their website’s DNA.
There Are Some Easy Fixes!
Some of these easy fixes are NOT the answer but it can be a good place to start.
Usually an easy fix would be to deactivating each plugin and then reactivating them on at a time.
Another easy fix could be changing themes, removing old themes and plugins you don’t use or removing plugins that haven’t been updated in a very long time.
Sometimes you just have to go to SiteSupport if it pertains to your website.
The ultimate savior is to just backup your website and have these backups on a removable drive just to be safe.
There are times when someone may lose content and if there is a backup on hand, you really didn’t lose anything.
I get it that hosting companies like WA backup your websites but, these sites tend to be like your babies so it’s always good to protect them by keeping backups.
All The Best!

Being mindful of maintenance can be one of the best things we can do Evelyn, and looking after our devices can be so helpful when it comes to productivity.
Some great points.
Good advice there. Computers seem to have minds of their own, and at times they are contrary. How can a machine seem like it is alive?
Not only are all websites unique, but also the operators are all originals.
Hey Fran, yeah these computers boy, what seems like science fiction may not be so fiction after all. I was thinking how life was back in the day where there was no internet or cellphones. We actually communicated via face to face and if we didn't, the biggest innovated invention was a very long cord for our house phone, LOL.

Hi Evelyn, as you can see I'm running behind. I did enjoy your blog and thanks for making the distinction that what works for one will not work for everyone.
