Notas del editor

  1. Most people don’t. I’m not talking about SEO, which leads people to your site, but what people do when they get there.
  2. All the things or topics that you might want to put on your website. Some suggestions: About, Contact, Recipes, speaking articles, etc. Don’t use blog! The point here is two fold: setting up your navigation (Comes later) but more importantly, finding your focus. This method helps you with both.
  3. I’m using WordPress here as the basis, but this applies to any website.
  4. Keeping the 3-5-7 rules in mind
