HIGH FIVE, YOU'RE LIVE! GET SOME TIPS BELOW:

There are a few things I always suggest doing when you launch a site to make sure you get off to a good start and that everything is working properly. I test everything myself too, but it's always good to have two sets of eyes!

1. CHECK YOURSELF

Take a minute and look through your site on desktop and mobile. Make sure that your contact forms are sending without any errors on the site and also that they're actually reaching your inbox! If you're a Showit user, you can always check a backup of all of your messages by logging into your Showit account at showitaccount.com so you'll have a backup of anything that your contact form receives there, even if it doesn't come through to your email.

2. TUTORIALS & UPDATES

My fully custom clients get a personalized video tutorial for their site straight to their Dropbox, but even if you did a semi-custom site or template customization option, there are still a lot of resources out there for you as well. If you run into trouble or need help, you can ALWAYS email me. I will always answer, direct you to where you need to go, and I am also available for updates at my hourly rate of $75/hr.

For Showit clients, Showit help tutorials are located HERE and if you have an EMERGENCY, click HERE for their emergency support team (they even work weekends and holidays).

3. FILES & PRINTABLES

For my custom branding clients, your files and printables (if applicable) will remain in Dropbox unless you delete them out. If you need any additional files, I'm always happy to help you out.

4. HELPFUL LINKS

If you are a Showit user, I highly recommend joining the Showit User Facebook Group HERE. You can also join the Showiteers Group HERE.

If you are a Divi user, you can get updates on new features and updates HERE on the Elegant Themes page.

5. ACCESS YOUR SITE

Obviously, getting into your website and knowing how to update things is number one! If you are a Showit user, you log in at app.showit.co IN CHROME BROWSER ONLY. Don't have Chrome? Download it HERE. For Wordpress, you should have received your Wordpress login information (if you didn't have it already) either from me or from Showit, depending on what platform you are using. HINT: The login url will end with "wp-admin." Make sure you can log into your site so you can save the login details!

SEO

My clients always ask me if I do SEO - the short answer is no. I work with several clients that are in the same line of work with the same keywords and the same area and I'm just not enough of an SEO expert to be able to make sure there isn't a conflict of interest there.

If you are using Showit and are the DIY type, check out their help resources HERE for SEO.

For Wordpress, I recommend the Yoast plugin. And get some awesome easy tips HERE. (This plugin is already pre-installed on Showit accounts)

For general SEO knowledge for photographers, I also recommend joining the Fuel Your Photos Facebook Group HERE.
