Recommended Resources
For Your Website
Hosting
SiteGround
If you are looking for hosting for your self-managed WordPress site, I recommend SiteGround hosting. They are affordable and have excellent support. If you are looking for a managed option, reach out to me for other recommendations.
Legal Policies
Termageddon
If you aren’t keeping up with the changing privacy laws across the US (and, let’s be honest, who is?), and keeping your legal policies updated appropriately, then you might find yourself in hot water. Save time, money, and anxiety by using Termageddon’s legal policies, which are kept up-to-date with changing laws.
Fonts & Graphics
Powered by Creative Market
Creative Market
Creative Market is the best resource for high-quality, affordable, and unique fonts, graphics, and other creative assets. If you sign up for a free account, you can also get 6 *free* new assets every week!
WordPress Theme
Astra
Astra is a lightweight WordPress theme that does not interfere with your page builder, but still offers great functionality.
WordPress Page Builder
Elementor
Elementor is my page builder of choice for WordPress. Personally I use the Pro version of the plugin to get all the added features, but the free version gives a lot of functionality and will work for a lot of people.
WordPress Page Builder
CartFlows
If you want to build your own sales funnels on your WordPress site rather than directing your traffic to a 3rd party overpriced funnel solution, Cartflows is the best tool on the market to do that.
Business Tools
Booking Calendar
Book Like A Boss
Book Like A Boss allows you to schedule appointments or classes with ease, without all the back and forth. It allows you to take payments online, and will remind your clients with emails or even SMS reminders!
Password Manager
LastPass
You should have unique passwords for each online account you have, but how do you keep up with so many passwords?!? LastPass is a great solution that makes your life easier AND more secure.
