We have been asked a number of times to provide a list of plugins that every beginner blogger and new site owner should have on WordPress. The main reason we haven't done this so far is because it's hard to pin down a perfect list of plugins that every site should have. The main reason for this is each person and site is different. What one person might want, another might not. Having said that, we wanted to put together a list of plugins that we do think every site should have, no matter …
The Blog about Blogging
New Pricing, Features, and Plan
This is a hard post to write for us because we have worked very hard to keep our pricing low and attainable for any size business and blogger out there. We think we did a good job over the past couple of years, but it has caught up to us.

How to Easily Disable Gutenberg in WordPress 5.0
As we stated in our last post about Gutenberg, this big change has arrived. WordPress released 5.0 with the new Gutenberg editor on December 6th, 2018. I've been playing in WordPress since 2004 and I think this is the biggest change I've seen. All of the others have been relatively minor, but completely revamping the editor is huge.
