Website Upgrade to Be Mobile-Friendly

A mobile-friendly website is also called "responsive design," which means that the design "responds" (or reacts) to different screen sizes. If your website is difficult to view and you have to "pinch zoom" to use it, it's times for an upgrade.

Recommended Website Hosting Providers

I recommend avoiding hosting providers with slow server speed, poor performance, poor reliability, poor security, and poor customer support. The shortlist includes Bluehost, HostGator, and GoDaddy. Read the long list.

I use SiteGround for many reasons. Their servers are fast, secure, and reliable. I've been with them for more than 3 years, so I'm very familiar with their system and tools. Because of that, my website maintenance skills are honed and I work quickly.

If you want to host your site with them, you can save money on their hosting plans by using this special discount.
