WP Engine Reprieve

WP Engine Reprieve
I’ve heard from WP Engine customers that they are frustrated that WP Engine hasn’t been able to make updates, plugin directory, theme directory, and Openverse work on their sites. It saddens me that they’ve been negatively impacted by Silver Lake‘s commercial decisions. On WP Engine’s homepage, they promise “Unmatched performance, automated updates, and bulletproof security ensure your sites thrive.” WP Engine was well aware that we could remove access when they chose to ignore our efforts to resolve our differences...

WP Engine is banned from WordPress.org

Any WP Engine customers having trouble with their sites should contact WP Engine support and ask them to fix it. WP Engine needs a trademark license, they don’t have one. I won’t bore you with the story of how WP Engine broke thousands of customer sites yesterday in their haphazard attempt to block our attempts to inform the wider WordPress community regarding their disabling and locking down a WordPress core feature in order to extract profit. What I will tell...

How WordPress Is Creating a Faster Web
Today, WordPress powers more than 40% of the web. That’s a massive reach—one that comes with a similarly large responsibility. With so many people using the CMS, the WordPress community should always consider strategies for improving the visitor experience. This is where website performance plays a crucial role.

Unlocking the power of AI for content creation – CyberSEO Pro
Some beginner webmasters complain that Google deindexes their pages created with AI. For some reason, they believe that Google is biased against any content created by artificial intelligence. This, of course, is not the case. You must understand that Google does not deindex pages simply because they were generated or rewritten using AI. It deindexes them for spam, duplicate content, and low quality. Everything depends on what is written in your article, not whether it was written by a human...
