For instance, you could give shoppers the opportunity to sign up for the waitlist for a certain amount of time. In exchange, they would be able to purchase the product BEFORE the actual launch date.</p>\n<p>There are many ways to use waitlists to boost interest in your products and keep shoppers engaged.</p>\n<p><strong>12.

Most prominent is the new warning for sites running long-outdated versions of PHP.<br></p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can check out <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2019/02/08/wordpress-5-1-field-guide/\">the Field Guide for this release</a> for a detailed look at all the new features and improvements. The next release <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2019/02/19/wordpress-5-2-schedule-and-scope/\">is already in development</a> with plans to improve the Site Health features, PHP compatibility, and a number of other things.<br></p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to get involved in testing or building WordPress Core?

The first phase of Gutenberg resulted in the block editor that was included in WordPress 5.0, but development didn’t stop there &#8211; <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2019/02/20/whats-new-in-gutenberg-20th-february/\">phase 2 of the project is well underway</a>.<br></p>\n\n\n\n<p>This month, one of the initial goals for this phase was reached with <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2019/02/18/porting-widgets-to-blocks-feb-18-2019/\">all of the core WordPress widgets being converted to blocks</a> &#8211; this will go a long way to allowing full sites to be built using blocks, rather than simply post or page content.<br></p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to get involved in developing Gutenberg? Check out <a href=\"https://github.com/wordpress/gutenberg\">the GitHub repository</a> and join the #core-editor channel in <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/chat/\">the Making WordPress Slack group</a>.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Block Editor Comes to the Mobile Apps</h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As Gutenberg development continues, the Mobile team has been working hard to integrate the new block editor into <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/mobile/\">the WordPress mobile apps</a>. Near the end of February, <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/mobile/2019/02/26/the-block-editor-is-coming-to-the-mobile-apps/\">the team shipped a complete integration in the beta versions of the apps</a> &#8211; this a significant milestone and a big step towards unifying the mobile and desktop editing experiences.<br></p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both the iOS and Android apps are open for beta testers, so if you would like to experience the block editor on mobile today, then <a href=\"https://apps.wordpress.com/contribute/\">join the beta program</a>.<br></p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to get involved in developing the WordPress mobile apps?

For the first time, WordPress will catch and pause the problem code, so you can log in to your Dashboard and see what the problem is (<a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/44458\">#44458</a>). Before, you’d have to FTP in to your files or get in touch with your host.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, in April 2019, <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2018/12/08/updating-the-minimum-php-version/\">WordPress&#8217; will increase its minimum supported PHP version to 5.6</a>. To help you check if you&#8217;re prepared for this change, WordPress 5.1 will show you a warning and help you upgrade your version of PHP, if necessary.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2>For Developers</h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The Cron system can now be more easily replaced with a custom cron handler (<a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/32656\">#32656</a>).</li><li>When starting cron under PHP-FPM, the connection will return a response immediately, even for long running cron jobs (<a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/2019/01/09/cron-improvements-with-php-fpm-in-wordpress-5-1/\">dev note</a>).</li><li><code>WP_DEBUG_LOG</code> can be set to a custom log location (<a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/18391\">#18391</a>).</li><li>Introduced the <code>wp_blogmeta</code> table (<a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/37923\">#37923</a>).</li><li>Added <code>LIKE</code> support to <code>meta_key</code> comparisons in <code>WP_Meta_Query</code> (<a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/42409\">#42409</a>).</li></ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There have been <a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=closed&amp;milestone=5.1&amp;group=resolution&amp;col=id&amp;col=summary&amp;col=component&amp;col=owner&amp;col=type&amp;col=priority&amp;col=version&amp;order=priority\">over 360 tickets closed</a> in WordPress 5.1, with numerous small bug fixes and improvements to help smooth your WordPress experience.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep your eyes on the <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/\">Make WordPress Core blog</a> for more developer notes (which are <a href=\"https://make.wordpress.org/core/tag/5-1+dev-notes/\">assigned</a> the <code>dev-notes</code> tag) in the coming weeks detailing other changes in 5.1 that you should be aware of.</p>\n\n\n\n<h2>How to Help</h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you speak a language other than English?&nbsp;<a href=\"https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp/dev\">Help us translate WordPress into more than 100 languages!</a></p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>If you think you’ve found a bug</em></strong><em>, you can post to the&nbsp;</em><a href=\"https://wordpress.org/support/forum/alphabeta\"><em>Alpha/Beta area</em></a><em>&nbsp;in the support forums.

Columns can be used to create engaging layouts for your posts and pages. </p>\n<p>Traditional print media, like newspapers and magazines, have been using multi-column layouts since the very early days of printing. Their goal was to make it easier for users to read the smaller text while utilizing the available space economically. </p>\n<p>Single column layouts are more commonly used on the web. However, multi-column grids are still useful for highlighting content and making it easier to scan and read. </p>\n<p>In this article, we’ll show you how to easily add multi-column content in your WordPress posts without writing any HTML code.</p>\n<p><img title=\"Add Multi-Column Content in WordPress Posts and Pages\" src=\"https://cdn3.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/addmulti-columncontentinwordpress.png\" alt=\"Add Multi-Column Content in WordPress Posts and Pages\" width=\"550\" height=\"340\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61170\" /></p>\n<h4>Adding Multi-Column Content in WordPress – The Easy Way</h4>\n<p>Creating multi-column content aka grid column content in WordPress is now easy because it comes as a default feature. The new WordPress Block Editor <a href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-use-the-new-wordpress-block-editor/\">Gutenberg</a> includes a columns block. </p>\n<p>To add a multi-column layout, you need to create a new post or edit an existing one. Once you&#8217;re in the post edit area, click on the &#8216;Add&#8217; icon on the top to add a block. </p>\n<p>Next, you need to select the &#8216;Columns&#8217; block located under &#8216;Layout Elements&#8217; tab. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Add Columns Block in Your WordPress post\" src=\"https://cdn.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/addcolumnsblockinwordpress.png\" alt=\"Add Columns Block in Your WordPress post\" width=\"550\" height=\"305\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61151\" /></p>\n<p>You will now see the mouse cursor jumping on the left column and a text placeholder will appear on the right column. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Columns block WordPress in WordPress added to post\" src=\"https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/columnsblockinwordpress.png\" alt=\"Columns block WordPress in WordPress added to post\" width=\"550\" height=\"267\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61152\" /></p>\n<p>As you can see in the above screenshot, the Columns block seems just an empty area at first. If you mouse over to the left, you can see the block border highlighted. </p>\n<p>You will also be able to see the block settings on the right column of the post edit screen. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Columns Block WordPress - 2 Columns\" src=\"https://cdn2.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/columnsblockwordpress2columns.png\" alt=\"Columns Block WordPress - 2 Columns\" width=\"550\" height=\"264\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61153\" /></p>\n<p>By default, the columns block will adds two columns. You can increase the number of columns you want to add from the block settings on the right. It allows you to add up to six columns in a single row. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Add more columns to your Columns\" src=\"https://cdn3.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/addmorecolumnstowordpress.png\" alt=\"Add more columns to your Columns\" width=\"550\" height=\"281\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61155\" /></p>\n<p>Simply click on a column and start typing to add content. You can use the tab key on your keyboard for switching to the next column. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Add Text in Your WordPress Columns\" src=\"https://cdn3.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/addtextinyourcolumns.png\" alt=\"Add Text in Your WordPress Columns\" width=\"550\" height=\"288\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61154\" /></p>\n<h4>Adding Media and Other Content in Your Columns</h4>\n<p>In addition to the text content, you can also add images and <a href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-easily-embed-videos-in-wordpress-blog-posts/\" title=\"How to Easily Embed Videos in WordPress Blog Posts\">embed videos</a> in WordPress columns. </p>\n<p>The columns block allows you to add blocks inside each column. Simply take the mouse to a column, and you will notice the &#8216;Add new block&#8217; icon inside it. You can also add a block by typing / and then the block name.  </p>\n<p><img title=\"Add new block in WordPress columns\" src=\"https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/addblockincolumnswordpress.png\" alt=\"Add new block in WordPress columns\" width=\"550\" height=\"354\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61156\" /></p>\n<p>Your selected block will now appear inside the column. You can now go ahead and add content to it. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Image Block Added to WordPress\" src=\"https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/imageblockaddedtowpcolumns.png\" alt=\"Image Block Added to WordPress\" width=\"550\" height=\"265\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61165\" /></p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how your new column may look in the default Twenty Nineteen theme. In this example, we are using three columns and the last column contains an image. </p>\n<p><img title=\"3 Columns in WordPress Post - Preview\" src=\"https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/columnsinwppreview.png\" alt=\"3 Columns in WordPress Post - Preview\" width=\"550\" height=\"265\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61166\" /></p>\n<p>If you only want to add an image and some text next to it, then you can also use the &#8216;Media and Text&#8217; block instead of columns. This particular block is made specifically for showing media like images and videos next to some text. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Add Media and Text Block in WordPress\" src=\"https://cdn.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/addmediaandtextblockwordpress.png\" alt=\"Add Media and Text Block in WordPress\" width=\"550\" height=\"324\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61157\" /></p>\n<h4>Adding Multiple Columns in Old WordPress Classic Editor</h4>\n<p>In case you haven’t upgraded your WordPress to Gutenberg and still using the <a href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-disable-gutenberg-and-keep-the-classic-editor-in-wordpress/\">Classic Editor</a>, then you’ll need to install a separate plugin for creating a grid column layout. </p>\n<p>First, install and activate the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/lightweight-grid-columns/\" title=\"Lightweight Grid Columns\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Lightweight Grid Columns</a> plugin. For detailed instructions, follow our step by step guide on <a href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/step-by-step-guide-to-install-a-wordpress-plugin-for-beginners/\">how to install a plugin in WordPress</a>.  </p>\n<p>Upon activation, you can create a new post or open an old post to edit. Next, click on the &#8216;Add Columns&#8217; button from the visual editor toolbar. </p>\n<p><img title=\"addcolumnsicon-lightweightgridcolumnsplugin\" src=\"https://cdn3.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/addcolumnsicon-lightweightgridcolumnsplugin.png\" alt=\"Add Columns Icon Lightweight Grid Columns Plugin\" width=\"550\" height=\"253\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61158\" /></p>\n<p>Now you will see a popup window to add your first column. You can choose how much area your column can cover, in desktops, tablets, and mobile devices differently. </p>\n<p>For example, if you set the desktop grid percentage 50%, your column will cover the half row.  </p>\n<p><img title=\"Grid Width Percent - Lightweight Grid Columns\" src=\"https://cdn2.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/desktop-tab-mobile-grid-percentage-columns.png\" alt=\"Grid Width Percent - Lightweight Grid Columns\" width=\"550\" height=\"326\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61159\" /></p>\n<p>There’re plenty of options to set your column width, from 5% to 100% in the interval of 5. You can choose one by clicking the dropdown. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Column Width Options - Grid Percentages\" src=\"https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/colums-percentages.png\" alt=\"Column Width Options - Grid Percentages\" width=\"550\" height=\"326\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61160\" /></p>\n<p>After that, you need to add your column content in the &#8216;Content&#8217; box and then click the &#8220;OK&#8221; button to insert it into your post.  </p>\n<p><img title=\"Add Content to Your Column  - Lightweight Grid Columns Plugin\" src=\"https://cdn3.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/addcontenttogridcolumn.png\" alt=\"Add Content to Your Column  - Lightweight Grid Columns Plugin\" width=\"550\" height=\"326\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61161\" /></p>\n<p>The plugin will now generate the required shortcode with your content and add it to your post editor. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Shortcode and Content Added to WordPress Column\" src=\"https://cdn3.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/shortcodecontentaddedtowpcolumn.png\" alt=\"Shortcode and Content Added to WordPress Column\" width=\"550\" height=\"226\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61162\" /></p>\n<p>Now that your first column is added, you can repeat the process to add more columns. For the last column in row, don&#8217;t forget to check the box &#8216;Last column in row&#8217;. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Shortcode and Content for 2 Columns in WordPress\" src=\"https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/shortcodecontentaddedto2columns.png\" alt=\"Shortcode and Content for 2 Columns in WordPress\" width=\"550\" height=\"257\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61163\" /></p>\n<p>After that, you can save your post and preview it.

By default, WordPress automatically installs minor updates. For major releases, you need to manually initiate the update.</p>\n<p>WordPress also comes with thousands of plugins and themes that you can install on your website. These plugins and themes are maintained by third-party developers which regularly release updates as well.</p>\n<p>These WordPress updates are crucial for the security and stability of your WordPress site.

If government websites can be hacked, then so can yours.</p>\n<p>Backups allow you to quickly restore your WordPress site in case something bad was to happen.</p>\n<p>There are many free and paid <a title=\"7 Best WordPress Backup Plugins Compared (Pros and Cons)\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/7-best-wordpress-backup-plugins-compared-pros-and-cons/\">WordPress backup plugins</a> that you can use. The most important thing you need to know when it comes to backups is that you must regularly save full-site backups to a remote location (not your hosting account).</p>\n<p>We recommend storing it on a cloud service like Amazon, Dropbox, or private clouds like Stash.</p>\n<p>Based on how frequently you update your website, the ideal setting might be either once a day or real-time backups.</p>\n<p>Thankfully this can be easily done by using plugins like <a title=\"VaultPress\" href=\"http://www.vaultpress.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">VaultPress</a> or <a title=\"UpdraftPlus\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/refer/updraftplus/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">UpdraftPlus</a>.

The first thing you will be asked to do is Generate a free API key. This enables audit logging, integrity checking, email alerts, and other important features.</p>\n<p><img title=\"Generate Sucuri API Key\" src=\"https://cdn.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/sucuri-apikey.png\" alt=\"Generate Sucuri API Key\" width=\"550\" height=\"262\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61028\" /></p>\n<p>The next thing, you need to do is click on the &#8216;Hardening&#8217; tab from the settings menu.

The only hardening option that&#8217;s a paid upgrade is the Web Application Firewall which we will explain in the next step, so skip it for now.</p>\n<p>We have also covered a lot of these &#8220;Hardening&#8221; options later in this article for those who want to do it without using a plugin or the ones that require additional steps such as &#8220;Database Prefix change&#8221; or &#8220;Changing the Admin Username&#8221;.</p>\n<p>After the hardening part, the default plugin settings are good enough for most websites and don&#8217;t need any changes. The only thing we recommend customizing is &#8216;Email Alerts&#8217;.</p>\n<p>The default alert settings can clutter your inbox with emails. We recommend receiving alerts for key actions like changes in plugins, new user registration, etc. You can configure the alerts by going to Sucuri Settings » Alerts.</p>\n<p><img title=\"Set up security email alerts\" src=\"https://cdn.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/emailalerts.png\" alt=\"Set up security email alerts\" width=\"550\" height=\"264\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61030\" /></p>\n<p>This WordPress security plugin is very powerful, so browse through all the tabs and settings to see all that it does such as Malware scanning, Audit logs, Failed Login Attempt tracking, etc.</p>\n<h4 id=\"enablesucuri\">Enable Web Application Firewall (WAF)</h4>\n<p>The easiest way to protect your site and be confident about your WordPress security is by using a web application firewall (WAF). </p>\n<p>A website firewall blocks all malicious traffic before it even reaches your website. </p>\n<p><strong>DNS Level Website Firewall</strong> – These firewall route your website traffic through their cloud proxy servers. This allows them to only send genuine traffic to your web server.</p>\n<p><strong>Application Level Firewall</strong> – These firewall plugins examine the traffic once it reaches your server but before loading most WordPress scripts. This method is not as efficient as the DNS level firewall in reducing the server load.</p>\n<p>To learn more, see our list of the <a href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/best-wordpress-firewall-plugins-compared/\" title=\"5 Best WordPress Firewall Plugins Compared\">best WordPress firewall plugins</a>. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Sucuri WAF\" src=\"https://cdn3.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/sucuriwaf.png\" alt=\"Sucuri WAF\" width=\"550\" height=\"291\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61017\" /></p>\n<p>We <strong>use and recommend</strong> <a title=\"Sucuri\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/refer/sucuri/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Sucuri</a> as the best web-application firewall for WordPress.

Basically if you were to be hacked under their watch, they guarantee that they will fix your website (no matter how many pages you have).</p>\n<p>This is a pretty strong warranty because repairing hacked websites is expensive. Security experts normally charge $250 per hour. Whereas you can get the entire Sucuri security stack for $199 per year.</p>\n<p><a title=\"Sucuri\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/refer/sucuri/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Improve your WordPress Security with the Sucuri Firewall »</a></p>\n<p>Sucuri is not the only DNS level firewall provider out there.

Due to added cost, most website owners opted to keep using the insecure protocol. </p>\n<p>To fix this, a non-profit organization called Let&#8217;s Encrypt decided to offer free SSL Certificates to website owners.

Since usernames make up half of login credentials, this made it easier for hackers to do brute-force attacks.</p>\n<p>Thankfully, WordPress has since changed this and now requires you to select a custom username at the time of <a title=\"How to Install WordPress – Complete WordPress Installation Tutorial\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/how-to-install-wordpress/\">installing WordPress</a>.</p>\n<p>However, some 1-click WordPress installers, still set the default admin username to &#8220;admin&#8221;.

In the wrong hands, this feature can be a security risk which is why we recommend turning it off.</p>\n<p><img title=\"Disable file editing in WordPress\" src=\"https://cdn3.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/fileeditinwp.png\" alt=\"Disable file editing in WordPress\" width=\"550\" height=\"311\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61019\" /></p>\n<p>You can easily do this by adding the following code in your <a title=\"How to Edit wp-config.php File in WordPress\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-edit-wp-config-php-file-in-wordpress/\">wp-config.php</a> file.</p>\n<pre class=\"brush: php; title: ; notranslate\">\r\n// Disallow file edit\r\ndefine( \'DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT\', true );\r\n</pre>\n<p>Alternatively, you can do this with 1-click using the Hardening feature in the free <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Sucuri\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/refer/sucuri/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">Sucuri</a> plugin that we mentioned above.</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"#contents\">Back to Top ↑</a>]</p>\n<h4 id=\"fileexecution\">Disable PHP File Execution in Certain WordPress Directories</h4>\n<p>Another way to harden your WordPress security is by disabling PHP file execution in directories where it&#8217;s not needed such as /wp-content/uploads/.</p>\n<p>You can do this by opening a text editor like Notepad and paste this code:</p>\n<pre class=\"brush: php; title: ; notranslate\">\r\n&lt;Files *.php&gt;\r\ndeny from all\r\n&lt;/Files&gt;\r\n</pre>\n<p>Next, you need to save this file as <strong>.htaccess</strong> and upload it to /wp-content/uploads/ folders on your website using an <a title=\"How to use FTP to upload files to WordPress for Beginners\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-use-ftp-to-upload-files-to-wordpress-for-beginners/\">FTP client</a>.</p>\n<p>For more detailed explanation, see our guide on <a title=\"How to Disable PHP Execution in Certain WordPress Directories\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-disable-php-execution-in-certain-wordpress-directories/\">how to disable PHP execution in certain WordPress directories</a></p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can do this with 1-click using the Hardening feature in the free Sucuri plugin that we mentioned above.</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"#contents\">Back to Top ↑</a>]</p>\n<h4 id=\"limitloginattempts\">Limit Login Attempts</h4>\n<p>By default, WordPress allows users to try to login as many time as they want. This leaves your WordPress site vulnerable to brute force attacks. Hackers try to crack passwords by trying to login with different combinations.</p>\n<p>This can be easily fixed by limiting the failed login attempts a user can make. If you&#8217;re using the web application firewall mentioned earlier, then this is automatically taken care of.</p>\n<p>However, if you don&#8217;t have the firewall setup, then proceed with the steps below.</p>\n<p>First, you need to install and activate the <a title=\"Login LockDown\" href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/login-lockdown/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Login LockDown</a> plugin. For more details, see our step by step guide on <a title=\"Step by Step Guide to Install a WordPress Plugin for Beginners\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/step-by-step-guide-to-install-a-wordpress-plugin-for-beginners/\">how to install a WordPress plugin</a>.</p>\n<p>Upon activation, visit <strong>Settings &raquo; Login LockDown</strong> page to setup the plugin.</p>\n<p><img title=\"Login Lockdown options\" src=\"https://cdn2.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/loginlockdownoptions.png\" alt=\"Login Lockdown options\" width=\"550\" height=\"378\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61020\" /></p>\n<p>For detailed instructions, take a look at our guide on <a title=\"How and Why you should Limit Login Attempts in your WordPress\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-and-why-you-should-limit-login-attempts-in-your-wordpress/\">how and why you should limit login attempts in WordPress</a>.</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"#contents\">Back to Top ↑</a>]</p>\n<h4 id=\"twofactorauth\">Add Two Factor Authentication</h4>\n<p>Two-factor authentication technique requires users to log in by using a two-step authentication method. The first one is the username and password, and the second step requires you to authenticate using a separate device or app.</p>\n<p>Most top online websites like Google, Facebook, Twitter, allow you to enable it for your accounts. You can also add the same functionality to your WordPress site. </p>\n<p>First, you need to install and activate the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/two-factor-authentication/\" title=\"Two Factor Authentication\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Two Factor Authentication</a> plugin. Upon activation, you need to click on the &#8216;Two Factor Auth&#8217; link in WordPress admin sidebar. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Two Factor Authenticator settings\" src=\"https://cdn.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/twofactorbarcode.png\" alt=\"Two Factor Authenticator settings\" width=\"550\" height=\"273\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61080\" /></p>\n<p>Next, you need to install and open an authenticator app on your phone. There are several of them available like Google Authenticator, Authy, and LastPass Authenticator. </p>\n<p>We recommend using <a href=\"https://lastpass.com/auth/\" title=\"LastPass Authenticator\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">LastPass Authenticator</a> or <a href=\"https://authy.com/\" title=\"Authy\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Authy</a> because they both allow you to back up your accounts to the cloud. This is very useful in case your phone is lost, reset, or you buy a new phone. All your account logins will be easily restored. </p>\n<p>We will be using the LastPass Authenticator for the tutorial. However, instructions are similar for all auth apps. Open your authenticator app, and then click on the Add button. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Add website\" src=\"https://cdn3.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/addsite.png\" alt=\"Add website\" width=\"550\" height=\"320\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61081\" /></p>\n<p>You will be asked if you&#8217;d like to scan a site manually or scan the bar code. Select the scan bar code option and then point your phone&#8217;s camera on the QRcode shown on the plugin&#8217;s settings page. </p>\n<p>That&#8217;s all, your authentication app will now save it. Next time you log in to your website, you will be asked for the two-factor auth code after you enter your password. </p>\n<p><img title=\"Enter your two-factor auth code\" src=\"https://cdn4.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/enter2stepauth.png\" alt=\"Enter your two-factor auth code\" width=\"550\" height=\"256\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-61083\" /></p>\n<p>Simply open the authenticator app on your phone and enter the code you see on it. </p>\n<p>[<a href=\"#contents\">Back to Top ↑</a>]</p>\n<h4 id=\"wpdbprefix\">Change WordPress Database Prefix</h4>\n<p>By default, WordPress uses wp_ as the prefix for all tables in your <a title=\"Beginner’s Guide to WordPress Database Management with phpMyAdmin\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/beginners-guide-to-wordpress-database-management-with-phpmyadmin/\">WordPress database</a>.

This is why it is highly recommended that you turn off directory indexing and browsing.</p>\n<p>You need to connect to your website using FTP or cPanel&#8217;s file manager. Next, locate the .htaccess file in your website&#8217;s root directory.

What are your goals and what features would you like to see on your website.</p>\n<p>For example, you can write down things like: have a blog section, photo gallery, online store, reservation system, contact form, slider, etc.</p>\n<p>If you are unsure about what you want, then check out your competitors or other websites for inspiration.</p>\n<p>Most website builders offer a drag and drop user interface to build your website. You can take advantage of the trial accounts to test drive before you make your final decision.</p>\n<p>Next, you need to consider your growth options. Will you be adding regular updates to your website? Do you need a blog section? Would you be selling more products on your website in the future?</p>\n<p>You need to make sure that the website builder you choose is capable of handling your needs as your business grows.</p>\n<p>That being said, let&#8217;s take a look at the top website builder platforms to make your website without hiring a developer.</p>\n<h4 id=\"bestwebsitebuilder\"><a title=\"WordPress\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/refer/bluehost/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">1.

This means that you have maximum control over your website compared to any other builder in this list.</p>\n<p>Unlike other website builders, you will need a <a title=\"How to Choose the Best WordPress Hosting?\" href=\"https://www.wpbeginner.com/wordpress-hosting/\">WordPress hosting</a> account and host your own website (this is a lot easier than it sounds).</p>\n<p><strong>Pros:</strong></p>\n<p>WordPress gives you complete control on every aspect of your website.

You can start with one of their pre-designed templates. They have a number of templates designed for surveys and questionnaires, feedback, registrations, applications, and more. </p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/typeform-templates.jpg\" alt=\"tyepform-templates\" width=\"740\" height=\"416\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-230003\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/typeform-templates.jpg 740w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/typeform-templates-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" /></p>\n<p>When you choose a template it comes with pre-written questions. If you want to change them, simply click on the text and start writing.

First, you need to determine the type of website you want to build. Depending on what kind of website you want to build, your hosting service provider requirements will vary. </p>\n<p>For instance, if you want to <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/how-to-start-a-blog-step-by-step/\">start a blog</a> or small to medium website, you won&#8217;t need to choose a VPS hosting service. But, if you want to build an eCommerce website that you expect to get a ton of traffic, you&#8217;ll probably need to go with a VPS or dedicated hosting.</p>\n<p>After you&#8217;ve decided on what type of website you&#8217;re going to build and the capabilities that are required for it, there are other factors you should look for in a good web host, including: </p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cost</li>\n<li>Money Back Guarantee</li>\n<li>Support</li>\n<li>Load Time</li>\n<li>Uptime</li>\n<li>User-Friendliness</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Choosing a web host shouldn&#8217;t be a quick decision.

It&#8217;s one of the newer email marketing tools on the market, coming out in 2013 and later acquired by the people behind LeadPages. But, it&#8217;s quickly become one of the top marketing automation solutions for businesses of all kinds, including publishers, eCommerce merchants and small businesses.</p>\n<p>Drip offers seamless integration with many 3rd-party tools, so you can easily turn customer data into action. For example, with WooCommerce integration, you can send purchase data and other important user information to your Drip account. You can then turn those insights into revenue by triggering automations based on your business goals. </p>\n<h3>Drip Review: What Makes Drip Unique?</h3>\n<p>You may already know that Drip enables you to collect email addresses, add users to various drip campaigns, send out autoresponder emails, and split test your campaigns. But what makes Drip unique? </p>\n<p>Well, <a href=\"https://www.drip.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Drip</a> is NOT your typical, cheap email marketing service that simply does the job. It helps you understand your audience by collecting possibly ALL user data from your website, plugins and 3rd-party tools, and then let you turn those insights into revenue by sending personalized emails that are likely to be opened and engaged.</p>\n<p>Let’s go over some of the killer, unique features that Drip offers.</p>\n<h3>Drip Feature #1: Event Tracking</h3>\n<p>One of Drip&#8217;s most unique features is their Event Tracking. Many email marketing services offer tags to help manage your email list. Tags are used to describe your relationship with a customer. You can assign tags to each customer to show what their history is with your company. For instance, if they&#8217;ve bought certain products, if they&#8217;ve visited certain pages, and so on. Then you can send an email to all of the people on your list that have a certain tag in order to send more personalized emails. </p>\n<p>But instead of just having tags, Drip takes it a step further with event tracking. </p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-event-trigger.jpg\" alt=\"drip-event-tracking\" width=\"723\" height=\"500\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229477\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-event-trigger.jpg 723w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-event-trigger-300x207.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 723px) 100vw, 723px\" /></p>\n<p>Drip&#8217;s event tracking actually tracks subscriber activity and stores and transfers that information. So, instead of having tags without any data behind them, Drip tracks all of that info for you.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/drip/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-nojs=\"true\" >Drip</a> provides you with the action performed (like submitted form &#8220;A&#8221;), the date and time the action was performed, and metadata (like if they used a coupon with a purchase). This allows you to get really specific with the emails you send. The more specific and personalized an email is to a subscriber, the more likely they&#8217;ll pay attention and take the desired action.  </p>\n<h3>Drip Feature #2: Visual Workflows </h3>\n<p>Another unique feature Drip offers is their Visual Workflows. Visual workflows help you easily design advanced email campaigns. Instead of building a flat email campaign like &#8220;If they bought this product, wait 1 day, then send this email&#8221;, you can create an email campaign map with smart, sophisticated logic. </p>\n<p>You can design a campaign that&#8217;s more like &#8220;If they bought this product, then send them this. If they didn&#8217;t buy this product, then send this message instead.&#8221; </p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-workflow.jpg\" alt=\"drip review-workflow\" width=\"740\" height=\"335\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229476\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-workflow.jpg 740w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-workflow-300x136.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" /></p>\n<p>Visually seeing the workflow will help you build complicated, highly-specific automated email marketing campaigns to perfectly meet your needs. Visual workflows can also track where your subscribers are in the process so you can easily track their progress. </p>\n<h3>Drip Feature #3: Custom Fields</h3>\n<p>Many email service providers provide fields for the individual subscribers first name, last name, etc. But with <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/drip/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-nojs=\"true\" >Drip</a> you can add your own custom fields to maintain unique data for each individual subscriber, such as their location, business type, an affiliate id, where they opted in from, and so on. You could even add custom fields based on what blog posts your subscribers have read or what pages of your online store they browse. </p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-custom-fields.jpg\" alt=\"drip-custom-fields\" width=\"740\" height=\"244\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229478\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-custom-fields.jpg 740w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-custom-fields-300x99.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" /></p>\n<p>You can add as many custom fields as you want. And since Drip can use the custom fields as a trigger for an automation rule, you&#8217;re able to create super personalized email campaigns. </p>\n<h3>Pricing and Support for Drip</h3>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/drip/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-nojs=\"true\" >Drip</a> offers 3 different pricing plans: Basic, Pro, and Enterprise. The plan you choose depends on how many email subscribers you have. </p>\n<p>The Basic plan is $49 per month for up to 2500 people and you can send unlimited emails. The Pro plan is $122 per month for up to 5000 people and unlimited emails. Finally, there&#8217;s the Enterprise plan for over 5000 people and the price per month varies depending on how large your email list is. They provide an online calculator to determine your monthly cost for the Enterprise plan. </p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-pricing.jpg\" alt=\"drip-review-pricing\" width=\"740\" height=\"388\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229454\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-pricing.jpg 740w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/drip-pricing-300x157.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" /></p>\n<p>As you see, you can start out with the Basic plan if you have 2500 email subscribers or less. But, as your company and your email list grows, you&#8217;ll need to upgrade to a more expensive plan. </p>\n<p>Drip is one of the more pricey email marketing services but you&#8217;re paying for access to all of Drip&#8217;s unique and powerful features. You do have the opportunity to try out Drip for free though with their 2 week free trial. </p>\n<p>When you choose Drip you&#8217;re provided with plenty of support.

However, now it does a lot more than email marketing – from landing pages, remarketing ads to postcards. </p>\n<p>Currently, MailChimp is an all-in-one marketing suite to grow your business. Just like any all-in-one marketing suites, there is a bit of learning curve to use MailChimp. Not to mention, the more features that are available out of the box, the steeper the learning curve will be. And MailChimp is no different. </p>\n<p>MailChimp also lacks some cool automation features like Event, which gives more details about subscriber activity. </p>\n<p>So if your desired feature isn’t offered by MailChimp or need a more intuitive solution, then you might want to find a MailChimp alternative.  </p>\n<p>In this article, we’re going to take a closer look at some of the best MailChimp alternatives.</p>\n<h3><a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/constant-contact/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Constant Contact\" rel=\"nofollow\">1.

While it’s true that many food and recipe websites exist on the internet, you shouldn’t let that stop you from following your dream. </p>\n<p>The simple truth is: everyone eats food, and fresh recipes are always going to be needed. As a unique individual with your own writing voice and style, you’ll bring something special to the table just by being you.</p>\n<p>That said, in order to stand out from the crowd, you’ll need to hone in on your individual uniqueness. You’ll need to figure out exactly what makes your content truly different. To do that, you’ll need to choose a niche within the food and recipe genre.</p>\n<p>The most successful food and recipe websites are specialized. They’ve chosen a niche. Rather than serving up mediocre content in numerous categories, let your audience feast on 1 or 2 niche categories catered by a master content chef. Just like a fine dining experience, when it comes to a successful food blog, quality over quantity always wins the day.</p>\n<p>Examples of food and recipe niches are:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Eating on a budget</li>\n<li>Vegan or vegetarian meals</li>\n<li>Soups and stews</li>\n<li>Fried foods</li>\n<li>Health-conscious cooking</li>\n<li>Soy-free, gluten-free, nut-free, or sugar-free recipes</li>\n<li>Cultural dishes</li>\n<li>Kid-friendly foods</li>\n<li>Cooking with insects</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Those are just a few suggestions off the tops of our heads. We’re sure you can think of more. The wonderful thing about starting a food and recipe website is that the niche possibilities are endless. Take your time and dig deep into your foodie soul. Just as the tastiest dishes are crafted with love, your food and recipe blog should also stem from the heart. What foods are you the most passionate about?</p>\n<p>Once you’ve chosen your food niche, follow the steps below for the recipe to success.</p>\n<h3>Step 1: Choose a Domain Name and Hosting for Your Food Site</h3>\n<p>The first step to create a food and recipe website is to <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/how-to-make-a-website-step-by-step/\" title=\"How to Make a Website - Step by Step (with Pictures)\">build a WordPress website</a>. </p>\n<p>Once you have the basic framework down for a &#8220;generic&#8221; website, you can then tweak it to your heart&#8217;s content to turn it into the food and recipe website of your dreams.</p>\n<p>To do this, you&#8217;ll need a domain name and web hosting.</p>\n<p>A domain name is your website&#8217;s address on the internet, also known as your URL. For example, our domain name is IsItWP.com; and that&#8217;s what you type into your web browser to find us online. Your website domain name should be related to the food niche you chose. Utilize keywords connected to your food or recipe genre.</p>\n<p>If you need help choosing a domain name for your website, we recommend using our <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/domain-name-generator/\">free domain name generator</a>.</p>\n<p>Web hosting, on the other hand, is where your website&#8217;s files are stored. Think of it this way: if your domain name is your address, your web hosting is your house. Makes sense so far, right? This is why you need both a domain name AND web hosting to build a proper website.</p>\n<p>Fortunately, you can get both of those elements for a discounted rate from our friends at <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/bluehost/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Bluehost</a>!</p>\n<p>Bluehost is offering IsItWP readers a free domain name, free SSL certificate (to secure your site), and a MASSIVE discount on WordPress web hosting.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/bluehost/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"btn ltgreen light\">Click Here to Claim This Exclusive Bluehost Offer &raquo;</a></p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;re all set with a domain name and web hosting, it&#8217;s time to move onto the second step!</p>\n<h3>Step 2: Install WordPress for Your Food Blog</h3>\n<p>If you chose Bluehost (recommended above) for your web hosting, installing WordPress will be easy.</p>\n<p>In the past, Bluehost offered a 1-click installation for WordPress. It couldn’t possibly get any easier than that, right? Incorrect. Bluehost took it up another notch and made the process completely effortless by pre-installing WordPress, by default, on new websites.</p>\n<p>Now, all you’ll have to do is choose a theme for your WordPress site, enter in your site’s title, write your tagline, and you’ll be ready to rock. Let’s see how that looks, step-by-step:</p>\n<p>For the theme, just choose anything for now. You can always choose a different theme later on (we have some awesome ones to choose from later on in this guide). Your primary goal right now is to get started with WordPress. All the other little details can be sorted out and modified later.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/pick-a-theme.png\" alt=\"pick a theme\" width=\"600\" height=\"276\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229110\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/pick-a-theme.png 600w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/pick-a-theme-300x138.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" /></p>\n<p>On the next page, write your title and tagline in the given fields.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/create-a-new-wordpress-blog.jpg\" alt=\"create a new wordpress website\" width=\"775\" height=\"472\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229111\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/create-a-new-wordpress-blog.jpg 775w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/create-a-new-wordpress-blog-300x183.jpg 300w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/create-a-new-wordpress-blog-768x468.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" /></p>\n<p>After filling out your details, click <strong>Next</strong>. Bluehost will then automatically install WordPress for you, hassle-free, and you’ll see a screen like this once the installation has successfully finished:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/wordpress-installation-successful.jpg\" alt=\"wordpress installation complete\" width=\"775\" height=\"478\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229112\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/wordpress-installation-successful.jpg 775w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/wordpress-installation-successful-300x185.jpg 300w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/wordpress-installation-successful-768x474.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" /></p>\n<p>Your WordPress login credentials will be sent to your email account.</p>\n<p>Now that you have WordPress installed on your website, you can log into your WordPress dashboard by appending <strong>wp-admin</strong> to your URL. Your login URL will look something like this: https://yoursite.com/wp-admin</p>\n<p>Use the credentials you were emailed to log into your brand new WordPress website.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/wordpress-login.jpg\" alt=\"wordpress login page\" width=\"775\" height=\"441\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229113\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/wordpress-login.jpg 775w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/wordpress-login-300x171.jpg 300w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/wordpress-login-768x437.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" /></p>\n<p>If you didn’t choose Bluehost for your web hosting, you can read our complete guide on <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/install-wordpress-complete-wordpress-installation-tutorial/\" title=\"How to Install WordPress – The Complete WordPress Installation Tutorial\">how to install WordPress</a> for more information. We cover every possible scenario, including how to install WordPress manually from your computer.</p>\n<p>Once you have WordPress installed, move onto the third step.</p>\n<h3>Step 3: Choose the Perfect Food Theme</h3>\n<p>If you’re looking for a quick, free theme to get you started, you can download and install one from the WordPress theme repository. You can access this from your WordPress dashboard.</p>\n<p>Simply click on <strong>Appearance &raquo; Themes</strong> and then click <strong>Add New</strong>.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Add-New-Theme.png\" alt=\"Add New Theme\" width=\"775\" height=\"303\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-227885\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Add-New-Theme.png 775w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Add-New-Theme-300x117.png 300w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Add-New-Theme-768x300.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" /></p>\n<p>From there, you can search for a free WordPress theme you like using their search function:</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Search-Themes.png\" alt=\"Search Themes\" width=\"775\" height=\"370\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-227886\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Search-Themes.png 775w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Search-Themes-300x143.png 300w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Search-Themes-768x367.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" /></p>\n<p>Or, if you already have a theme downloaded, you can upload it by clicking the <strong>Upload Theme</strong> button at the top of that page.</p>\n<p>Once you find the theme you desire, click <strong>Install</strong> and <strong>Activate</strong> to have it go live on your site. From there, you can customize it from <strong>Appearance &raquo; Customize</strong>.</p>\n<p>To make it even easier for you, we’ve compiled a list of our favorite WordPress themes for food and recipe websites below. If you don’t want to go through the hassle of searching for a theme on your own, feel free to choose one of our recommendations.</p>\n<p>Keep in mind that using a built-for-purpose WordPress theme (ie: a food and recipe theme) comes with a unique set of pros and cons. The major ‘pro’ is that the theme will come pre-loaded with everything you’ll need to create a professional-looking website in the food niche. However, the primary ‘con’ is that these pre-loaded features can restrict your flexibility when it comes to customization. </p>\n<p>If you want to hit the ground running and jump right into launching your food or recipe website with a pre-built framework, then the themes listed below are fantastic options. But, if you have a specific vision in mind that requires massive customization, you’d be better off choosing on of our favorite <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/top-wordpress-themes/\">multipurpose WordPress themes</a> and then tweaking it with food or recipe-specific plugins.</p>\n<p>The following themes are all responsive and will look great on any device:</p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/wpzoom-foodica/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">1.

Most beginners who&#8217;ve just started their sites don&#8217;t consider list building as important as it actually is. Before long, they realize the value of an email list, and how it can help them get more genuine visitors on their website or blog. And while it&#8217;s never &#8216;too late&#8217; to start building a list of the people whom you think are important for your business, why not get a head start?</p>\n<p>In this article, we&#8217;re going to show you why you need to build an email list (right away) and how you can build your own email list.</p>\n<h3>Introduction to Email Lists</h3>\n<p>When talking about email lists, what we actually want you to know is the process of collecting data about your potential clients or visitors. This data includes their name, email, phone number, etc.</p>\n<p>There are multiple methods you can use to collect this data and build your own email lists. You&#8217;ll also find many email marketing services on the internet that can help store the data of your email lists and send personalized emails to all your subscribers easily. These email marketing services were built to promote your business and maximize your revenue.</p>\n<p>For example, you can get permission from your users by adding a check option on the subscription form to send regular updates, promotional content, and greetings to them.</p>\n<h3>Why Do You Need an Email List? (Right Away)</h3>\n<p>Many research studies have proven that email marketing is a win-win opportunity. Website visitors who willingly joined your email list and are allowing you to send emails to them are fully interested in your brand or service. These subscribers will read your emails and visit your website. </p>\n<p>You can also convert your subscribers into customers because of the trust you build with them. Email marketing is more personal and beneficial than any other promotional methods, like social media marketing.</p>\n<p>Below, we&#8217;ll list some of the key points on the importance of an email list:</p>\n<p><strong>Customized Emails:</strong> Using an email marketing service, you can create interactive, customized emails for your subscribers. These emails help get more attraction and traffic to your landing pages. You can also take advantage of customized emails when running a promotional campaign.</p>\n<p><strong>Targeted Users:</strong> It&#8217;s simple. Sell to those who want to buy from you. The website visitors who joined your subscribers list out of self interest are your most genuine audience and you need them for your business. It&#8217;s easy for you to create an attractive deal and share it with your subscribers. A win-win, again.</p>\n<p><strong>Personalized Content:</strong> Emails are personal and direct. The marketing software you choose does the magic for you by sending emails to your subscribers that mention their names in the email&#8217;s subject. It creates a powerful impact when they see their name pop up in your email. These subscribers will be more likely to read your personalized email than any generic promotional content on a social channel.</p>\n<p><strong>Email is more effective:</strong> When you promote anything on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc., it may get attention but it&#8217;s not the same as the results you&#8217;ll see with an email.<br />\nIn fact, according to DreamGrow, email is a more effective sales and communications channel than social networking sites.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exacttarget-social-media-vs-email-675x260-e1549652569998.png\" alt=\"social-media-vs-email\" width=\"639\" height=\"239\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229256\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exacttarget-social-media-vs-email-675x260-e1549652569998.png 639w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/exacttarget-social-media-vs-email-675x260-e1549652569998-300x112.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 639px) 100vw, 639px\" /></p>\n<p>Now that you know why it&#8217;s important for you to have an email list, the next thing you&#8217;ll need to learn is how to build one.</p>\n<h3>How to Build an Email List (Step-by-Step)</h3>\n<p>Before we start, you should know that building an email list can take time. It&#8217;s an on-going process and you&#8217;ll need to be patient. You&#8217;ll also need a few tools to build your own email list like a website or personal blog, an email marketing software, subscription forms, convertible optin popups, etc.</p>\n<p>If you have a website or blog, then you can go ahead and start creating a subscription form.

You may have seen a subscription box when browsing other websites online.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/subscriptionform.jpg\" alt=\"Subscription form\" width=\"775\" height=\"380\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-228410\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/subscriptionform.jpg 775w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/subscriptionform-300x147.jpg 300w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/subscriptionform-768x377.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" /></p>\n<p>Your regular users will most likely subscribe to your email list using a subscription form. This form can be simple, including just name and email fields.</p>\n<p>To create a subscription form on your WordPress site, you&#8217;ll need to install and activate the <a href=\"https://wpforms.com/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"WPForms\">WPForms</a> plugin. Check out our guide on <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/install-wordpress-plugin/\" title=\"How to Install a WordPress Plugin\">how to install a WordPress plugin</a>.</p>\n<p>WPForms is the <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/best-wordpress-contact-form-plugins/\" title=\"7 Best WordPress Contact Form Plugins Compared (2019)\">best WordPress contact form plugin</a> and easily integrates with multiple email marketing services like <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wordpress-plugins/mailchimp-for-wordpress/\" title=\"MailChimp for WordPress Review: Integrate MailChimp Into WordPress\">MailChimp</a>, <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wordpress-plugins/constant-contact/\" title=\"Constant Contact Review 2019 – The Best Email Marketing Software\">Constant Contact</a>, AWeber, and GetResponse. You can connect with any of these services to create your email list and send bulk emails.</p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: Connect an Email Marketing Service to Your Subscription Form</strong></p>\n<p>An email marketing service can do multiple things for you.</p>\n<p>When a user fills out the subscription form on your website, it properly stores their data and manages the user&#8217;s information based on lists they subscribed to. It enables you to send fully customized emails to all users on the list.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/emailmarketing.jpg\" alt=\"Email marketing\" width=\"775\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-228417\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/emailmarketing.jpg 775w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/emailmarketing-300x139.jpg 300w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/emailmarketing-768x357.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" /></p>\n<p>You can also track how many emails are opened and create custom reports to send more effective emails. Some of the top email marketing services allow you to do A/B testing to find out which type of emails are most likely to be opened by your subscribers.</p>\n<p>We recommend using <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/constant-contact/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Constant Contact\" rel=\"nofollow\">Constant Contact</a>, the most popular email marketing software, as it works smoothly with WPForms. They also offer a 30-day free trial which means you can test their service for a month without paying them.

Why?</p>\n<p>Because the users visited your website once and didn&#8217;t subscribe to your email list are gone. You may not see them on your website ever again. That means you need to take action before they leave your site. Here come highly convertible optin popups to the rescue!</p>\n<p>We recommend using OptinMonster, the best lead generation and optin form software in the world. It&#8217;ll change the way your subscription form appears to users.

We recommend you move your GoDaddy website builder site to WordPress.org. Check out our other post for a detailed explanation of the <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wordpress-com-vs-wordpress-org-one-really-better/\">differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org</a>. </p>\n<h3 id=\"hosting\">1. GoDaddy to WordPress: Choose WordPress Hosting</h3>\n<p>In order to <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/how-to-make-a-website-step-by-step/\">make a website on WordPress</a>, you need WordPress hosting. Website hosting is where your site is hosted and your files are stored. </p>\n<p>If you already have hosting with <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/godaddy-hosting/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-nojs=\"true\" >GoDaddy&#8217;s hosting service</a>, then you&#8217;re good to go! You can use GoDaddy&#8217;s hosting service with your new WordPress site. </p>\n<p>But if you need to choose a new hosting service for your WordPress site, we recommend choosing <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/bluehost/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-nojs=\"true\" >Bluehost</a>. </p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/bluehost/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-nojs=\"true\" ><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/bluehost-refer.png\" alt=\"bluehost-wordpress-hosting\" width=\"740\" height=\"404\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-228328\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/bluehost-refer.png 740w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/bluehost-refer-300x164.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" /></a></p>\n<p>Bluehost is one of the most popular hosting companies in the world and it&#8217;s an officially recommended hosting provider by WordPress.org. Plus, IsItWP readers get an awesome deal when they sign up with Bluehost. </p>\n<p>They&#8217;re offering our users a free domain name, free SSL, and 65% off on WordPress hosting. </p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/bluehost/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"btn ltgreen light\">Click Here to Claim This Exclusive Bluehost Offer &raquo;</a></p>\n<p>With <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/refer/bluehost/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-nojs=\"true\" >Bluehost</a>, you&#8217;ll only be paying as low as $2.75 per month to start your WordPress website. </p>\n<p>If you later decide you want to switch your WordPress site to another web host, check out our post on <a href=\"https://www.isitwp.com/switch-one-web-host-another-without-downtime-step-by-step/\">how to move from one web host to another without any downtime</a>. </p>\n<h3 id=\"backup\">2. Back up Your GoDaddy Website Builder Content</h3>\n<p>Before you start to move GoDaddy website builder site to WordPress, you need to back up your website content. If you have just a couple pages of content and images, then you can back up by simply copying the text into text files on your computer and saving the images to your computer as well. </p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/backup-site.jpg\" alt=\"backup-site\" width=\"740\" height=\"386\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229089\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/backup-site.jpg 740w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/backup-site-300x156.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" /></p>\n<p>To better organize your backup content, you can save all of your homepage text in a text editor file called &#8220;Homepage&#8221; and all of your homepage images in a folder called &#8220;Homepage&#8221; and so on. Do this for each page of your website. </p>\n<p>Another quick option to back up your website content is to visit each of your website pages on your browser. On your keyboard, press CTRL+S (Command+S for Mac), this will bring up the save dialog box. Make sure to choose &#8220;Webpage, Complete&#8221; in the &#8220;format&#8221; or &#8220;save as type&#8221; field. Save each of your website pages this way. </p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/backup-site-2.jpg\" alt=\"backup-site-to-move-wordpress\" width=\"740\" height=\"379\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229090\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/backup-site-2.jpg 740w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/backup-site-2-300x154.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" /></p>\n<p>You can also use a free tool like <a href=\"https://www.httrack.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">HTTrack</a> which allows you to save any web page to your PC. Just download HTTrack and enter in the URL of your website. The tool will then make a copy of your website on your computer.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/htttrack.jpg\" alt=\"httrack-tool\" width=\"740\" height=\"392\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229092\" srcset=\"https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/htttrack.jpg 740w, https://www.isitwp.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/htttrack-300x159.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" /> </p>\n<p>HTTrack is certainly a faster way to backup all of your website files. The only downside is that since the GoDaddy website builder and its themes store their files on different CDN servers, which makes it difficult to download all of your images. So, if your website is mostly text and you don&#8217;t mind losing your images, HTTrack is a fine option. </p>\n<p>Before moving on to the next step of migrating from GoDaddy to WordPress, double-check that you&#8217;ve got all of your website files downloaded. Once you&#8217;ve disabled the
