Is Adobe Muse a good option?
-
We work with a number of clients that need a small website. Is Adobe Muse a good software for building solid, optimized websites? Is Muse better then Dreamweaver? Input please.
-
Not used it myself, but Muse has a bit of a reputation for outputting truly horrendous source code. That is never the best start when building a site. What I have seen of the output seemed to contain an awful lot of nested DIVs.
In itself that isn't a problem, but it really bloated the code which isn't great.
We used to use Dreamweaver a lot. That has a bit of a name for messy code too, but you can at least control that. Out of the two I'd opt for Dreamweaver. Given the choice I'd prefer a decent text based IDE.

Rewrite a good post
Hello I have a blog post from 2015 that is ranking very well on Google but I have a terrible bounce rate of more than 98% for this landing page. This post is bringing 4 more visits than the rest of my website pages so I need to make people stay in the site. I don't want to lose my rankings so my question is: Is it better to modify this post or to write a new post and delete the old one? Thank you

Value of having a good crawl budget?
Hi, I've seen several questions where people give advice on how to increase the crawl budget. What I haven't seen anyone comment is what the value of this really is if you have many pages that doesn't get updated very often. Take for example the typical agency page - 50 pages, most of them rarely gets updates. In a monthly basis normally 10% of the website gets updated. Is there really any value then of having 100% of the website crawled on a daily basis?

Domain Types/Extensions – Are .infos any good ?
Hi I know general concensus is to stay away from the non established domain suffix types and concentrate on .coms .co.uk’s etc etc. But i have an aged .info domain that has some content on it related to a online news paper i have on that subject (on the news paper providers domain sub-folder currently) which i want to focus more time on and put on its own dedicated domain. So i want to upload it to this aged .info domain. However waste of time if .info domains are bad for seo etc Does anyone have any experience of .info doing well in serps or should i totally scrap the idea and try find a new .com etc type domain ? My .info has been live with related content for 7 years so hoping that should count for something 🙂 All Best

Good technical parameters worst load time.
I have recently created a page and added expires headers, nonconfigured e-tags and gzip to htaccess code and just after that according to pingdom tools my page load time has doupled although my yslow ponts went from 78 to 92. I always get a lite bit lost with this technical issue. I mean obviously a site should not produce worse results with adding these parameters and this increase in page load time should rather be due to bandwith usage. I suppose I should leave this stuff in the htacces. Than what is an accurate way to know if you have done a real improvement to your site or your load time has really went up? This question is more up to date with css sprites as I always read that sometimes spriting every picture is a waste of resources. How can you decide when to stop?
