There's nothing wrong being a farmer. Farming is not solely for 3rd class or drop outs.



Congratulations to him, though. More grace.

I remember going to cyber cafes as a young boy to browse the internet and I’ll spend long hours there; really because my Aunty owned the place. The experience I had each time I was in the café was thrilling and exciting, although many of the websites took time to load and the videos always buffered because the internet speed wasn’t 3G or 4G. This was around year 2000.

A lot has changed between then and now. Websites are now responsive and accessible with smartphones. Network service providers are providing 4G services and experimenting with 5G. Creating a website nowadays is much less complicated than it was a decade ago; platforms like Wix and WordPress make it easy for people to create beautiful and functional websites for their business within a short period of time.

To help you figure out the website optimization game, take the time to learn some of these mind-blowing facts about your website speed. Each provides insight into subtle changes that you could make to improve your website.

1. The average attention span has decreased from 12 to 8 seconds
A goldfish, at 9 seconds, has a longer attention span than the average internet user. You must deliver the content to the audience in the shortest amount of time possible. Otherwise, you risk having a high bounce rate and the potential customer leaving to get what they need elsewhere.

2. Only 0.5 seconds is required to form an opinion
Once the website has loaded, the average user will take half a second to make up their mind on certain aspects of the website. Therefore, you must make a good first impression. The use of images, background theme, and content layout must be in line with the expectations of your average user.

3. 47% of users expect websites to load within 2 seconds
Pay attention to website loading speeds – they must be under 2 seconds. Otherwise you run the risk of frustrating some of your website visitors. Most people would rather use your competitor than stick around for slow loading speeds.

4. There has been a 14% increase in the average connection speed
This means you can get away with webpages that use up more bandwidth without decreasing in the loading speed. It somewhat frees up your creativity, as fewer restrictions are imposed on how many elements you can have per page.

To conclude, you want your website to be as fast as possible. How fast the content on your website loads will have an impact on your rankings and user interactions with your site. This is why you need to ensure that your website is moving as quickly as possible, at all times for optimal search results and user experience.

Google has positioned themselves as the leading SEO (Search Engine Optimization) platform. The potential to reach customers on Google is massive. Because of their market dominance, they have had to provide tools (paid and free), that users can use to boost their SEO ranking. Some of these tools are used frequently, while some gets ignored.

Below are four free tools by Google to help boost your SEO ranking:


Google Analytics - Google Analytics allows you to track and understand your web and online customer's behavior, user experience, online content, device functionality and more. Simply put, Google Analytics puts several lines of tracking code into the code of your website. The code records various activities of your users when they visit your website, along with the attributes (such as age, gender, interests) of those users. It then sends all that information to the GA (Google Analytics) server once the user exits your website.
Next, Google Analytics aggregates the data collected from your website in multiple ways, and presents it to you professionally. Google Analytics is super powerful on its own. But when you combine it with the Google Search Console? It’s even MORE powerful.


Google Trends - A very powerful tool that is often overlooked by online marketers, Google Trends can help you touch on topics that are popular, right now. Google Trends can be used for discovering and comparing trending keywords (i.e. keywords with higher volumes of search) within a given period and geography.
Google Trends doesn’t always provide data that you can use to your advantage.  But, from an SEO perspective, it’s well worth using on a regular basis in search engine keyword research. You never know when it’ll help you unearth that one topic that pushes a load of traffic to your website.


Google My Business - Google My Business (GMB) is a free tool created by Google to help business owners manage how they appear in Google search results and on Google Maps. With it you can claim your free local business listing on Google and add things like your contact information, business hours, photos, services, and much more. Local SEO is big business. If you’re a local company looking to drive business online, you need to implement a sound strategy, built around search engine optimization.
For most, this starts with Google My Business. With a business listing, you’re in a position to provide prospective customers with more information on your company.


Google PageSpeed Insights -   PageSpeed Insights helps to analyze the content of a web page, quickly and easily test the speed of a web page, then generates suggestions to make that page faster.
In other words, you want your website to be as fast as possible. How fast the content on your website loads will have an impact on your rankings and user interactions with your site. This is why you need to ensure that your website is moving as quickly as possible, at all times for optimal search results.
Thanks to the Google PageSpeed Insights tool, you never have to guess whether or not your site is up-to-par, in regards to speed. Instead, it helps you to make your website fast on all devices.

Get a good website – in order to have a functional website, you will need a domain name(www.example.com) and a good web hosting provider, I’ll recommend . A good web host and a good hosting plan will help your website load faster.

Build and use an e-mail list – rather than just having customers visit your website and leave, have them drop their email or subscribe to your mailing list. This will allow you to communicate with them later in future.

Use SEO to get organic traffic – SEO (search engine optimization) is the process of you making your website more search engine friendly. When you optimize your website, target relevant keywords and provide relevant information for that keyword; search engines will rate your website with a higher rank and direct traffic to you because it considers your website relevant to that keyword.

Plan a content marketing strategy – You will need a blog to put out useful and relevant content to attract and build an audience. Your blog also helps with your SEO. Plan your content marketing strategy by finding keywords that are relevant to your line of business/industry. After you have planned your topics, start creating content around these topics and publish them online frequently and consistently.

Use Google Analytics – Google analytics helps to monitor and analyze traffic on your website. The data provided by Google is very insightful and can be used to make informed and data driven decisions. Rather than guessing which of your marketing tactics are working and which ones aren’t, you can simply install Google analytics and it will show you the sources you are getting traffic from.

Leverage social media to drive traffic – social media is now a big deal, with so many users’ social media presents great opportunities for business to reach their end customers and engage with them. Start with creating a social media account/group/page for your business on social networks relevant to your industry. Share useful and interactive content, you can use social networks to build your mail list. Also make it easy for users to share your content on social media by using share buttons.

Participate in online communities – Online communities are forums and boards where people come to post questions, socialize, find content and explore. They are a usually free, what you need to do is invest time in building authority and becoming a thought leader in certain discussions. Make sure you find communities relevant to your business. Examples of existing online communities are Reddit, Quora, TripAdvisor, StackOverflow, StackExchange.

Affiliate Marketing – this is a referral arrangement in which an online retailer(advertiser) pays commission to a referrer when users purchase a product using their referral link. This can be useful for e-commerce websites. You will need an affiliate management system to tract affiliate activity and payout affiliate partners.

PPC Advertising – PPC (pay per click) is marketing that lets you set your price for the total number of vies and click you will get to your website. Use Google AdWords and Facebook Ads to run PPC campaigns on a small budget. You can set your price as low as $1/day. You can set your target, keywords, audience and more.

Use “FOMO”. Wait, what’s “FOMO”? – marketing is psychology and psychology is marketing. FOMO is (Fear of Missing Out) and you can use this to boost sales. How many times have you rushed to buy something online just because you saw that only 1 was left or that the discount timer was about to run out? These companies are applying psychology in their marketing to get you to buy. You too can make use of this tactic and create anxiety about missing out on an exciting and trendy product or service you are selling. Build anxiety by adding scarcity to your offer. Use FOMO to boost sales and conversions.

There is an issue being debated among aspiring web designers and developers pertaining to how to go about building a website, people wonder if they should build it with a CMS platform like WordPress, Joomla, Open Cart, or if learning to program and coding from scratch to finish is a better alternative. Both methods are viable and work well depending on what you want to build. But like everything else, there are pros and cons.
So let’s look further into these two methods
Hand Coding: This is more of a traditional way to build web applications. It requires you to code your application from start to finish. Hand coding requires that you have expert knowledge of the programming language you choose to use, whether it is HTML, CSS, PHP or JavaScript. You need to know the ins and outs of front-end to back-end development. Vast knowledge of programming is required to create the exact website of your choice. Note that when you are coding from scratch to finish, you’ll make errors that will affect your website and you may need to spend long debugging hours fix all the errors.
Hand coding a website takes longer hours to finish since you’ll be writing code from scratch, testing and debugging.
There are no restrictions with hand coding, you can do whatever you like, you can add new features now or in the future and customize the features to your preference. You can significantly improve the speed of your website when you hand code because you make use of shortcuts and you can remove unnecessary scripts and file that may be slowing your website down.
CMS: stands for Content Management System, a CMS is a tool used for building a website from a basic structure like a templates or themes. Using a CMS doesn’t require much technical expertise or prior programming language. Most CMS are user friendly and convenient, most of the customization done is carried out via drag and drop.
It takes lesser time to build a website with a CMS because you have access to millions of paid and free ready-made templates, so you spend less time building and debugging.
One of the pros of using a CMS is that it encourages effortless teamwork on the website. You can have multiple people working on your website, editing, posting, updating and so on depending on the roles and privileges you assign to each person.
One persistent con of using a CMS is the security risk present because hackers always try to hack these popular CMS platforms, 3rd party apps and plugins, then directly or indirectly attack websites making use of them. It’s not easy to locate these loopholes but thankfully the developers of these CMS platforms, 3rd party apps and plugins recognize the security threats and provides fixes in updated versions of their software and so I advise you update your CMS 3rd party apps and plugins frequently.
So we have talked about CMS and hand coding and now you understand both methods, you can make better and informed decisions on which approach to take. Let me know the approach you decide to take in the comment section.
