WDD LIVE 076: Website Rescue! The Race to Rebuild "Artisan Scapes"

**Agenda**
A family friend recently reached out about their company's website that was built and subsequently abandoned by the freelancer/agency who was supposed to be managing it. It's not built on WordPress and the forms are down and all leads have stopped. Can we use ACSS and Frames to do a rapid website rescue and get them back up and running? Tune in to find out!

You're so right about factoring all the photo stuff into pricing. When you went through the photos at 1:25:00, I flashed back to the landscaping website I did last year. Dude sent me 100s of photos. Photo triage, culling, conversion, compression, naming takes such a crap ton of time.

No matter one's experience level, some people pay hundreds or even thousands of dollars for this kind of information...Kevin, you are a Godsend for sharing this. Thank you!

[@piotrmichalski1460]

Faaaaantastic! Thank you Kevin, I kinda see myself in there the way you're working - I'm just an amateur, but this gives me a huge boost of confidence and helps me combat my imposter syndrome, when I see we're more alike at work than I could think. This is gold! Easy to see you're in your element, so more content like this would be greatly appreciated. 👍

[@rebelinc]

nice to follow your workflow and solving different issues that always occur.

[@GrantHawkey]

Thanks heaps for more great little gems. So valuable watching other pros build out sites to pick up new methods, or fill gaps in knowledge. Also, the browser and Bricks lag is likely just struggling to keep up with your speed and flow 😅 I find that I need to take a beat to slow down and be more deliberate with my clicks and keystrokes to have less builder dropouts. Thanks again man 🙌

[@bluetheredpanda]

Said it already, but I just have to say it again… That was beastly. Great session, great job 👏👏👏

[@madebywahab]

Loved it! Learned alot

[@winwinis3483]

Excellent thank you - Look forward to the rest

[@kevinrittershaus9380]

These are so helpful. Thank you!

How would I set up relationships on the Service Page? For example, related reviews would show reviews specifically connected to the current service page. Also, could you provide a follow-up on designing the service page template that you created in this video?

[@mcostales84]

the issue with the builder closing and opening the front-end, it's because you used the same tab to edit the page and preview it at some point, just open a new tab for preview and keep the one with the builder open. Stupid, I know, but it's the only solution

[@mr.matt.eastwood]

Not sure about Mac, but on Windows (or Linux in my case) Ctrl+Click or middle mouse click opens in a new tab anyway. Convenient.

3 Hours?!?! 🤯🤯🤯

Hi Kevin, as I continue on your video another thing I've noticed is you made the "Geogia Landscaping Company" as H1 instead of the one you grab from their old site. Can I get your thoughts on it, just curious. How does it give better on SEO?

[@bobweb]

Yeah I like these kind of videos :-) Interesting to see how you build a site like this.

[@vaughanprint]

Choosing the icon weight was like the worst eye test ever.

[@stripedgoat]

Thank you Kevin!

[@filmgenius2]

Are service taxonomies needed for other post types if we already have a custom post type for services?

[@Gearyco]

Not for services but for other things

[@vaughanprint]

3 Hours?!?! 🤯🤯🤯 (I copied Matt's comment) 2 hours in… one more to go tonight.

[@buppin]

What SEO plugin are you using, Kevin?
