WordPress Installations

So you’ve done the homework, WordPress is fantastic, but not sure you can tackle the installation?
You’ve realised the standard themes leave little to be desired and want a custom designed Theme, so your website wont look anything like a WordPress site?
You need extra functionality built in to the standard WordPress installation, maybe add a gallery, image slider or custom built navigation?

That’s what Redback Graphics does.

Beware “Scammers”

If you have registered a domain name through Redback Graphics, do not pay invoices to any other company for domain renewals. Same applies for web hosting.

Scammers prey on the fact that some domain owners are not aware of the “tricks” some companies will use to get your money. A common “scam” is to send a domain owner an invoice for the purchase of a domain that is VERY SIMILAR to your existing domain. You do not need to purchase that domain. Renewals for your domain and webhosting will only come from Redback Graphics, anything else can be deemed questionable, so please run it past someone in the know before paying these invoices.

Domain renewals from Redback Graphics are $29.95 for 2 years registration.

“Scammers” can and do charge up to $280 for 1yr registration of a domain you didnt need or want (and that I could sell you for $29.95 for 2yrs registration).

SEO content and images

SEO content and images

Adding descriptive Titles to your images, and/or specific strings of text within your content, will greatly increase your SEO (Search Engine Optimisation). If you name your images with an exact string that you might expect someone to “Google”, your image (and your website) will then rank higher in any Google results. Making the Title specific, but also unique will give excellent results. For example, if you were to name an image “twitter free zone”, then anyone Googling twitter free zone would quickly find your website. Your challenge is to predict what people will be Googling (exact string), then include an image you can name accordingly. The more correctly named images you have, the higher the Google ranking for those strings will be. Do NOT try and trick Google by adding excessive images with blatant SEO Titles, Google will recognise that and blacklist your website completely. Just include relevant content, with relevant images with descriptive titles, and Google will love you, and people will find you.

Updating/adding relevant content to your website, through images, documents, videos, text, etc will increase your Google ranking. Google visits and indexes your site periodically, automatically. If nothing has changed when Google comes back, the period until the next visit will increase, each time. That is how your Google ranking drops. To maintain or increase your Google ranking you must keep an active, relevant website.

In the beginning

Welcome to the (original) new website. There have been several rebuilds since this post was made.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
