Dear vee,
I like your Bootstrap Basic4 theme found on Wordpress.org.
This is the reason, why I would like to ask you some questions about how to start a website-builder service. I am sure, you can give me some excellent advices. Unfortunately, I could not find any email address of yours, so I decided to write here.
Circumstances:
Me and my employer are planning to start a service in Hungary. We - or preferably me - will build simple websites based on Wordpress
for small and medium-sized companies. We want to provide secure and responsive sites, which can get good ranking in Google search results.
What we have now:
- rented storage space from a server hosting company (circa 450 MB free space)
- .hu domains
- php 7.3
- MySQL 5.6
- Wordpress 5.6 (english version)
- FTP-connection
- no cPanel (unfortunately)
Our plan is trying out and using some core features of WP, and installing some plugins and a theme, to gain some experiences, and - of course - to practice.
We have an eye on being compliant with Google, so we would like to choose Bootstrap-based themes - like yours - to ensure that. I mean to make our sites responsive.
We prefer to use the freshest versions, like BT v.4 or 5-based ones.
We think, we will need your theme, a backup automatism, a security-solution and a contact form + captcha on the very beginning to build simple and well-functioning sites.
The content will be written in Hungarian.
I will check these sites with:
Google Mobile-Friendly Test (https://search.google.com/test/mobile-friendly)
Google PageSpeed Insights (https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/)
a smartphone (or more)
different browsers on desktop, like Firefox or Chrome.
I think also on W3C validator, but with CMS the result can never be a clean and valid code, as far as I know. (https://validator.w3.org/).
My questions to you:
What do you think? Is this plan good and reasonable? Or is there any trap that we couldn't realize yet?
Is something missing?
To be honest, I am not an expert programmer, I have just the very basics in my head. This is why I ask a much more experienced person, like you.
Do you provide consultation service?
Could you please send me some live example sites, which use Bootstrap Basic4 theme?
Do you plan to upgrade your Bootstrap Basic4 theme to be Bootstrap5 - based? If yes, then when is it expected?
Does this theme has a pro version? What kind of features can it provide?
What are you working nowadays?
I am waiting for your answer, thank you in advance.
