    This guide on URL redirects explains more. For more specific advice, please share details of the URLs.

    I have a list of 25 posts that I need to redirect. I'm technologically dim when it comes to this stuff. The article didnt help much but confused me a lot more lol

  2. I was a Squarespace subscriber for years. I went to Kajabi after considering course creation. I found that I can do it far cheaper and with a better GUI.
    After being with Kajabi I can say that while it is a good all-in-one platform, the tools it provides for website editing suck. I hate it and now I am coming back.
    That said, I have an old site on SS that I am going to polish and add my courses and blog posts to.
    I have a concern that I think might be fixed if I just save my blog posts and upload them to Squarespace. But I dont want to worry about people getting a 404 for a bad pointer for that post.
    Is there a way if someone clicks on my post that I made in Kajabi to be sent to the post without a 404 if I stop being a Kajabi subscriber? I think a 301 redirect might be the way, but I am not sure how to do this and not sure if this is even needed.
    Help a brother out here please?

  3. Derrick I got the first one to work and I love it. Not sure why I couldnt get the second one to work in the advanced code injection. It just showed up as the code text, nothing else.
    This is great by the way and you have a very nice website.

    There is. This code uses a codeblock in a page or blog header to make it snow on all pages or you can put it on one page or post in the body using a code block. I use this on my 7.0 site. 

    <div class="snow" />
    <style>
    .editor-stage .snow {
      height:50px;
      background: #fff;
    }
    .snow{
      position:fixed;
      pointer-events:none;
      top:0;
      left:0;
      right:0;
      bottom:0;
      height:100vh;
      background: none;
      background-image: url('https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/static-ressources/s1.png'), url('https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/static-ressources/s2.png'), url('https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/static-ressources/s3.png');
      z-index:100;
      -webkit-animation: snow 10s linear infinite;
      -moz-animation: snow 10s linear infinite;
      -ms-animation: snow 10s linear infinite;
      animation: snow 10s linear infinite;
    }
    @keyframes snow {
      0% {background-position: 0px 0px, 0px 0px, 0px 0px;}
      50% {background-position: 500px 500px, 100px 200px, -100px 150px;}
      100% {background-position: 500px 1000px, 200px 400px, -100px 300px;}
    }
    @-moz-keyframes snow {
      0% {background-position: 0px 0px, 0px 0px, 0px 0px;}
      50% {background-position: 500px 500px, 100px 200px, -100px 150px;}
      100% {background-position: 400px 1000px, 200px 400px, 100px 300px;}
    }
    @-webkit-keyframes snow {
      0% {background-position: 0px 0px, 0px 0px, 0px 0px;}
      50% {background-position: 500px 500px, 100px 200px, -100px 150px;}
      100% {background-position: 500px 1000px, 200px 400px, -100px 300px;}
    }
    @-ms-keyframes snow {
      0% {background-position: 0px 0px, 0px 0px, 0px 0px;}
      50% {background-position: 500px 500px, 100px 200px, -100px 150px;}
      100% {background-position: 500px 1000px, 200px 400px, -100px 300px;}
    }
    </style>
    <p>

    and this is a different snow effect that goes into advanced code injection header:

     

    bkit-animation-delay:1s,1s;animation-delay:1s,1s}.snowflake:nth-of-type(2){left:20%;-webkit-animation-delay:6s,.5s;animation-delay:6s,.5s}.snowflake:nth-of-type(3){left:30%;-webkit-animation-delay:4s,2s;animation-delay:4s,2s}.snowflake:nth-of-type(4){left:40%;-webkit-animation-delay:2s,2s;animation-delay:2s,2s}.snowflake:nth-of-type(5){left:50%;-webkit-animation-delay:8s,3s;animation-delay:8s,3s}.snowflake:nth-of-type(6){left:60%;-webkit-animation-delay:6s,2s;animation-delay:6s,2s}.snowflake:nth-of-type(7){left:70%;-webkit-animation-delay:2.5s,1s;animation-delay:2.5s,1s}.snowflake:nth-of-type(8){left:80%;-webkit-animation-delay:1s,0s;animation-delay:1s,0s}.snowflake:nth-of-type(9){left:90%;-webkit-animation-delay:3s,1.5s;animation-delay:3s,1.5s}.snowflake:nth-of-type(10){left:25%;-webkit-animation-delay:2s,0s;animation-delay:2s,0s}.snowflake:nth-of-type(11){left:65%;-webkit-animation-delay:4s,2.5s;animation-delay:4s,2.5s}
    </style>
    <div class="snowflakes" aria-hidden="true">
      <div class="snowflake">
      ❅
      </div>
      <div class="snowflake">
      ❆
      </div>
      <div class="snowflake">

      </div>
      <div class="snowflake">
      ❆
      </div>
      <div class="snowflake">
      ❅
      </div>
      <div class="snowflake">
      ❆
      </div>
      <div class="snowflake">
        ❅
      </div>
      <div class="snowflake">

      <div class="snowflake">

      <div class="snowflake">
        ❅
      </div>
      <div class="snowflake">
        ❆
      </div>
    </div>

    I have both effects on my site now, so take a look if you wish.

    Nice website! I like the typography, it fits well with the purpose. Also, spacing and layout looks great😊

    This is what I would improve:

    1. As someone else said, some of the images are very low resolution. I use Let's Enhance to increase resolution, you can try it here: https://letsenhance.io

    Your idea for increasing resolution was really good. I re-ehanced a bunch of photos from a long time ago. They look great.

    2. "DID YOU SEARCH “PERSONAL TRAINERS NEAR ME”?" This text is a bit weird so I would change it to something else. Or do most of your visitors come from this search term?

    Trainers near me is a term that is used frequently. Is it too in your face for SEO? I have been thinking about that. I am in the middle of getting a video done (documentary/commercial) and I will probably be changing the front page anyway. I’ll probably leave the SEO in the “back office” of the page. It has been pretty successful. 
    I will delete those low resolution pictures soon and replace them with newly updated higher resolution photos. Some I will keep and use that link you mentioned. 
    Thanks for the helpful input. I appreciate it.

    The initial screen with the logo looks great to me. I like the way it has the logo big and the menu at the top, personally.

    Scrolling down though...

    I do like the black and yellow.

    I think there is too much on the front page. I would move Staff, Testimonials, Values, Services, etc to other pages given the design choice of the big logo with clear menu at the top of the page. 

    I personally would keep the big logo, and reduce the first page to about 1/4 (or maybe 1/6) of its current length.

    You have a mix of really nice photos and really low quality photos

    Good use of "call to action" buttons

    The styling on the main page feels kind of random, how each section has a different style. Its as though you were experimenting with different layouts to see what you like.

    For me, #1 thing  to improve is the very large, low quality photos. But I'm a photographer so I notice that sort of thing!

    I'm playing with moving the testomonials to another page, and services. 

    The styling colors are my gym colors, charcoal black, gold, and white. Not much I can do about that, as I've been using those colors for years.

    When you say layouts, what would you suggest the layout should be?

    Hi. I think you really have to invest in good photography. Another thing is you have a lot of empty space between the text, a lot of scrolling. And too much difference between the font sizes. 

    I think you have to replace the big logo on the front page to a simple and straight message to your customers with a good picture in the background. The message could be what you can offer to them to improve their lives. Forget about the logo does not add anything. 

     

    Regards

    Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately, I cant do much about the lower quality photos. There's some photos in it from over 15 years ago. I will be replacing some of the older ones with iPhone 11 Pro photos in the months to come. For now, this is the best I can do. 

    I'm on the fence with the logo. I am going to consider your thoughts. 

    As for the scrolling, I fixed it by adding a back to the top button. 

    Thank you again.
