  • TikTok Ban Threatens Creator Incomes and Social Media Dynamics
    Kate warns that a TikTok ban will significantly impact creators' incomes, especially those with US audiences. "TikTok's superior organic reach attracts creators," she notes, but a ban may shift them to new platforms like Rednote. With 50K followers, Kate is diversifying content platforms to mitigate risks, hoping the ban is overturned.
  • Responsive Websites: A Must-Have for Modern Business Success
    Kate stresses that a responsive website is essential for "user experience, SEO, and conversion rates." She suggests starting fresh with a mobile-first approach and using Bootstrap for design. This ensures your site meets industry standards and adapts seamlessly to various screen sizes.
  • Exploring PayPal Alternatives: Insights for Small Business Owners
    Kate highlights PayPal's fund withdrawal restrictions and suggests exploring alternatives like Stripe, which offers "quick payouts" and "robust dispute support." For e-commerce businesses, Shopify and Woocommerce processors provide seamless integration. Key factors include major card acceptance, refund processing, and automatic receipts. These alternatives ensure smoother cash flow and better business support.

  • The most important question you can ask any content writer before hiring them is what writing experience do they have in your industry. Even the best content writers in the world will struggle if they don’t understand your industry. Without an understanding of your industry, it makes it difficult for them to fact check, understand the tone your audience needs or what direction to take with your content. It’s by far the most important question you should ask when interviewing content writers!

  • I can’t express enough how much you have to caption your videos. This is essential for those without hearing but for those who prefer to scroll through TikTok without the sound on. You’ll significantly reduce your audience size and reach without captions. There has never been a better time to include keywords in your TikTok descriptions. We’re seeing a huge shift with the platform where videos optimized for their search feature seem to perform better.
