WordPress rebuild: courses, blog, and enroll funnel
The Challenge:
- A bloated theme and many plugins made pages slow; mobile experience hurt engagement and time on page.
- Course and blog URLs were inconsistent, blocking clean internal linking and crawl budget efficiency.
- The team could not publish at scale; editors needed reusable blocks and SEO guardrails.
Our Approach:
- Rebuilt the theme with block patterns, minimal plugins, and caching that matched hosting constraints.
- Standardized program and location pages with clear H1s, internal links, and Course / Organization schema.
- Migrated content with 301s, disavow review not needed, and a Search Console re-crawl plan.
The Challenge:
Content & tech audit:URL inventory, redirect map, and plugin rationalization.
Block-based design:Accessible components for hero, FAQ, curriculum, and CTA blocks.
WordPress build:Custom child theme, performance hardening, and role-based editing.
Validation:Rich result testing, speed audits, and editor training.
Key Features Delivered:
- Structured data for courses, events, and breadcrumbs; FAQ schema on high-intent program pages.
- Programmatic near-me and topic clusters with a consistent template and metadescription logic.
- Image CDN pipeline and critical CSS to improve FCP and LCP on long-form content.
- Forms integrated with the CRM; thank-you and confirmation events for lead attribution.
