Wordpress hosted wherever you want is pretty nice. Just sayin’

We're simplifying our plans, and updating pricing to match what modern marketing teams need. The web is changing faster than ever, and AI is making it easier to build, manage, and grow content-rich sites. We've heard from customers that they need better ways to scale, so today we're announcing updates that do three things: - Simpler plans and updated pricing. We’re introducing a new Premium Site plan by combining the CMS and Business plans. As part of this, pricing and limits are updating across all paid Site plans. - A plan for fast-growing teams. Introducing the Team plan, an all-in-one offering for teams that have outgrown self-serve but aren't ready for Enterprise. It unlocks capabilities previously unavailable on self-serve, like AEO agents, page branching, single-page publishing, publishing workflows, and so much more. - AI as the foundation. We’re introducing AI credits and including them in every Workspace plan, so all customers have built-in access to the latest AI features they need. To learn more about these updates, visit our blog: wfl.io/48Stauj

Today at @yoast we’re shipping something I've actually wanted to see on the web for some time (even before working at Yoast) and am now honored to be part of the team to bring this to the masses... Built in collaboration with the Open Source and NLWeb team at @Microsoft lead by @rv_guha (co-creator of schema.org, RSS, RDF and other web standards) - we're introducing the Schema Aggregation feature: a "schemamap" endpoint that outputs your site's entire structured data map in one place. ​ Under the hood, we now provide a standardised, deduplicated map of your entities via a single endpoint. An agent no longer needs to crawl all individual pages to understand its meaning but can now ingest an entire entity map with ease. ​ A few details to note about the endpoint: - It's is cacheable with sub‑100ms responses - It respects existing privacy and indexing settings - It aggregates all indexable content without navigation noise - It merges duplicate entities so your "Author X" or "Article Y" exist as a single node instead of being re‑discovered on every URL. - If you're using one of our paid plugins that extends schema even more (such as Yoast WooCommerce SEO adds product schema) this will be populated within the endpoint too - If you already extend Yoast’s Schema API, or use partners like events or recipe plugins, their entities are pulled into the same map automatically. ​ For me, this is one of the first major ways the agentic web can ingest a site at scale, and with much more efficiency and context. It has also been so much fun to work with this alongside the team at Yoast, particularly the genius mind of @schlessera. Lastly, we have also launched a schema visualisation tool to view how everything is output. You can enable this feature today with the free version of Yoast SEO.

I think this might be the first time we have Open Source at the majority of the top 5,000 sites, which is a big win.

A lot of people don’t know what I actually do at @Bluehost. Short answer: my teams help people skip the DIY stress and get pro-built, pro-optimized sites. Longer answer: we just launched a full-service product and I’m pretty pumped about it. 😎 bluehost.com/full-service-se…

“AI alone is not a strategy.” Smart SEOs know: automation ≠ system. Build the engine first, then scale it with AI. 🧠 Strategy > shortcuts 📅 Nov 13: SEO in Transition Let’s talk systems, AI, and what’s actually next → brnw.ch/21wXmFv

The #WordPress community has lost one of its own. Harry Jackson (InMotion Hosting) passed away unexpectedly last weekend. GoFundMe for his family in 🧵 I was fortunate to spend time with Harry at multiple #WordCamp events through the years and from the very first time we met...

A new chapter for me has officially begun 🎉 I'm thrilled to join the folks over at @Bluehost to help build and grow the WordPress agency experience! (If you own/work at an agency, let's talk!) Thank you to everyone at GoDaddy/SkyVerge for 4.5 amazing years of working together to support the #WordPress community. 🫶 I’m so grateful for the encouragement from folks like @wpmodder, @courtneyr_dev, and @MajaDidIt – you all made it an incredible journey!

There is a danger that we use research, data and testing to relieve ourselves from the responsibility of making decisions. However we should never blindly follow the numbers. Sometimes we need to try things despite the evidence because that it not the whole picture.
