People still use Google, but AI-powered search tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and other large language models (LLMs) now play a significant role in how users discover information online. More people are turning to conversational AI for quick, direct answers rather than browsing traditional search results. Because of this shift, your website must be optimized for both Google SEO and AI search visibility.
When AI can read your content clearly, your business becomes easier to discover.
Meeting customers where they search online is essential. Connecting your WooCommerce store to a Google Shopping Feed is one of the most innovative ways to boost your visibility and drive more sales.
To grow your business, you need more than just great products—you need to reach the right audiences and effectively promote what you sell. WooCommerce offers powerful tools to help you expand your reach, connect with customers, and increase sales through multichannel e-commerce.

Believe it or not, I can’t wait to spend the rest of the summer coding with high school students I haven’t yet met! Over the last two weeks, I helped high school juniors and seniors code websites advocating topics they care about passionately. I facilitated a sisterhood of young women lifting each other in praise and graduating from the Girls Who Code Summer Immersion Program (GWC SIP). They gained new skills, newfound friendships, and innovative perspectives on their futures. And over the next 6 weeks, I will see another 60 students, from all over the world, take risks, be brave, and discover how great Computer Science can be.

We all visit websites for similar reasons regardless of the technology we use to interact with it. A person who is visually impaired will use a bank’s website to pay a bill with the same intent as someone who doesn’t use assistive technology. A person using their mobile device requires the same functionality of someone using their desktop. Just as a good site design will have considered the requirements of different screens, good site design needs to consider a variety of users’ needs and accessibility issues. This is called Web Accessibility.
Have you heard about WordPress? You may be considering it for your new website. You may need a website; you know how important it is, you just “don’t have the time”.
