🚨 Thinking about cutting your marketing budget during a recession? Think again.

When times get tough, most businesses go quiet. That’s your cue to get loud—strategically.

📈 Now is the BEST time to double down on:

🔍 SEO (rank while your competitors sleep)

🧠 Organic content (build long-term trust)

📲 Social media (stay top-of-mind while others disappear)

Recessions don’t kill demand—they shift it. People still buy. But they choose brands that SHOW UP.

The content you post today pays off tomorrow, next month, even next year. Want to lead the pack when the economy rebounds? Start building now.

🚨 MAJOR SEO UPDATE JUST WENT LIVE 🚨

We've rolled out a MASSIVE SEO upgrade that supercharges the way your reviews, projects, and FAQs help you rank—and drive more business.

🔍 What changed?

Old System:
✅ Content was good for SEO, but not laser-focused
✅ Reviews, Projects, and FAQs mentioned relevant services + cities
✅ Links pointed everywhere = diluted SEO juice

New System (Live Now):
🚀 We’ve matched your existing WordPress pages and Google Search Console keywords to your reviews, projects, and FAQs
🔗 Each piece of content now targets ONE main keyword
📈 Every article links to the most relevant page on your site
💬 Example: A review that mentions “Paver Sealing”?
Old Title: New 5-Star Review from Jane D
New Title: Paver Sealing Review from Jane D, optimized and linking ONLY to your Paver Sealing page

🧠 We’ve already done keyword research for all our clients and activated the update.
Want to rank for specific services? Send us the keywords—you’re in control.

This is a game-changer for rankings.
This is how we get you more leads.
This is YacDaddy. 💪

Having trouble with your WordPress site not sending emails? You're not alone! Fortunately, I’ve got the scoop on how to use Gmail's SMTP server to fix those issues and make sure your emails don't land in the spam wilds.

First things first, you'll need to install the WP Mail SMTP plugin—easy-peasy! This plugin lets your WordPress site send emails through Gmail, which is way more reliable than that old PHP mail function that mostly roams free in the digital wilderness.

Just remember to set up a Google Cloud Project to get your OAuth credentials, which sounds complicated but is only a bit of clicking here and there.

You’ll be up and running quicker than a yak in a stampede.

Once you’ve connected everything, you can send test emails to confirm that your WordPress site is now delivering messages like a top-notch postal service.

Remember, using YacDaddy’s marketing software can also help elevate your home service business without the email headaches.

Let’s ensure your emails get read, not ignored!

Okta and 8x8 just teamed up for a security upgrade, integrating SMS APIs into user authentication.

It’s a masterstroke that ensures users don’t just throw their passwords around like confetti at a party.

With multi-factor authentication via SMS, you get an extra layer of security that’s as simple as receiving a text.

This process minimizes unauthorized access, even if someone tries to pull a fast one with your credentials.

The integration uses Okta’s nifty Inline Hook to communicate with the 8x8 SMS API, which whisks the authentication codes right to your phone.

Fancy, right?

What’s great about this is that it’s scalable for businesses of all sizes.

So whether you’re a small service team or a massive enterprise, you can strut confidently knowing you’ve beefed up your security game.

With Messenger chatbots, businesses can respond instantly to customer queries, meaning happier folks and less stress for staff.

As Oby the Yak, I know communication is key—just ask any herd of yaks! I just read about three fantastic team communication apps that can keep your small business on track while we’re all roaming the digital plains.

First up, we've got Slack, the favorite of many businesses for its user-friendly interface and customization options.

It's like having a personalized yak pen for your team chats!

Then, there's HipChat—well, kind of.

It was great while it lasted before merging into the mighty Slack.

But hey, even yaks have to adapt!

Don’t forget about Skype for Business, which has transitioned to Microsoft Teams, offering robust features for all your communication needs.

It's like upgrading to a premium yak feed—very worth it!

Integration with your other systems is vital—because hopping between apps is as annoying as a fly buzzing around my ears.

So, here’s the scoop on using the Yoast SEO plugin for beginners! It's like getting a treasure map for your WordPress site, making it easier to shine in Google’s spotlight.

After you install it, dive into the "SEO" section of your dashboard to adjust settings to your liking.

You can even declutter your dashboard if you're not a fan of too many prompts and notifications.

In the "Search Appearance" settings, you can control how your site looks to search engines—pretty snazzy, right? Customize how your posts and pages display and make sure your branding is spot on with a solid logo.

Don’t forget keyword optimization when creating posts; sprinkle them like confetti throughout your content.

Images can help too, but they need some SEO love to truly pop in search results.

And as a yak who knows about standing out, editing meta descriptions with engaging summaries is key! If you want to tame SEO like a pro, remember to keep rustling up knowledge along the way.

At YacDaddy, we get that navigating the world of marketing can feel overwhelming—only we offer the tools and guidance your home service business needs to dominate the digital landscape.

Let’s get your business ranking higher!
