Website Hosting
A good website host can make or break your website in terms of meeting the Google Core Web Vitals. I use Cloudways and can highly recommend them in terms of speed, ease of use and pricing.
Themes
Choosing a theme can be fun or it can be super stressful. There are a ton of free themes out there, and I tried a few before I got serious and went with the Feast Design Plugin which is geared towards Recipe or Food Blogs.
This plugin gives you step-by-step instructions with regards to building a blog, and helps with your SEO, website speed, and gives you a beautiful blog.
