Important Announcements of the Week:
âžž REMINDER: FORMATTING CHANGES TO HOME & LANDING PAGE SEO TITLES:
As a reminder, we have reformatted the structure of SEO titles to no longer include phone numbers but to use the company name instead. While we have adjusted the content creator to account for these changes, we still need you to be diligent and check your collections for any instances where the phone number shows up instead of the company name. For example:
Carpet Cleaning | Raleigh, NC | 919-555-5555 ➔➔➔ Carpet Cleaning | Raleigh, NC | Cyzewski Carpet Cleaning, LLC
âžž RECAP—APRIL 25TH DESIGN WORKSHOP WITH SOPHIE:
Today, Sophie hosted the first-ever design workshop, where she went over design standards and answered any questions from those who attended. Thank you to all who joined! If you’re interested in attending another workshop in the future—or if you have topics you’d like to see covered—please reach out to Sophie or any of the other Dev Team Leads. We appreciate your valuable input!

Microanimations can be a crucial design element that elevates your replicate and enhances its accuracy for the client. Sometimes, these elements are overlooked when putting the final touches on a replicate. In this video, I walk you through how to recreate a microanimation from a legacy website in Duda and show how including it on the site takes this particular replicate to the next level.
*** Shoutout to Tam for the work you did on this replicate site! (Scenario creted on this website as an example for this week's tip.) ***
