Your Black Friday campaign is coming.
But is your website ready?
Is your messaging clear?
Is your checkout killing conversions?
Stop assuming everything is fine.
I’ll bring a fresh pair of eyes and tell you what you’re missing BEFORE it matters. hirejeffc.me/

Pretty sure #WordPress built-in debug log feature is not writing to the log. I've tried everything across multiple sites and no PHP error will trigger/write to debug.log. Testing in WP 7.1 currently. If you can test please let me know the results, ..it may be server related.
There are lights. There is a high-pitched noise. There are signs. And still, almost 50 collisions with the bridge this year LOL

This is fantastic, but it's also way too real. youtube.com/watch?v=KHBl2kcG…
Today is the last day of the summer farmers market. It’s also the last day to see Leo the cat this year. Unless I see him when picking up bird seed.
Hopefully, there’s some spaghetti squash available.
Can I just live inside a holodeck instance that’s filled with all of the great memories of my past lol?
All of the times I wanted to wring Q's neck, only for him to save Picard's life and admit that Picard was his genuine friend.
Never seen this before, beautiful youtube.com/watch?v=xteKObna…
This man has all my respect and then some.

Black Friday is 28 days 8 hours and some minutes from now and if you run a WooCommerce shop that's going to do numbers, I've got a wager for you:
Imagine...
1.) You give us a copy of your staging environment.
2.) We stand up a bespoke environment for you in our world. We're in 350+ datacenters currently so we have boxes where you need them.
3.) You tell us your peak checkout concurrency from last BFCM (or whenever the high water mark happened)
4.) I show you a completed load test with 3X that number of checkouts and zero errors.
5.) I present you with a number that is lower than what you paid last year AND I'll lock that monthly price for up to two years (practical restrictions apply of course)
Now at this point one of three things happens:
Door number one: We're happy, you're happy, and we make the money printer go brrrrr. Assuming we like you and you don't sell anything illegal where you sell it, this is what will happen. (Gray markets welcome)
Option two is that it's not a great fit for either of us and we simply part as friends. You get a free load test and you learn a bunch of shit that most companies do wrong while charging you five grand for it.
Door number three is: We fail the test and I lose the bet.
In this diabolical branch of multiverse Small Devops Energy Patrick has to give $1000 to the charity of your choosing, and we have to continue to host your site in the upside down for free for the next six months.
These things do cost thousands of dollars to do correctly so I'm only gonna do a handful of these for free. Next week we'll charge five grand and all bets are off.
The only catch is that your Woo site must do at least $100K/month, ideally way more than that, and you have to be hosted with one of the Usual Suspects.
If you're already on GP this isn't for you, you're already winning.
If we only get a handful of takers, then it's first come first serve.
If we get a lot of takers I'm gonna let my middle kid pick the winners based entirely upon whatever floats her boat, so if you sell squishies or over priced hoodies that are way too big or you're Salish Matter, hold on to your hats.
GLHF and may the odds be ever in your favor.
