Beyond the Basics: Why Your Site Still Looks... Template-Driven

You have the platform, but you're missing the formula. A truly modern website is a blend of clean design, seamless performance, and strategic SEO. This guide closes the knowledge gap between a standard 7.1 site and a custom-level experience by addressing the areas that matter most:

• Design Stagnation: Are you leveraging the Fluid Engine's "pixel-perfect" precision for complex, magazine-style layouts?
• Performance Drag: Are your images under 250 KB and compressed for optimal speed, a critical ranking factor?
• Future-Proofing: Is your content structured for AI Optimization (AIO) to perform in AI-driven search results?
