WordPress.com provides fully managed WordPress services that allow you to focus on website building without worrying about technical details such as servers. It offers free and paid options, among which business plans are particularly worthy of attention. Many people may not fully understand the unlocking capabilities, let's dive into it.
Get SFTP access directly
You can access your website directly via SFTP using tools such as Transmit.
This means you can do local WordPress development as usual and then use real deployment tools to deploy your work to production environments (i.e. your WordPress.com website). This is how I use Buddy. (This is a screen recording of the demo workflow.)
Get real control
You can upload and use any plugins and themes you want. You can also directly access the MySQL database.
You can even manage the PHP version used by the website. While this is not a daily operation, it reflects the high access provided by the program.
Significantly improve storage space
200 GB of storage space. Unless you upload a lot of videos, you probably never get close to this limit, and now you have enough storage to upload videos.
Really practical backup function
You don't need to worry about any unexpected events on WordPress.com, such as the server being hacked and losing all data. WordPress.com handles your backups themselves. But the business plan displays backup logs in your dashboard:
This contains a backup of your topic, data, resources... You can download it anytime.
The most critical function? You can restore the website to any point in time with one click.
Global CDN acceleration
Not all WordPress.com sites have been upgraded to global CDN. But if you use a business plan, your website will get this accelerated service. This means faster, and speed is crucial for aspects such as SEO. Speaking of SEO tools, business plans unlock these tools for you as well.
Unlock more advanced themes
You can buy the theme separately, but if you use a business plan, you don't need to do that as it allows you to try more themes. For example, the Aquene theme has a stylish and high-end design:
Price is only $300 per year
(Or $33 per month billed monthly.)
This is not a super low-cost hosting service, but considering all the features we cover here and the cost you need to build them yourself, this price is a great deal. We didn’t even talk about the support services included in the program.
Hosting, backup, monitoring, performance, security, plugins, themes and support – plus a year of free domain registration, you can get such a powerful website service for $300.
They also offer cheaper options. But business plans are the level of real control, speed and secure startup.
Coupon code CSSTRICKS allows you to enjoy 15% off on a $300 business plan per year. Valid until the end of February 2021.

Well, it turns out that SVG's built-in animation features were never deprecated as planned. Sure, CSS and JavaScript are more than capable of carrying the load, but it's good to know that SMIL is not dead in the water as previously

Yay, let's jump for text-wrap: pretty landing in Safari Technology Preview! But beware that it's different from how it works in Chromium browsers.

This CSS-Tricks update highlights significant progress in the Almanac, recent podcast appearances, a new CSS counters guide, and the addition of several new authors contributing valuable content.

Most of the time, people showcase Tailwind's @apply feature with one of Tailwind's single-property utilities (which changes a single CSS declaration). When showcased this way, @apply doesn't sound promising at all. So obvio
