Why WordPress?

WordPress is an open source blog publishing application powered by PHP and MySQL which can also be used for basic content management. It has many features including a user-friendly workflow, a rich plugin architecture, and an advanced templating system.

Many people often think of a blog when they hear the term WordPress. It is correct that WordPress started out as a blog platform, but it has long evolved into a fully capable CMS platform. It’s no longer limited to a specific use, it is now one of the best ways to manage your website content. The greatest thing about WordPress is its ease of use. You don’t have to be an experienced computer expert to understand how to use WordPress, changing the content or look of your website is possible with just a few clicks.

There is no need to learn HTML, PHP, Javascript or buy expensive web editing software like Adobe Dreamweaver CS4
($377.99) or Microsoft Expression Web ($137.99) and spend a long time learning how to use them. If you can use a word editor, you can use WordPress!

We’ll coach you through the entire process of installing and configuring WordPress to power your website. We’ll also help you finding great looking themes to use for your WordPress content management system. There are literally hundreds of themes available, if for some reason you can’t find a theme you like, we can customize one to fit your needs. That way you can get the design you are looking for.

WordPress Plugins help add additional functions to your website that do not come pre-packaged with WordPress. If you ever have the need for something WordPress can’t do, we’ll be able to find a plugin that can do what your website needs.
