Step 1 - The Foundation

Our Web Development team specializes in WordPress development. WordPress is a free web software created by hundreds of community volunteers. Over 60 million people have chosen WordPress to power their website. There are thousands of plugins and themes available to transform a WordPress site into almost anything you can imagine. It is used by companies like:

Ebay
Ford
Sony
The Wallstreet Journal
The New York Times
CNN
and many, many others

Here are 5 reasons why WordPress is better:

1. User Friendly

Editing content in WordPress is very similar Microsoft Word, making it easy for non-techy people to update their website. At the same time WordPress offers unlimited control for web developers who often prefer to work with html and ftp clients.

2. Free, and high quality

Wordpress is a crowd sourced project with hundreds of people working around the clock to make it better. WordPress is free, updates (which are free) are frequently released and easy to install (1-click). Considering the rate web coding evolves, it is very nice to have a website that is easily updated. Did I mention WordPress is free?

3. Third Party Developers

Wordpress has an active community of third party plugin developers. These plugins enhance the functionality of WordPress, and most of them are free.

4. Easily Updated

The look and feel of a WordPress website is called a "theme," and is very easy to change. You can install more than one theme and easily switch between them (though changing themes may require some settings to be adjusted). There are hundreds, if not thousands of high-quality themes available for less than $50. This means you can have an amazing website up and running in less than an hour - for under $100. The majority of work is populating the site with content.

5. Proven

Wordpress has been around since 2003, and is extremely popular. It is used by roughly 17% of Alexa Internet's "top 1 million" websites, and as of August 2011, manages 22% of all new websites, making WordPress the most popular content management system on the internet today.

Step 2 - The Design

Instead of starting a site from scratch, we start with a fully functional website theme, saving you from having to spend time and money developing a basic website. We then work with you to customize the theme, giving it a unique look and feel that is consistent with your company's branding. New website projects begin with a discovery session to collect project goals & requirements. This information is convert into a detailed project schedule. Taking this important step ensures that everyone is on the same page, and eliminates future headaches for both you and our web developers.

Each site we build includes:

Visitor Statistics through Google Analytics
