Once my eyes were opened to the wonderful platform that is Word Press, I couldn’t resist recommending it to clients, old and new. It provides such a simple way to have both the ease of maintenance of content for people with little or no comfort when it comes to coding a website, and the power for an administrator/designer behind the scenes to tailor the site to look just like a normal, flat site.
This was one of those cases, and I was happy to help. Sheri had already been debating the option of using WordPress but wasn’t getting very sustainable offers for implementation of such a plan. She had a sharply designed site, so that part was done. All I needed to do was install Word Press, templatize the pages to look like her current site and bring in the page content. For a small site, it was fairly simple. Now she can maintain page content easily enough, run a blog and not be chained to some web design agency trying to nickle and dime her to death for updates.
We finished and launched earlier this week, and there is still plenty of room to grow too. I look forward to working with her company and helping out where I can in empowering people to manage their own web content.
