WordPress Customization

In order to achieve a website that is easy to maintain within a budget, we recommend WordPress.

WordPress is a content management system that makes maintaining websites easy for non-technical users through an online interface. WordPress is housed securely, online giving you the ability to update your website from any computer at any location. And if you know how to use Microsoft Word, you can use WordPress.

WordPress is also inherently optimized for the web and content changes generally post to search engines within hours. That means your site is more likely to land on the first page of Google results, so people are more likely to find you.

We have experience with all facets of WordPress including:

WordPress web hosting
Installation and configuration
Graphic design and customization
Search engine optimization
Upgrades, troubleshooting and maintenance

"I have worked with Beth for at least 8 years. After opening our doors in 2006, our new business concept quickly grew. After our third year in business...we decided to start franchising....Beth and Web Strategies could not have come into my life at a better time. I was SO pleased to see how she could quickly grasp our business concept, our challenges and efficiently help us evaluate our current place, and advise us on how we could be so much better within the Social Media network! Beth gave us a better foundation for a more robust plan....We are thrilled to be introducing her to our franchisees as well. At first I was a bit intimated by everything I had to learn, but she made it easy and actually FUN! :) I would highly recommend her for all your Social Media needs."
~Pam Ahart, Bark ‘N Bubbles Dog Wash

"Working with Beth Bates and Web Strategies was the easiest, most convenient, flexible and pleasant experience. I have had several dealings with web designers in the past, and I found most of my experiences with "techies" to be stiff, condescending and rigid.

She was reliable and fun and always had helpful feedback and surprising, clever ideas to accentuate the essence of my business. I love her and I would recommend her and her company to anyone I know."
