Creating WordPress & Genesis Websites Since 2010

Services

I build websites using WordPress and the Genesis Framework. If you'd like to know why I use the Genesis Framework, please see my post here.

Site Migration

Do you currently have your site on another platform (Tumblr? Blogger? TypePad?) and want to move your site to WordPress? No problem!
Do you currently have a simple PHP or HTML site that you wish to have migrated to WordPress?
Do you want more control of your content? your site? your design? your layout? Then look no further!

I have migrated all sorts of sites into a self-hosting WordPress site matching pixel for pixel allowing you to let your webmaster go and giving you full control of your site. Please contact me today to begin working together.

Genesis Framework & Theme Setup

Have you just purchased a StudioPress theme or the ProPlus package and have no idea what to do next? Feel free to reach out to me and I will install WordPress, Genesis and your theme on your site for free! Please contact me today to begin working together.

Theme Customizations

Have you just purchased a StudioPress theme or the ProPlus package and want to customize the theme a bit to fit your purposes or your vision? I am constantly asked to make theme modifications and enhancements to all Genesis Child Themes. Please contact me today to begin working together.

Plugin Development & Customizations

Most of the time, the axiom is: "There's a plugin for that!" However, more than most of the time, that plugin doesn't necessarily do everything that I want. So what do you do? Do you install it and try to hack it? What happens if you update it? Here's where I come in! I can customize any plugin (in the WordPress Repository or any GPL/MIT licensed plugin) to do what you'd like to do. Most of the time, this is a simple change in the code here and/or there. Sometimes it involves developing another plugin to work along side the plugin.

Website Design and Development

Most of the time, I develop websites from a PSD, and depending on the PSD and its complexity and the scope of the site development, this process can take anywhere from a day to a month to a few months. Most of the time is spent tweaking the site after the general development is completed. Once you are ready, I will migrate the site to your new server!

WordPress Consulting, Training, & Scoping

A lot of the time, I get clients who don't know what they want, and they simply just want to explore their options. I will help you scope out your project on an hourly basis, which includes content organization and a strategy on custom taxonomies and custom post types(don't worry if you don't know what that means! I'll explain it to you). Once completed, I then can develop the site for you or you can move on to another developer (which I can recommend) to develop your site or you can do it yourself!

If you are new to WordPress and need some help learning WordPress, or even Genesis, you will have access to WP101 Training Videos inside your dashboard to ensure that you know how to do everything you need to do in your new website. I will also provide detailed instructions for managing your specific theme via a Readme and Contextual Help (Help tabs throughout your site that are located at the top right), which can be found inside the WordPress admin area. Furthermore, each contract includes an hour web conference where I will walk your through the admin of your site. I also offer packages where if you need any additional help and/or training, you can contact me, and I will walk you through it.
