Developing Websites Using WordPress

November 19, 2015 By bytesized

WordPress HTML CSS

Some of you know I have been taking my business into a new direction and as a result I have gotten deep into web development.

The type of web development I choose was ‘wordpress’. It’s a natural fit for small business clients, mom and pop operations, and the small groups I have always supported.

‘WordPress’ makes having a web presence simple . It’s easy to get a professional and custom look without extensive programming. The choice of appearance and features is extensive.

Once the site is up and running Google and Bing will find it easily since WordPress is optimized for search.

WordPress allows me to assign roles to editors and contributors without exposing the site to mishaps in administration, which I control from anywhere I work.

If you, or anyone you know, is looking to redesign your current website, or perhaps have no web presence yet, reach out to my at www.bytesized.com.
