Web Design
Does web design have you screaming for help? It certainly is a lot easier to envision creating a website than it is to make it happen. So many things can go wrong, and these days no business can afford to lose money on costly web design.
Global Swan offers user-friendly websites for the DIY’er and for businesses who want to manage their own site without costly software. We can build a complete website for you, manage it or we can train you to manage it yourself.
What’s most important to us is that our client’s have an easy-to-use website that they can easily update themselves, blog, and grow with little-to-no professional knowledge of web design. To do this, we specialize in business/portfolio sites & magazine-style sites that are blog ready and are “self-hosted” on the fabulous WordPress platform.
Check out our website portfolio for a better idea of looks we can achieve together.
Why WordPress ROCKS!
There are a ton of reasons why we think WordPress ROCKS! And we are going to try our best to list them for you!
Clears throat – Ah-he-he-hemmm…
WordPress:
- Is user-friendly. The dashboard/admin pages are super easy to learn and to use.
- It is an open source project, which means there are hundreds of people working on it constantly to help evolve and make it continuously awesome.
- Open source also means it’s FREE, I always say, “If it’s FREE, it’s for ME!!”
- It’s perfect for the small to large business and the individual, it is capable of being a blog and/or a company website.
- If visually appealing is up your alley, WordPress is incredibly “good looking”. It can be customized to your heart’s desire.
- You don’t need to buy expensive software to design your site.
- The best WordPress is self-hosted, which means you have to put your site online via a third-party host and download the free software. The benefit to this is the site is yours, so you can do what you want with it – including make money off of it through advertising.
- Allows you to create multiple pages, categories, and organize your data through posts, archives and tags. This may not mean much to your right now (or it might) but trust me, it’s so important. This allows you to update your information on the fly.
- Allows you to be creative with your site, you can do just about anything with it. From slideshows to galleries, SEO, polls and so much more.
- Has a ginormous library of plug-ins that allows you to grow your site and add features that you would typically pay an arm & a leg for in other typical websites.
- It also has a great community, that helps support you in the forums and helps guide you when you have a question.
If you read all that, then “thank you“! Now you know a little bit more about why we think WordPress ROCKS! Give it a try today, and if you need some help, give us a call. That’s what we love to do!
