Custom WordPress

Posted on August 20, 2009 | Filed Under Smart Business, Website Design, WordPress

What is the difference between Customizing an existing WordPress Theme and Designing a Unique (sometimes called “Custom”) WordPress Theme?

I’m asked this question alot…

The most important thing to remember when you’re comparing prices, is to make sure you’re comparing “apples to apples” when it comes to what you’re getting.

website design and developmentWhether you download a “free” theme from the WordPress Theme Gallery, or you purchase the license for a theme…you already have a majority of the work done for your design. The coding of the theme is there, you just need it “tweaked” to be what you want for your website. That “tweaking” means creating/adding/editing some graphics such as your logo, buttons, headers, etc. and editing the color scheme in most cases. If you’ve found a theme that meets most of your needs, there’s no reason to pay the higher rates associated with something totally custom!

Using Wordpress

Posted on October 7, 2008 | Filed Under SEO, Social Networking, WordPress

 

I get asked, “Can I move my blog to WordPress?”. The answer is “Yes!” And to the relief of so many bloggers…it’s EASY! Wordpress has an “Import” option that allows you to move all of your blog posts from their current host to your new WordPress blog! I did this myself 2 years ago, and it was a breeze…now all of my blog traffic is “my” traffic…not blogger.com’s.

So, the next question becomes, “When is it a good idea to move my blog to WordPress?”. Well, if you have your own domain already, or you are a business owner—as soon as possible! Why? Because you’re losing valuable content that could help your Search Engine rankings! Having your blog on your own domain rather than with a service (such as blogger.com) keeps your readers “in your circle”, and on your site! And all of that content will draw the search engines to YOUR DOMAIN, rather than to someone else’s site and then obscurely to yours.
