A successful website doesnât just look great. It's easy to maintain!
We build websites using the WordPress platform and the Genesis Framework. WordPress is the most popular open-source Content Management System in the world. It makes editing your website as easy as editing a Word document. The Genesis Framework is a tool for efficiently developing complex websites. Instead of re-inventing the wheel, it letâs you customize whatâs unique (like the look and feel), while maintaining a clean, secure and well-built code base. This website is built upon the Genesis Framework and the Academy Pro Theme.
Genesis Theme Framework
Hereâs a few reasons why we use Genesis:
- Genesis is Search Engine Optimized: You want to make sure that youâre ranking well in the search engines so readers, customers, and clients can find you easily. Genesisâ clean, optimized code is important for achieving the best rankings possible.
- Genesis Offers Great-Looking Turn-key Designs: You want a sleek, professional designâwithout paying a fortune for it. The multitude of Genesis turn-key child themes give you an array of beautiful frames for your content.
- Genesis Gives You State-of-the-Art Security: StudioPress, the Genesis developer, hired security expert and core WordPress developer Mark Jaquith to make sure the Genesis Framework has the best security possible.
- It's Customizable: Genesis offers features to make it simple to set up your site exactly the way you want it. There isn't a design yet that canât be built with Genesis.
- The Code is Reusable: Since all the sites I build use the same codebase, I can leverage everything Iâve done for past clients on your project. See my blog for code examples.

Each child theme includes detailed instructions for managing its specifics. These instructions are found on the Appearance menu in the WordPress admin area.
WordPress Hosting
My favorite affordable host is SiteGround. Prices start as low as $3.95 per month for Linux hosting. Their servers are fast and they offer 24/7 support in case anything goes wrong. If you have a high traffic site and are worried about using a shared host, I still highly recommend SiteGround for their dedicated or virtual private server hosting environments. They are, in my opinion, the best hosting option for WordPress.
Disclosure: I am an affiliate for SiteGround, but unlike some, I only recommend services Iâve used and like. My personal websites have been hosted by them since 2003.
