WORDPRESS VS SAAS PART 3
Costs and When is Either the Right Solution? In Part 1 of this series we discussed having a website on a web builder platform (SaaS or Software as a Service) is like renting a home and using the WorpPress platform is comparable to owning a home (so…renting vs owning you website). In Part 2 we
Farrow
I work with small businesses, many with less than 10 employees. These businesses typically have a unique spin on their services and are passionate about what they do. My job is to bring that out on their website so that it’s easy to understand quickly. One such client is Farrow, owned by a regenerative farmer, who uses lard
Wordpress vs saaS Part 2
Limitations vs Maintenance What are the differences in website builders, AKA SaaS – Software as a Service (e.g. Wix, Squarespace, Weebly, Shopify…) – and WordPress – my platform of choice? Along with not owning your own website (which is a big deal as discussed in Part 1), the other differences are the limitations that SaaS
WordPress Vs Saas Part 1
Renting vs Owning Your website I get a lot of questions about the differences in website builders (SasS – Software as a Service) platforms – and my platform of choice, WordPress. [web builder examples are: Wix, SquareSpace, Weebly, Shopify…] A website is like a home for a business and the site’s hosting is it’s neighborhood.
Goodier Creative

Highland Urgent Care and Family Medicine
In 2020 I designed a website for a local doctor’s office, HIGHLAND URGENT CARE AND FAMILY MEDICINE. When COVID tests became available in the late summer, the practice was one of the first in town to offer testing. Within a few days we had new pages on the site with a way to schedule the test,

Themes vs Templates
Not all Wordpress themes are created equal. Some themes are more like templates which limit the design of a website. This can be as bad for design as using any DIY web builder service like Wix, Squarespace or Weebly. While these make it easier for people with less design skills, it’s the reason most DIY
WordPress Themes
Don’t make your customers wait on your website WordPress uses themes to customize the layout and design of a website. There are 1000s of free and premium themes available. Changing a theme won’t change the content of the website, just how that content is displayed. I use the Generate Press theme with Generate Blocks which
On-Site vs Off-Site SEO
“Do you do SEO?” is a question that I get asked a lot. In short, I configure the on-site search engine optimization for the sites that I build. On-site SEO are things that can be configured for better SEO on the website itself like page structure, alt text on images, proper tagging of elements, site
