Ability to Post to Facebook and Twitter

With the social networking epidemic greatly upon us, customers need to be able to share their information, posts, pages and images easily with social networks. We have created the ability to use a custom thumbnail in Facebook sharing, as well as integrated with common plugins the ability for the website owner to be able to share with Facebook and Twitter.  While these things are not rocket science they become complicated for an end user. They become a thing “to-do” in a long list of things associated with creating content. Anything you can do as a developer to make the user’s life easier is why we became developers in the first place. At least for me. I always strive to find ways to make my clients experiences better. That is one thing you get when you have your WordPress website designed in Chicago, IL Good ole’ United States. Ingenuity.

Ability to Add Subscription based Video

One client needed to integrate three different systems to create a three tiered subscription service, E-commerce website. We used our talents to create a streamlined approach the client never dreamed of. From website homepage, to checkout, to login the approach was second to none. There were three different levels of video membership and if you upgraded your account you got to see all the videos on the previous level

Spotlight:Custom Categories and thumbnails

The ability to create posts for artists (or another topic of your choice), selected the featured image for that page and have it show up in a specific section of your WordPress website. While this sounds a little complicated we have it down to a science. We call it “spotlight”. We use it to show artists, portfolios, Video Tutorials and more. How you want or need to implement it is as easy as creating some new CSS for your specific website, creating a category, assigning some posts and featured images.

Easy to use SEO & SEO Tuneup

We use a plugin that allows our clients to change the title, keywords, and page description that is shown in the search engine on a per page or post basis. We use our SEO Tuneup to make sure our clients websites are “out of the box” SEO friendly. We like our clients learning new things and feel a sort of gratification when they post new articles to their website, when they come to use and tell us they understand more now than ever before, we have done our job. We do not create solutions to nickle and dime our customers we create solutions that can and want to actually use.

Lead Management through WordPress

Since 2003 we have worked with a variety of customers, business models and industries to increase lead management through their websites. We have set up Google Analytics, keyword tracking and SEO reporting to help these clients be successful with both their websites, and increase traffic for their selected keywords. Our Lead management captures contact information into WordPress and sends you an email everytime someone fills out your contact form. Our system has the ability to capture keywords, or if you need an actual CRM and mailing list integration we can do that for you too.

Custom Thumbnail for Facebook

One of our newest features is the ability to select what image you would like to use for your thumbnail when posting to Facebook or other social media. We have added custom thumbnail code as per the Facebook developer’s guide and integrated this with WordPress’ “featured Image”. Now you can select a featured image and it will be passed along to Facebook as per their requirements. No more hunting around or wondering “Where did that thumbnail come from.”
