CMS/Blog – WordPress

CMS/Blog – WordPress WordPress is a state-of-the-art publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability. WordPress is what you use when you want to work with your blogging software, not fight it.

WordPress started in 2003 with a single bit of code to enhance the typography of everyday writing and with fewer users than you can count on your fingers and toes. Since then it has grown to be the largest self-hosted blogging tool in the world, used on millions of sites and seen by tens of millions of people every day.

We consider Wordpress to be a great option for setting up your blog as well as a great light weight CMS content management system to build your entire site within.

Here are a few basics of what the CMS/Blog will do for you:

WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) Editor
This editor allows you to take control of your website. It allows anyone that has been given permission to edit and add content to all of your pages as well as insert links, images, audio, video, and most common document formats. If you can use a program like Microsoft Word you can use this editor, and don't worry, we'll be training you as well!

Comments
Visitors to your site can leave comments on individual entries, and through Trackback or Pingback can comment on their own site. You can enable or disable comments on a per-post basis.

RSS Feeds
Not only can your News be instantly displayed on other websites, you can also display news from other websites on yours! All with the click of a couple of buttons, visitors can display your News headlines on their site, when their site visitors click, they are taken directly to your site. It's a great way for you to not only increase your sites' traffic, but to get your News read!

Spam protection
Out of the box WordPress comes with very robust tools such as an integrated blacklist and open proxy checker to manage and eliminate comment spam on your blog, and there is also a rich array of plugins that can take this functionality a step further.

Multiple authors
WordPress' highly advanced user system allows up to 10 levels of users, with different levels having different (and configurable) privileges with regard to publishing, editing, options, and other users.

Search & Site Map functionality
If you need to provide visitors with search capabilities or an easy to read site map of your content, the CMS can be set up to include these functions built directly into your design!

Contact Us Form
Your 'Contact Us' page will automatically include all of your contact information plus an email form that allows people to send you their name, email address and a message.

Testimonials

Sundog Media lifted a huge burden off my shoulders during the initial stages of developing my business. Initially I, like many beginning entrepreneurs, believed I could accomplish all the start-up tasks myself. I wasted many hours toiling over the website development process. I soon realized that developing a professional website would be extremely time consuming and beyond my abilities. Deciding to turn over the development of my website, logo, letterhead and business cards to Sundog Media was the smartest decision I made during the start-up phase of my business. As an added benefit, my business walked away with an “identity”, which is more valuable than any of the tangibles I paid for!!
