Technologies We Use - And Love

We trust in open-source technology for much of what we do. The very nature of open-source means something can grow and benefit from the collective creativity and knowledge of people and programmers around the world. It allows for more reliable, sustainable and easily-customizable technology, and that's why we love it.

Content Management Systems

First and foremost, we specialize in WordPress websites. WordPress is the most prominent open-source content management system, already powering over 25% of the world's websites. So it's no doubt that WordPress is almost always our number one recommendation. wordpress logo

Why WordPress?

  • It can be completely customized for a unique website like none other.
  • There are over 10,000 themes to choose from should you want a preset layout/design.
  • There are over 20,000 WordPress plugins - which are essentially pre-developed sets of functionality you can add to your site (ex: adding a Facebook like box, a reservation system, a contact form, etc).
  • WordPress has the ability to be re-skinned (apply a different theme). Meaning you can change the look of your website without actually creating a new website.
  • It's a search engine-friendly platform, being favorable in the eyes of Google.

E-Commerce Systems

Over the years, we've developed an array of different e-commerce solutions, from full online shopping carts for hundreds of products to simple invoice payment functions. Yet, as simple as it may sound, there is expectantly a lot of technology that goes into collecting any sort of payment online, since after all it needs to be done so securely.
