Here’s a small gallery of some of the sites I’ve built.
[nggallery id=1]
Here’s what’s included and what I believe…
Structure:
Basic structure should be a WordPress platform (running the most current version) with setup of automatic security scan for possible holes and inaccurate permissions.
Hosting and Domain Name Registration:
I believe strongly that you should “own” everything about your site. That includes not only the domain name but the hosting as well. I’ve never understood why developers charge you to build your site and then charge you more to host it.
Some people are paying hundreds of dollars a month for website hosting to their web developer. Did you know that typical hosting costs around $5 a month. (really)
I’ll guide you to where and how to setup domain registration and hosting if you like. Whatever you do… Just don’t
Here’s a few hosting options I really like:

Plugins:
18+ essential WordPress Plugins will be installed, modified and activated. Plugins fall into a few different categories. Some plugins enhance the blog look and feel. Some plugins make it easy for readers to share with others. Some plugins help push the content to new people outside your sphere. There are also a few plugins that help maximize SEO (search engine optimization). Not only do these need to be installed, they must be properly setup and I’ll teach you to properly use them for blog posts. This also includes setting up a proper sitemap.xml file and auto submission to the search engines.
Cost: Starting at $1,000 Prepaid (not including hosting)
