Annie Wolock will be presenting “Creating an Effective WordPress Website” on Saturday, October 15 at 11:05am in the West Conference Room.
Why do use WordPress?
Using WordPress allows for expedient implementation of great websites. My clients all really love the ease of making their own website updates.
When and how did you start using WordPress?
The very first WordPress website Keystone create was in about 2010, when we created a blog for one of our customers. Back then they were fairly cumbersome to customize, but we did! We love how easy WordPress has become to make a really great site.
What would you tell someone to convince them to attend a WordCamp?
The line up this year is outstanding. Come learn about WP and how to best leverage it!
Give an example of a cool WordPress project you have worked on recently.
Last year Keystone created a completely custom WP site for the Washtenaw County Medical Society. We created a complete custom design and created a physician directory for the county. WordPress was simple to extend and the client loves their new site. Their main goal was to reduce customer phone calls in and the new site did just that!
Tell us something awesome about yourself that is not WordPress related.
I’ve been successfully running Keystone Media for over 22 years. I love having my own business on Main Street, Ann Arbor.
