Iain Poulson on May 29, 2019 Hosting WordPress sites can be an expensive business, and you don’t always get what you pay for. Did you know you can run a secure and performant WordPress site on top of a $5/month DigitalOcean droplet?
Let me introduce you to a new service that has completely changed how I host WordPress sites.
SpinupWP is a modern server control panel that can spin up a fresh server on DigitalOcean (or any VPS provider), provisioned with all the software necessary for a fast and secure WordPress site. Adding sites to the server is a piece of cake with SpinupWP – create new WordPress sites (including Multisite), clone sites from existing Git repositories, or just create an empty site.
SpinupWP takes care of SSL certificates, full page caching, automatic backups, Git push to deploy and lots more.
Take a look at the extensive features and video showing how easy it is to get up and running:
Full disclosure: I work with Delicious Brains, but I’ve been a SpinupWP user since day 1, for client and personal sites including wpappstore.com.
I did this a few weeks ago for my own sites and I'm very very happy that I did.
Give @dliciousbrains and @spinupwp all your money.https://t.co/VZGxesjl3H

Spent another few hours playing with @dliciousbrains's #spinupwp. Super impressed so far. Allowed me, a server novice to get site up and running on @digitalocean servers running #WordPress & backing up to AWS S3. Congrats on what will no doubt become a great product.

So, how do you know when it’s time to go with something custom? We’ll review some scenarios when a custom theme is your best bet, along with the effect it can have on your business. But first, let’s take a look at the potential downsides of using readymade themes. Read More

Freddy Muriuki on December 18, 2018 I think you will I agree when I say: Starting a blog is one of the best feelings you’ll ever have. The best part comes when people start reading your articles, commenting and sharing. Take it from me, it is one of the best feelings on this earth, something akin to falling in love.

Eric Karkovack on November 13, 2018 Helping someone learn to help themselves is an incredibly satisfying experience. And it is often part of a web designer’s job description. We build something for our clients and then teach them to how to use it.
A platform such as WordPress makes this possible. However, it’s not always easy. Clients can run the gamut in terms of technical knowledge. Therefore, we must be able to effectively communicate with people of all skill levels.
Plus, there really isn’t such a thing as a “standard” WordPress website. There are plenty of shared traits. But the endless combinations of themes, plugins and customization make every site unique.
How, then, do we go about training our clients to use WordPress? Let’s explore some best practices for passing on our knowledge. Read More
Eric Karkovack on October 2, 2018 A brand-new way to create content is coming to WordPress. The much-ballyhooed Gutenberg editor is set to appear in version 5.0. However, it’s already available in plugin form and boasts 300,000+ users.
There has been no shortage of debate and controversy regarding this new editor. Therefore, it’s important to know what Gutenberg is and is not. This will help you make the best decisions with respect to how it fits in with your existing website.
One of biggest issues for designers is how Gutenberg will affect page builders. On the surface, there does appear to be some shared functionality between them. Does that mean the page builder tools we’re using today will become obsolete? Should we toss them aside for Gutenberg?
Freddy Muriuki on September 25, 2018 One page WordPress themes were once just a fad, but from the look of things, these bad boys are here to stay. The one-pager theme of today is as powerful and flexible as any multi-page WordPress theme.
