WordPress Development
When beginning to think about a new website or a website refresh, it can be difficult to know where to start. There are so many options for websites on the market. Between all the different agencies to choose from, you also have countless platforms to choose from as well—Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, Drupal, GoDaddy Site Builder—the list goes on.
At B&B Media, we take high-quality website development seriously. We focus on your goals first and foremost. A great website isn’t just one that looks incredible—it’s one that meets your objectives.
From there, we focus on delivering a website that loads quickly, functions perfectly on all browsers and devices, and is easy to use for you and your audience. We do all that while balancing your budget and making sure we stretch your marketing dollars as far as we can.
That’s why we choose WordPress for all of our websites.
WordPress is a powerful, robust CMS that allows keeping your website’s content up-to-date simple and easy. WordPress is the most popular CMS on the web and offers an extensive library of plugins that can expand your website’s functionality, making future scalability painless. Best of all, plugins can help avoid huge custom programming bills.
Websites are an ever-growing asset, so the site will build today will continue to grow and evolve. WordPress allows us to build websites in phases, or iterations. Today, maybe your website is a simple brochure of services for your business. It works to establish credibility and authenticity.
But what if you need to add E-commerce later on? Or a complex application form? What about lead magnets, email integration, digital marketing funnels, and more?
Yes, WordPress’s vast library of free and premium plugins makes it easy to continually build onto your website without extensive custom development bills. So, whether you want to build a robust website today, or start small and add on later, you can rest easy knowing that the sky is the limit.
WordPress Themes
In addition to WordPress’s extensive library of plugins, they also have thousands of themes to choose from. A lot of agencies want to custom design and build websites, but between blueprinting, designing, developing, and testing, this can be time-consuming and expensive. I should know, I used to build websites like that.
At B&B, we like to use high quality themes on our website builds.
Why?
Bottom line: it saves you tremendous amounts of time and money. Themes are already designed and built to be gorgeous and mobile optimized. Once we find a theme that represents and vibes with your brand, all we have to do is install it, customize it with your brand logos and colors, and begin adding content.
This process will save you $3,000 to $5,000 easy, depending on which agency you might work with.
Can themes be customized? Absolutely! While we want to take advantage of the fact that they’re pre-built, we can hide and rearrange sections, choose from different layout options, and customize the look and function through custom development or additional plugins.
At the end of the day, it’s all about making the most of your budget. Why spend your entire marketing budget on a custom-developed website and leave nothing left for digital marketing, ad spend, search engine optimization, or ongoing enhancements?
Ongoing Hosting, Support, & Retainers
A great website is one that stays secure, up-to-date, and operating smoothly. While WordPress does allow you and your team to make your own updates, B&B also offers ongoing support, software updates, backups, and retainers for assistance with content posting and further development.
We offer dedicated and shared hosting options, both of which are highly secured. We also offer scalable hosting solutions to match the size and bandwidth of your website. Best of all, we throw in free Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificates on every site we manage. This saves our clients hundreds of dollars every year.
