So Many Ways To Skin The WordPress Cat
I’ve been using WordPress as my exclusive content management system for years now. I honestly don’t even remember how long it’s been.

Email Is A Necessary Evil
I honestly don’t know what I would do without email. It’s definitely a love hate relationship. Every time I try to use a project management system, it seems so much easier to send an email for what needs to be done. Though if the email isn’t done right, it’s worse than using a confusing project…

Mental Health and Entrepreneurship
I’m a very positive person. I don’t often feel depressed. I’m a “the glass is half full” kind of guy. But more and more I’m hearing about how depression and mental health is becoming a big topic not only in my entrepreneur circles, but in business as a whole. This is a good thing. Having…

So many people are complaining about Matt Mullenweg and his “aspirations” for Automattic and WordPress.com. I don’t have issues with any of those “aspirations” or his getting investment from Salesforces. What I do have a problem with is that Matt has co-opted and confused the brand of WordPress. There is the self-hosted and open source…

Teaching Your Clients “How To Fish”
Teaching your clients how to fish after you build them a website is very important. They might still turn to you to do most updates, but they should have a sense of what goes into updating and keeping their site functional. With WordPress there is no reason why the client can’t have some type of…

CBD And Online Sales
I’ve done two sites for entrepreneurs entering the CBD space. Both times I’ve seen that it’s an uphill battle getting them the exposure they need due to the regulations around the sales and publicity of CBD. Google doesn’t let CBD companies use their Google Ads platform, nor does Snapchat and others. Facebook is loosening up…
