Alpine Import Auto Specialists

UPDATE: Our dear friend, Denis, owner of Alpine Import Auto Specialists, passed away from stomach cancer. It was great working with you, Denis, we will miss you.

I’ve been working with Denis at Alpine Import Auto Specialists to develop an easy to use site that he can update regularly. To me, Wordpress was an obvious solution. Denis is a casual computer user but the easy to use back end of Wordpress allows him to add content in a timely fashion. For many small business owners this is the main need when considering how to build a website.

Another area that Wordpress helps is because many small business owners don’t know exactly how they will end up using their website. With a Wordpress base we can configure it to meet the needs of a particular client. I particularly like the fact that we can do it on the fly and all the info we post is still there even when we make major changes to the structure of the site. Having a website that can grow with your needs, and easily too boot, is a real plus.

By using a very basic theme we can work on the structure and functionality before committing to a more individual design. In addition, the ability to add photos to the site can really dress up even the most basic Wordpress theme.

Garden Thyme - Northern Colorado Landscape Gardening

I recently built a Wordpress powered site for friends in Fort Collins, Colorado. Their business, Garden Thyme, is one of the premier landscape gardening companies in Northern Colorado. The need for a site that the two principle people in the company could update regularly led us to a Wordpress powered site. The new version 2.1 has some nice features that take the traditional blog style site and empower it to deliver a more business oriented need while still maintaining ease of use.

I also installed Gallery 2 and integrated it into the Wordpress template. Showing the quality of work is important to the folks at Garden Thyme and Gallery2 is another great program that is easy to use and, in this case, great because of the ease with which it can be integrated into the Wordpress site.

If you need landscaping in Fort Collins or Northern Colorado give Garden Thyme a look!
