When it was clear Apple and Flash were not going top play well together on the internet playground, we made the jump to WordPress.  Longevity was the prime factor when we chose WordPress as our preferred platform and prime recommendation for our clients.  As a small firm we needed to reduce long term development time and allow for our clients growth while keeping their cost at a minimum.  With the speed and sometimes surprise of change when it comes to internet technologies being an early adopter, no matter the care taken, can be half research and half gamble, we did our best to reduce the chance factor.  It looks like we made the right decision.

WordPress completely dominates top 100 blogs.

Preview: Gulf Coast Jewish Family & Community Services or GCJFCS presented us with a “massive” rebranding problem: take six existing, well established branches of their services, all with different branding, and house them under one umbrella.  We created a multi-site environment which allows each branch a separate control panel for content development and presentation while allowing an overall administration to the main organization.  Although the subsites are still in the process of building out their content, the main construction is complete.  We are currently developing a cohesive set of logo’s that will further tie the branches together visually.  Stay tuned…
