This WordPress CMS was built with the option for the client to update it themselves in future if they wish.

Features include

• Image and text slider on the Home page
• Header image created from existing logo

Built on WordPress, this site has a number of user-friendly features:

• A feature whereby the company’s clients can add feedback or testimonials which are then displayed on the site
• A video demonstration of how the products function
• An Order Now call-to-action graphic

This WordPress project was a redevelopment of an existing site to simplify management of the content by the owners.

• Minor pages hidden for the main menu and linked to from the footer only

At the time of writing the site is in English only, but the site is built to accommodate others at the click of a button.

Moving your blog (or CMS website) can often be a pain. Believe me, I know. Over the years, I have moved my personal blog from Blogspot to WordPress.com to self-hosted with one company then to another host.

The number of different scenarios is what can lead to confusion: Moving from WordPress.com to WordPress.org (self-hosted); from one hosting company to another; perhaps to a different location on the same host; from one domain to another.

You may be asking yourself can WordPress be moved with zero down-time? Will I need to reinstall themes and/or plugins? Will visitors find my new WordPress site? Is the move a good time to upgrade WordPress to the latest version?

There is excellent documentation available from many sources to guide you through the moving process and answer your questions. The WordPress codex on moving WordPress is the first port of call. It is also advisable to consult the tutorials listed at the foot of that guide. [I have listed some more references at the foot of this post]

However, if you feel some of the technicalities are beyond your grasp or you simply couldn’t be bothered learning new skills Glic I.T. can help. The cost will be in the range of €30-€70 depending on the complexity of the move and what additional functionality you wish to add to your site during it.
