What We Have To Offer
Having created web sites for individuals, schools, universities and small businesses over a period of many years, we have come to realise that each and every owner of a website has two things in common.
- They all want to embed their own ‘personality’ and ‘feel’ onto the site.
- They want to be able to add content to the site themeselves without having to rely on assistance every single time.
At one point we had a wide and diverse selection of designs available and on display here at FreshlyPressed. It looked excellent [if we may say so ourselves] and we were all very proud of our designs, but it did not take us too long to discover that all of these designs were more for us, than for you.
Consequently, we knew we needed a new direction for our designs on offer.
Number two was easily covered, as we had always and still do, promote the use of the fantastic piece of software known as WordPress. It is flexible, diverse and can be set up to run on personl sites and is also a fantastic CMS [Content Management System]. This allows the site owner [and anybody else you authorise] to add content to your site with a minimum of fuss. No need to get in contact with your technical person and wait for days for it to be done. You simply log in and make the changes yourself and not a sign of any html code in sight.
Number One provided us with a few challenges, mainly because we needed to find a solution that would fill the needs of the new user right through to the advanced web designer. But, [and yes, we are very excited about this] we think we have found exactly what we need. We won’t go into all the technical details, but to summarise, we have a theme and other components, which allows you – the site user – to not only add your own content, but additionally, you can also have a major hand in how the site looks and feels. Again, you do not have to know anything about code.
Of course, for those of you who do not want to have to do anything else but provide the content for your sites, we will do EVERYTHING for you. Our packages all include support for your site and this means that not only do you have our stable and reliable web hosting, but you also have full support for every element of your online experience.

[Original article source: JamesICT] Permalinks often confuse people and this is probably because the term may sound a bit technical when first getting started with WordPress. However, when you think about it, the name does explain their purpose. It simply makes the ‘link’ in the url a pretty ‘permanent’ one. For example, without permalinks a [...]

[Original article source: JamesICT] Two plugins that I highly recommend are: 1.

[Original article source: JamesICT] One of the latest features of WordPress is the inclusion of post revisions [since about version 2.6 if memory serves me correctly] and whilst I can see the use of it in some instances, personally, I would rather it was not automatically enabled. Basically, it is an autosave function and I [...]
