Business listings – allow businesses to add their profiles to your website. Enable them to edit their own profiles and add their logo, website address. Creating a complete business directory.
Specialist profile listings – for workers and customers. Enable self-employed workers such as designers, electricians or cleaners to list their profiles including services and availability. Have comprehensive search filters so customers can find exactly what they need. Allow customers to add and edit their profiles too, giving the workers the chance to find the customers. Matching profiles together, a bit like online dating for the self-employed.
WordPress Photographer Portfolios
The whole website becomes a showcase for your portfolio. Quite a lot of design is required here to ensure that the photographs take centre stage. Galleries and sliders are the best way to show off groups of images. Keeping photos in categories make it easy for visitors to find what interests them. Upgrade and sell online or offer private viewings to personal portfolios.

Content marketing is essential these days. Creating a central hub of information with your blog and sharing out to all of the social networks to raise your profile. When your visitors arrive your blog needs to loo gorgeous. Not only do you want to retain the interest of the visitor but you want them to tell their friends about it. Of course it needs to be easy for you to update regularly and that is exactly what WordPress does. Blogging for business or personal, WordPress is arguably the best online blogging platform in the World.
I love being a WordPress designer and am proud, after 18 years, to be able to call myself a specialist.
