Full Website Builds, Migrations, Troubleshooting and Fixes
The WordPress community is extraordinary, and one of the main drivers of its continued success. The expansive array of plugins, themes, and add-ons has truly allowed for nearly infinite permutations to enable the creation of websites far more complex than the original web logging program. There is, however, a dark side to this plethora of customizations — unmaintainability. Oftentimes, a website will be crowded with numerous plugins, page builders, post types, fields, themes, and on and on and on such that institutional knowledge of the administrative back-end is required to make even simple changes to a page on your website. That becomes an enormous headache, and an enormous expense, very quickly. Our approach is to build lightweight systems (only precisely the number of plugins and custom code required, not more and not less) and work to avoid deviating significantly from WordPress’ core competency, website posts. In this way, your update and upgrade processes can be made significantly less expensive going forward.

Arizona Department of Revenue
The State of Arizona was out of compliance with their internal SLAs for customer satisfaction and needed a new website to improve that KPI. After deployment, calls to the department dropped massively.
