Technology services company East Summit, Inc (DBA ESI Web Services) has launched a campaign to reveal the true power of WordPress to the small and medium enterprises that can benefit most from its features.
Although WordPress is great for blogging, it also has sophisticated content management capabilities built into its core. Developers can create complex, powerful websites more easily than they can on their own or with competing packages like Drupal and Joomla. Best of all, clients can update their own site content without having to pay a web designer every time they need to change a commawithout having to learn any HTML or PHP.
That’s why WordPress won Packt Publishing’s Best Open Source CMS Award in 2009 (http://www.packtpub.com/award)]. And that’s why more and more SMBs are turning to WordPress when it’s time to build their websites.
Marina Marsh, president of ESI Web Services, explains: “When clients ask us if this can be done or that can be added to their site, we never have to say no. With WordPress it is possible to add, upgrade, expand without spending a fortune. A complex site with a lot of custom coding added, which would typically cost $ 25,000+ if an enterprise CMS were used, costs $ 10,000 – $ 12,000 with WordPress. We can create a fully functional online business solution with features like shopping cart, membership area, directory listing, newsletter subscription, forum, SEO and much more for under $ 6,000. Plus it is very easy for clients to understand and use the admin tools and it requires very little training to get them up to speed.”
WordPress has the flexibility to serve many different types of businesses. ESI has experienced no problems meeting the stringent security requirements of financial services firms when using WordPress. The company’s developers are just putting the finishing touches on an e-commerce site for InWeave Rugs and a directory site for New Mexico Film Affiliates. Other customers include such diverse entities as Dallas Birth and Women’s Center , Managed Petroleum ,
