<p>I&#8217;ve been in this business in one capacity or another (and by &#8220;this business&#8221; I mean I.T.) for about a thousand years.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m oldschool.</p>
<p>I won&#8217;t bore you with stories of how excited I was about my fast, powerful new 386 in the early 90s, but anyway, suffice it to say, &#8220;we&#8217;ve come a long way, baby&#8221;.</p>
<p>Nowadays, it&#8217;s truly astonishing to me what GREAT VALUE I can offer my clientele by creating a WordPress website, starting with an AWESOME studiopress.com premium theme, and then customizing it to the point where it is exactly what the client wants.</p>
<p>I can offer this service for $400-$500 because I do it over and over again and I am FAST (now &#8211; LOL &#8211; not in the early days).</p>
<p>I do remember the heady days of the dot com bubble and it used to take a team of programmers/designers  MONTHS of planning meetings, research, coding, thinking, troubleshooting, etc. etc., to come up with a really perfect relational database and a bulletproof CMS (content management system) back end.</p>
<p>This is what I can do for that very same $400!</p>
<p>The future is so bright, we have to wear shades, WordPress users!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m an evangelist &#8211; I&#8217;m here to help.</p>
<p>Use WordPress, learn it, get to know the plugins, tinker with it, and you will love it for its beautiful, intelligent self.</p>
