Tools for success
Hosting
We have been experimenting with various hosting for years. For the most part we have managed our own hosting environment for sites that we built and maintain. Recently we started using WPEngine for some of our production sites and are very pleased with the results. As you probably have noticed by the content on this site and the very fact that we have a WordPress inventory plugin in the first place, our goal is to put you in the driver seat. To that end we believe in “eating our own dog food” wherever we can and hosting is no exception. By using WPEngine we believe that we have found at least one hosting company that can provide you with all of the hosting tools that you could possibly need to manage your own website; security, backups, speed, and support are all top notch.
Genesis and Studiopress for themes
Genesis is the framework that all Studiopress themes are based and an excellent out of the box solution. It is also a great framework if you would like to get your hands dirty and build your own child theme.
Dynamik Theme for Genesis (Commercial Theme)
The Dynamik Theme for Genesis is both a child theme for Genesis and a theme builder. This means that you can create just about anything you want without having to know coding at all. Don’t get me wrong, knowing some basic CSS can definitely help, but you can learn little bits as you go and be just fine. I have had a lot of fun using this theme and can copy the design of most sites without knowing much CSS at all.
