A Two Halves Design website always has at least one thing in common with one another… Our sites are built under the principle that form should follow function. A website should have a smart and intuitive architecture, it should be SEO friendly, and most of all, it should be built so that it can grow with your brand.

To accomplish this, we start by building all of our sites on robust content management systems (CMS) platform because that allows our sites to be flexible, scalable, and accessible to our clients.

Flexibility:

 

Our sites are flexible because we use well known, well tested open source CMS platforms to design the architecture. Specifically, we specialize in WordPress Web Design and WordPress Development.

Why WordPress?

First and foremost, we build on popular CMS platforms because we believe that your site should be just that, yours.  We know that we can earn your trust, loyalty and ultimately, your business. But if for some (albeit unimaginable) reason down the road, you decide to go another direction, your site will be built on a trusted platform that is not proprietary, so the management and transfer of the site is always your’s to keep.

Secondly, we believe in efficiency and sticking to what we do best and know that, as a platform, WordPress is tried and true.  We don’t need to rebuild the wheel and as you can see on our about us page, we believe that knowing what you are not good at is just as important as knowing what you are good at.  With over 25% of all websites in the world built on WordPress, it offers a simple, stable and very robust platform that is free to the world.   Entire communities of brilliant programmers have built this platform up with years of testing and hundreds of thousands of users to let us know that it is stable, reliable, and simple for the back and front-end user.   Writing custom code and building a site from scratch just isn’t necessary 98% of the time, so we let the programmers build the code and we specialize in leveraging brilliant work to help our clients build their brand.

Don’t get us wrong… we’re WordPress experts and we can help you most custom templating, troubleshooting, and most other WordPress customization’s…  It’s just that most of the time it isn’t necessary and we believe it simple, easy solutions to help you focus on what you do best.

What’s Up With Themes?

Would you want your kitchen to look the same as it did in 1970? We are guessing not. Just like styles change, your business environment, branding and customer behaviors will likely change over time as well.  One of the many things we love about WordPress is that it is built to serve up content independently from the style of the site using a functionality in the form of themes.  Theming is basically the way to control the entire look as feel of your site with a few clicks and by utilizing themes, we can simply customize our templates to dynamically change the look and feel of your site and your existing content flows right in.

Think of how much cheaper and easier it would be to change the wallpaper  and fixtures in that 70’s kitchen than it would be to gut the walls, plumbing, cabinetry, etc.   The same is true with your website. With advanced theme designs, your site can remain fresh and responsive along with your business.  Same site and content, just a fresh and updated different look and feel.

Scalability:

Another benefit of a Sweet P site is that they are virtually infinitely scalable.  We utilize robust, open source CMS systems that have entire dedicated communities of creative developers which have developed, literally, hundreds of thousands of add-ons (known as plugins or modules) which can help you add rich functionality to your site in no time.

Want to add Ecommerce you your site? Maybe a rich multimedia platform? Want to add a secure client login for your customers? For almost any need, there is solution for that. The possibilities are almost infinite, so you can create a site that will grow with your business. Even better, this also means that you don’t have to pay us exorbitant fees to create custom code for you just to add functionality that you didn’t originally anticipate.

Accessibility:

We also build websites on these CMS platforms to make them accessible to you and your team. We believe that a static web page is a thing of the past and that a site should be a living, growing, and producing tool. Let’s face it, no one knows your business like you do. So shouldn’t you be the one telling the story? We provide the training and the simple, secure log in process so that you or your marketing team can easily go into your site and change or create pages on demand. This means that you are always able to create content that meets your marketing initiatives and that can adapt to your branding, your sales, and your markets needs.
